I think a more common use case than doing deploys by pushing to a different remote is to send git repo webhooks on PR merges to main to an API that has a deploy key and can fetch the repo itself. This afaik is missing from most PaaS tools (CapRover excluded, but it has been illegally relicensed to non-open-source). Perhaps watchtower or something could replace the functionality?

Didnt know ... "CapRover has built in anonymous usage analytics starting v1.11" https://github.com/caprover/caprover/blob/master/TERMS_AND_CONDITIONS.md https://github.com/caprover/caprover/blob/master/TERMS_AND_C... https://github.com/caprover/caprover/issues/1852 https://github.com/caprover/caprover/issues/1852 Was looking at CapRover to see if it has REST API Looks shaddy

  You scared me for a moment, as I've just setup a new VPS with CapRover and migrated all my projects from heroku. Doesn't look too shady for me, there's a oneliner to disable analytics, it seems enough for me.

    You still have to agree to the terms and conditions of use of the nonfree application which can of course change at any time without notice. It’s a time bomb. I’m thinking of forking it and adding all his dumb and easy table stakes features (2fa etc) that he is trying to gate as subscriptionware.

      If you want to contribute any of that to piku, we’ll welcome it. Might take a bit to review and merge, but we’re always looking for non-breaking improvements

  It’s not even open core. The solo maintainer simply relicensed the entire repo to a nonfree license without consent of the copyright holders to all the external contributions.

Actually, this is how I deploy my static websites: piku in lazy mode handles GitHub hooks, pulls the source and renders them out to cloud storage, then kills all workers and idles again.

  are there docs for this setup?

    It’s just a 10-line script, I’ll see if I can sanitize it and add to the docs (one of the samples already does something similar, you can peek at the repos to get ideas)

      That script sounds super useful!

  Does it support deploy keys, or are your website source repos public?
  - rcarmo 2y ago
    The piku micro-app that does the deployment is just a 10-line Bottle app that validates the GitHub hook and does a git pull with a private SSH key, so yes.
