The Baibulo project family is a set of utilities that allow projects to leverage parallel frontend deployments on one environment, saving costs and speeding up development process.
Assuming your project uses one of the Baibulo backend solutions first install the baibulo-deploy package
$ npm install --save baibulo-deploy
Next create 2 scripts in your project.json file:
"scripts": {
"deploy": "baibulo deploy --dir dist --url http://server/assets",
"release": "baibulo deploy --dir dist --version release --url http://server/assets"
}
In the first case the branch name will be used to deploy files to server.
However if the branch name is master
then the deploy
script is equal to release
.
The following command-line options are available:
usage: baibulo deploy [options]
--dir dir Directory with content to upload [./]
--url context * Root URL to deploy to (for example http://server/assets)
--method method Specify method to use to transfer the data (default: PUT)
--version Version (defaults to git branch - master==release)
--ignored Coma-separated list of file names that you want to skip
This list initially contains Web.config so there is no need
to specify it if all you need is to exclude Web.config files.
However if you use this option it acts as an override and you
do need to include it too
* - required option
The deployment utility uses HTTP PUT
to upload content to server and the Version
header to pass information about the version to upload. It is essentially the same as using cURL but on a tree
of files instead of just one file at a time.
