Great! Youve built your website, and now you just need to deploy it. There are
various ways that this could be done - from (S)FTP, to SCP and rsync, to running
commands like `git pull` and `composer install` directly on the server which is
not ideal.
As well provisioning and maintaining your server configuration and running
commands, you can also use [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com) to deploy your PHP
application - leveraging relevant Ansible modules such as Git and Composer,
custom Ansible roles,
[Ansible Vault](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/vault.html)
for managing secrets, and features such as idempotency out of the box to build a
simple deployment playbook.
We can then extend that and make it more robust by adding
[Ansistrano](https://ansistrano.com) - a port of
[Capistrano](https://capistranorb.com) - which adds extra features such as
storing multiple builds for each project and the ability to roll-back if needed,
customising your build steps using built-in hooks, multi-stage environments and
more.
I've been using Ansible and Ansistrano to deploy a variety of PHP projects -
including Drupal 7 & 8, Symfony, Laravel and Sculpin, as well as basic HTML
websites, and found it to be very flexible and easy to install and use, and by
the end of this talk we will have a fully working deployment playbook, deploying
real code onto a real server.
