ShinyDeploy

ShinyDeploy is a deployment tool written in PHP and JavaScript. It's main goal is to provide an easy way to deploy files from your GIT repositories to your servers.

Features

Graphical user interface

All action from adding servers and repositories to deployments can be managed from simple and easy to use GUI.

Secure data storage

Sensitive data like usernames and passwords are encrypted before storing them in database. Decryption is only possible with a password you need to enter during login.

List changed files before deploy

Before deploying to a target server you can list all files that have been changed since last deploy. Using a diff-view you can even review changes before uploading.

Execute tasks before/after deploy

It is possible to define simple ssh commands to be executed before/after each deployment. This feature may be useful to re-start applications, build css/js or do whatever is necessary to deploy your application.

Webhook support

Once a Deployment is created you can generate an API-URL. Using this URL you can trigger deployments directly from GitHub, Bitbucket or Gitea as soon as you push changes to your repositories.

Open source

The whole project is open-source and MIT license. This way you can host your own instance in your local network and don't have to worry about giving sensitive information away. And of course you can modify the application in any way you like.
