launchkit v0.2.4

LaunchKit

This command line utility is useful for providing interface for deploying to various providers (currently only supports Zeit.co's Now).

Usage

Install

using Yarn

$ yarn global add launchkit

using NPM

$ npm i -g launchkit

See detailed usage instructions

$ launchkit -h

Deploy

Intended usage is to create a launchkit.yml in the root of your project's repository using the syntax described below and encrypt using a secret stored in .key file.

ProjectRoot/.key

Your secret token phrase

ProjectRoot/launchkit.yml

default:
  deployer: now
  options:
    alias: dev.example.com
    token: [your Now API token]
    vars: 
      NODE_ENV: development
production:
  options:
    alias: example.com

Encrypt

This encrypts the file so you can keep it in version control like .git repository and keep different configurations for different branches/features you work on. The only thing you then need to share with your team is the .key file.

$ launchkit encrypt launchkit.yml

Update config var

$ launchkit update production options.vars.NODE_ENV=production

View current config

$ launchkit view
default:
  deployer: now
  options:
    alias: dev.example.com
    token: [your Now API token]
    vars: 
      NODE_ENV: development
production:
  options:
    alias: example.com
    vars:
      NODE_ENV: production

Config

// The general schema of the file should look like this
// Note that any config is deeply merged with "default" if present
MainConfig {
  [envName]: EnvConfig,
  default: EnvConfig,
}

// Individual configs for each branch
EnvConfig {
  deployer: string,
  protected: boolean,
  options: DeployerOptions,
}

DeployerOptions {
  // ...any data that the provider might need to deploy
}

// Only the "now" provider is currently supported:
NowDeployerOptions {
  token: string
  // Aliasing pattern using Mustache, see example below. Can also be a list
  // of strings if you need to alias to multiple URLs.
  alias: string
  vars: {
    [TARGET_ENV_VAR]: ""
  }
}

You can include environment variables in the configuration (options.alias and options.vars) using handlebars. This feature is currently only available for the Now deployer.
