Uses @jovrtn's WP Engine Deploy Github Action. Adds in a few BUBS specific build instructions into the script executed by Docker.

Original Readme

GitHub Action for WP Engine Git Deployments

An action to deploy your repository to a WP Engine site via git. Read more about WP Engine's git deployment support.

Example GitHub Action workflow

workflow "Deploy to WP Engine" {
  on = "push"
  resolves = ["Git Push to Production"]
}

action "Git Push to Production" {
  uses = "jovrtn/github-action-wpengine-git-deploy@master"
  env = {
    WPENGINE_ENVIRONMENT_NAME   = "my-cool-site-production"
  }
  secrets = [
    "WPENGINE_SSH_KEY_PRIVATE",
    "WPENGINE_SSH_KEY_PUBLIC"
  ]
}

Environment Variables & Secrets

Required

Name Type Usage
WPENGINE_ENVIRONMENT_NAME Environment Variable The name of the WP Engine environment you want to deploy to.
WPENGINE_SSH_KEY_PRIVATE Secret Private SSH key of your WP Engine git deploy user. See below for SSH key usage.
WPENGINE_SSH_KEY_PUBLIC Secret Public SSH key of your WP Engine git deploy user. See below for SSH key usage.

Optional

Name Type Usage
WPENGINE_ENVIRONMENT Environment Variable Defaults to production. You shouldn't need to change this, but if you're using WP Engine's legacy staging, you can override the default and set to staging if needed.
LOCAL_BRANCH Environment Variable Set which branch in your repository you'd like to push to WP Engine. Defaults to master.

Setting up your SSH keys

  1. Generate a new SSH key pair as a special deploy key. The simplest method is to generate a key pair with a blank passphrase, which creates an unencrypted private key.
  2. Store your public and private keys in your GitHub repository as new 'Secrets' (under your repository settings), using the names WPENGINE_SSH_KEY_PRIVATE and WPENGINE_SSH_KEY_PUBLIC respectively. In theory, this replaces the need for encryption on the key itself, since GitHub repository secrets are encrypted by default.
  3. Add the public key to your target WP Engine environment.
  4. Per the WP Engine documentation, it takes about 30-45 minutes for the new SSH key to become active.
