Add Deployment (Public type)
Deployments trigger events when a specific reference (branch, SHA, tag) is requested, allowing external services to respond accordingly. InstaWP lets you add your public repositories from any Git provider (including Github, Gitlab, and Bitbucket) to your InstaWP account.
In this documentation, we will explore the steps to add a new Git public repository.
Let’s get started 🚀
Step 1: Go to Settings and select the Deployments option from the drop-down list. Now, click Add New from the top right corner of the screen.
Step 2: A modal window will appear, requesting you to enter the values in the following fields:
Fields | Description |
|---|---|
Repo Type | Select Public for the public Git repository. |
Repo URL | Paste the “HTTPS URL” of your public repository (i.e.,https://github.com/yourname/yourplugin.git). |
Branch | Mention the branch to which this deployment points. |
Destination Folder | The folder to which your repository content will be downloaded. |
Post Deployment Commands | Shell commands that will run after the git repository is cloned (for example, composer install, npm install, npm run dev, wp-config set WP_DEBUG true --raw). |
👉 Note: The Post-deployment commands feature is available in the Professional plan and above. View Pricing here. If you are not logged in, use this link to view pricing.
Now, click Public **for the Repo Type field, and fill out the options with the values and click **Add. It'll be added immediately.
