Portfolio

Deployment

Deployment uses GitHub Actions to build and push Docker images to Docker Hub.

The Docker images to build are located in:

docker/frontend/prod/Dockerfile
docker/nginx/prod/Dockerfile

The Nginx configuration is in:

docker/nginx/prod/nginx.conf

Deployment is set up to be served on a VPS, which supports IPv4, IPv6, or both.

After the build completes and images are pushed to Docker Hub, the deployment step is triggered:

cd ~/apps/portfolio
git pull
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d

The application should be cloned beforehand into the /apps/portfolio directory.

• DOCKERHUB_USERNAME: Docker Hub account username
• DOCKERHUB_PASSWORD: Docker Hub account password
• SSH_HOST: The VPS host address
• SSH_PORT: The port for SSH access to the VPS
