An easy way to deploy your GitHub repository to Caprover every time your main branch is updated.
First, you need to set up the Caprover password in Github. Go to Secrets and create a new repository secret. Name it “CAPROVER_PASSWORD” and use your Caprover account password.
Create a file to .github/workflows/deploy.yml and paste the following contents. Make sure to change PATH_TO_CAPROVER, YOUR_APP_NAME and possibly your branch name.
name: Create and publish a Docker image to Caprover
on:
push:
branches: ['master']
jobs:
build-and-push-image:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout repository
uses: actions/checkout@v3
with:
fetch-depth: 0
- name: Set up npm
uses: actions/setup-node@v2
with:
node-version: '14'
- name: Install caprover
run: npm install -g caprover
- name: Caprover Deploy
run: caprover deploy -h 'https://PATH_TO_CAPROVER' -p '${{ secrets.CAPROVER_PASSWORD }}' -b 'master' -a 'YOUR_APP_NAME'
