Fixed incremental deployments and added post-deployment optimization commands

Added

  • Post-deployment optimization commands matching GitHub Actions workflow:
    • Application optimization (optimize:clear and optimize)
    • Event caching (event:clear and event:cache)
    • Queue worker restart (queue:restart)
    • Horizon termination (horizon:terminate)
    • Application cache clearing (cache:clear)
    • OPcache clearing (opcache:clear)
  • Configurable caching commands (config, route, view) via config file flags

Fixed

  • Fixed .env file being overwritten during incremental deployments
  • Fixed app key regeneration breaking user sessions on subsequent deployments
  • Fixed storage symlink creation errors when symlink already exists
  • Fixed public_html symlink creation errors when symlink already exists

Improved

  • Post-deployment commands now run conditionally based on existing state
  • .env file is only created from .env.example if it doesn't already exist
  • App key generation only runs if APP_KEY is not set in .env
  • Storage symlink creation only runs if symlink doesn't exist
  • Safe for incremental deployments - preserves user data and configuration files
  • Removed redundant .env file existence checks (file is guaranteed to exist at post-deployment stage)
  • hostinger:deploy command now matches GitHub Actions workflow post-deployment behavior

Changed

  • Deployment commands are now idempotent - safe to run multiple times without side effects
  • First-time deployment behavior unchanged, but subsequent deployments preserve existing configuration

v0.4.0

11 Nov 22:15

Choose a tag to compare

Added

  • Full Laravel environment setup in build-assets job to support Laravel Vite plugins
  • PHP, Composer, and .env configuration in the build-assets job
  • Artifact upload/download mechanism to share built assets between GitHub Actions jobs
  • build-assets job now properly generates vendor/autoload.php before building frontend assets

Fixed

  • Fixed build failure when Laravel Vite plugins require PHP artisan commands during asset compilation
  • Fixed missing Composer dependencies causing "vendor/autoload.php not found" error during npm build
  • Fixed artifact sharing issue where built assets from build-assets job were not available in deploy job

Improved

  • GitHub Actions workflow now properly isolates and shares build artifacts between jobs
  • Better dependency management between jobs (deploy now depends on both tests and build-assets)

v0.3.0

31 Oct 17:02

Choose a tag to compare

Added

  • Enhanced error handling with detailed error messages showing exit codes and command output
  • --show-errors flag for hostinger:deploy command to display verbose error information
  • Automatic Git host key verification: Automatically adds Git repository host (GitHub, GitLab, etc.) to known_hosts to prevent interactive prompts during first-time cloning
  • Support for all Git hosting providers: Extracts hostname from repository URL automatically (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, etc.)

Improved

  • Error messages now include exit codes, error output (stderr), and regular output (stdout) from failed SSH commands
  • Deployment failures now provide actionable debugging information instead of generic error messages
  • Fixed first-time repository cloning issue where SSH would prompt for host key verification
  • Better error visibility: Errors with detailed information are automatically shown even without the --show-errors flag

Documentation

  • Added requirement documentation for PHP exec() function in README
  • Added SSH public key authentication setup recommendations and instructions
  • Moved environment variables section to the top of README for better visibility
  • Enhanced README with clearer setup instructions and security best practices

Fixed

  • Fixed deployment failure on first-time git clone due to host key verification prompt
  • Improved error reporting when deployment commands fail with non-zero exit codes

v0.2.0

31 Oct 13:55

Choose a tag to compare

Added

  • Automatic npm build support: hostinger:deploy now automatically detects package.json and builds frontend assets locally before deployment
  • Built asset copying: Automatically copies public/build/ directory to the remote server using rsync after deployment
  • GitHub Actions workflow enhancements:
    • SSH key installation step for secure authentication
    • Automatic copying of built frontend assets to the remote server
    • Support for projects with npm/frontend build requirements

Changed

  • Refactored all commands to extend BaseHostingerCommand base class for better code organization and DRY principles
  • Renamed hostinger:deploy-shared to hostinger:deploy (simpler, more intuitive name)
  • Renamed hostinger:setup-automated-deploy to hostinger:setup-cicd (more accurate terminology)
  • Renamed hostinger:deploy-and-setup-automated to hostinger:deploy-and-setup-cicd (consistent naming)

Improved

  • Reduced code duplication by extracting common methods into BaseHostingerCommand
  • Improved maintainability - changes to shared logic now only need to be made once
  • Better code organization with centralized configuration validation, SSH setup, and GitHub API initialization
  • Frontend assets are now built locally (no npm required on shared hosting servers)
