This repo will contain the code behind the EUS CLI. This command line tool will be primarily used to integrate Github with deployments to our AWS server.
Right now, the development flow is very awkward as it involves running scp manually a whole lot. This CLI will make developing websites hosted by the EUS easier.
Please report any bugs or issues with this CLI to [email protected]
To use this CLI, simply run pip install . from the root of this repository.
Then, it can be used via the command eus in a similar fashion to Git.
There are a variety of commands you can use with this CLI, all of which are described when you type eus into your command line terminal.
Some common functionalities of git are used by this CLI. For example:
- add
- status
- commit
- push
You can use these exactly the same way you would with git. For more information, visit this page.
Most of the time, we want to update websites on our server. There are two interesting commands to do this:
-
get: simply run
eus get, then specify the name of the project you want. It will copy all the files from that project to your current directory. The "name of the project" refers to its name on our server as you would find it under/srv/www/. -
deploy: used by running
eus deploy. You will be faced with a few parameters, namely...
... Source: This refers to the path on your machine to the files you want to copy. For example, if I want to update the potato website, I would go in the folder which contains the index.html for potato on my local computer and put . as the Source.
... Destination: In the previous example, this would be potato. This matches to the same thing as the project name for eus get: the project's name on the server under /srv/www/<project>.
Both of these commands will prompt you to input your username and password. These credentials refer to your server credentials.
- create: COMING SOON (will be used to create a new website based on our existing templates.
