Automatically update cpanel after push in Github Repository with .cpanel.yml

Question

8I am trying to update my cpanel through Github repositories.

Let me explain what I tried :

Step 1: At First, I created a Private Repository in Github
Step 2: Cloned the repositories in my local computer
Step 3: added all the files pushed in GitHub Repository ( Successfully uploaded with the commit message"
Step 4 : created a .cpanel.yml inside project folder.
.cpanel.yml code below

---
deployment:
  tasks:
    - export DEPLOYPATH=/home/cpanelUserName/public_html
    - /bin/cp * $DEPLOYPATH
    - /bin/cp/ -r * $DEPLOYPATH
    - /bin/chmod 755 ${DEPLOYPATH}
    - /bin/find ${DEPLOYPATH} -type d -exec /bin/chmod 755 '{}' \;
    - /bin/find ${DEPLOYPATH} -type f -exec /bin/chmod 644 '{}' \;

Step 5: Pushed in Github repository ( Successfully added)

Now i logged in inside my cpanel. Clicked on Git Version Control.

Created a Repository

Repository image below :

Step 6: I created a private key through ssh from the Cpanel ssh panel. And added in Github Repository Deploy key.

Step 7 : I just added the cpanel repository ssh url with my github repository using this command

git remote add server ssh://[email protected]:21098/home/myUserName/repositories/myportfolio 

Step 8: I changed the web.php file & added it to the GitHub repository. (Successfully) Step 9: I tried to upload the changes to Cpanel through this command

git push server

#Note: asked for Cpanel password. When the password is valid it's uploading the changes inside repositories/myportfolio directory.

Repositories/myportfolio directory inside /home/myUsername directory. I mean outside of the public_html directory.

I can able to change the repository folder. But, .cpanel.yml file not working properly.

What to do now?

Answer 1

.cpanel.yml runs when server clones a repository and try to deploy after fetching new update.

You are pushing your repository from your computer.

You should use post-receive hook instead.
