Deploy

By using site profiles, Awestruct can also deploy the resulting site using rsync.

Profile configuration

In your _config/site.yml, you should define a profiles block, and a profile for each deployment environment. The names are arbitrary.

Make sure base_url is set correctly for each profile.

profiles:
  development:
  staging:
    base_url: http://staging.awestruct.org/
  production:
    base_url: http://awestruct.org/

To these profiles, add a deploy hash with host and path properties to specify where the resulting site should be copied to using rsync.

profiles:
  development:
  staging:
    base_url: http://staging.awestruct.org/
    deploy:
      host: awestruct.org
      path: /var/www/domains/awestruct.org/staging/htdocs/ 
  production:
    base_url: http://awestruct.org/
    deploy:
      host: awestruct.org
      path: /var/www/domains/awestruct.org/www/htdocs/

Deployment

First, make sure that you've built the site for the correct profile.

$ rm -Rf _site
$ awestruct -P production

Then deploy

$ awestruct -P production --deploy

The rsync command executed looks like

rsync -rv --delete _site/ #{host}:#{path}
