laravel forge: hello world to hello production

Laravel Forge:From Hello World to Hello Production

Step One: Hello WorldStep Two: CI, CD, OMG

Step Three: ????Step Four: Hello

Production

Step One: Hello World

Create our projectVia Laravel Installer: laravel new hello-world

Via Composer: composer create-project laravel/laravel hello-world --prefer-dist

Where should our project live?

I prefer to keep things in ~/PhpstormProjects

MAMP, LAMP, WAMP, WAT?

Mac/Linux/Windows Apache MySQL PHP

These are all great tools

Is your server running MAMP?

Why not develop ON the server?

Do not develop ON the server

Develop in the same environment

Servers are expensive

Virtual Machines are cheap

Our Use Case:Duplicate our server environment

in a local virtual machine

Installing an OS takes time

Vagrant!

Vagrant allows you to:• Create a server• Configure a server• Delete a server

…over and over and over..

Which Vagrant?

Homestead“Laravel Homestead is an official, pre-packaged Vagrant "box" that provides you a wonderful development environment without requiring you to install PHP, HHVM, a web server, and any other server software on your local machine.”

But I need…

What’s in the box:• Ubuntu 14.04• PHP 5.6• HHVM• Nginx• MySQL• Postgres• Redis

• NodeJS• Bower• Grunt• Gulp• Beanstalkd• Memcached• Laravel Envoy

Fabric + HipChat Extension + more!

Getting Homestead

Install the box:vagrant box add laravel/homestead

Clone the Repository:git clone https://github.com/laravel/homestead.git Homestead

Configure HomesteadDefault: Hello World:

Update /etc/hosts*192.168.10.10 hello-world.app

*This step is optional

Ready to vagrant up

Our code will be shared from our host machine

And mapped to the vagrant machine

~/PhpstormProjects/hello-world

/home/vagrant/hello-world

$ vagrant up

What now?

How to access our hello-world.app

These are ports forwarded to homestead

Connect to the Database

Connect via a browser

Or use the hostname*

*If you added the host to your /etc/hosts

Connect via SSHYou could do this:

But this is easier:

Homestead is awesome!We now have a local dev environment we can easily use, break, and restore

without having to reinstall the entire operating system and developer tools.

Break something?

Staking your own Homestead

I like to customize homestead AND

make sure I can easily update from upstream

Fork Homestead

Update your Homestead

Add another provisioner

What could customize.sh do?

You may not need customize.sh

It is important to have a way to easily reproduce your development environment

so that those one off changes you make are documented and two months down the

road you don’t destroy & up your environment to find out you have stuff missing

Step ??? Go make something great

Tests!

You've written tests all along for your app right?

PHPUnit isn’t the only option!

• Behat• phpspec• Codeception

Codeception• Selenium WebDriver integration• Elements matched by name, CSS, XPath• Symfony2, Laravel4, Yii, Phalcon, Zend Framework• PageObjects and StepObjects included• BDD-style readable tests• Powered by PHPUnit• API testing: REST,SOAP,XML-RPC• Facebook API testing• Data Cleanup• HTML, XML, TAP, JSON reports• CodeCoverage and Remote CodeCoverage• Parallel Execution

Basic Acceptance Test

Automate our Testing

TeamCity

Build Steps

All OK? Deploy!

Step Four: Hello Production

Traditional Deployment

Better Deployment

But you still have to…

• Update Dependencies• Run migrations• Update Assets

Continuous Delivery

Production can be updated anytime

Continuous Delivery VS

Continuous Deployment

Continuous Deployment“Deploy my code every time tests pass”

Continuous Delivery“We can deploy whenever we want…but we control when”

Laravel Forge

“A simple way to deploy your laravel applications onto blazing fast servers”

Forge is Homestead and more in the cloud

Forge is not a server host

Forge uses your servers

Forge uses any* server

*Any Internet accesible Ubuntu 14.04 x64 Server

Adding Servers To Forge

Adding a site to a server

Adding a ssh key to a server

Adding scheduled (cron) jobs

Adding daemons (supervisor)

Creating server networks

Server Monitoring

Update Server Meta Data

Adding our hello-world site

Forge can do more…

Add a WordPress Site

Ready to install

Removing WordPress

Does NOT remove your WordPress Database!

Install Craft CMS

Craft CMS

Uninstall Craft CMS

Does NOT remove your Craft CMS Database!

Install our Git Repository

Configure App Deployment

Deploy!

Deploy!

Continuous Delivery!

Deployment Log

Setting Environment Variables

Queue Workers

Configure / Install SSL

Enable Quick Deploy

Quick Deploy Branch

Quick Deploy Branch

Continuous Deployment!

Recipes

Recipes a bash scripts that can be run on any of your Forge servers.

Cooking up Recipes

Think of recipes like our customize.sh in Homestead

All the things!

Not All The Things

Some things we were doing in customize.sh we can do via Forge:

• Queue Workers• Cron Jobs

Create Recipe

Run Install Bower Recipe

Forge Emails You Recipe Report

HipChat Notifications

Slack Notifications

You can use cURL to post to Slack channelscurl -X POST --data-urlencode ‘payload=

{"channel": “#devops", "username": "Forge", "text": “'"$Message"'",

"icon_emoji": ":shipit:"}' https://<You>.slack.com/services/

hooks/incoming-webhook?token=<Your-Slack-Token>

Edit our Deployment Script

Now every deployment will run bower and notify our slack channel that our repo was deployed.

Hey Joe…

Been there, done that

Enable Slack

Add the Integration

Authenticate with Slack

Deploy!

Restarting Services

Edit PHP Configuration

Delete the server

Deleting a site

Forge VS Forge Plus

• Manage 5 Servers • Unlimited Servers• Forge Circles

Recap

Local Development: Use Homestead

Remote Deployment: Use Forge

Automate build tests and configure Continuous Deployment

Practice Continuous Delivery if not Continuous Deployment
