GIT Deployment
Subcommands new as of 0.12.0
git:report [<app>] [<flag>] # Displays a git report for one or more apps
git:set <app> <key> (<value>) # Set or clear a git property for an app
GIT-based deployment has been the traditional method of deploying applications in Dokku. As of v0.12.0, Dokku introduces a few ways to customize the experience of deploying via git push.
Usage
Changing the Deploy Branch
By default, Dokku will deploy code pushed to the master branch. In order to quickly deploy a different local branch, the following GIT command can be used:
# on the local machine
# where `SOME_BRANCH_NAME` is the name of the branch
git push dokku SOME_BRANCH_NAME:master
In 0.12.0, the correct way to change the deploy branch is to use the git:set Dokku subcommand.
# on the Dokku host
# override for all applications
dokku git:set --global deploy-branch SOME_BRANCH_NAME
# override for a specific app
# where `SOME_BRANCH_NAME` is the name of the branch
dokku git:set node-js-app deploy-branch SOME_BRANCH_NAME
Pushing multiple branches can also be supportec by creating a receive-branch plugin trigger in a custom plugin.
Configuring the GIT_REV Environment Variable
New as of 0.12.0
Application deployments will include a special GIT_REV environment variable containing the current deployment sha being deployed. For rebuilds, this sha will remain the same.
To configure the name of the GIT_REV environment variable, run the git:set subcommand as follows:
# on the Dokku host
# override for a specific app
dokku git:set node-js-app rev-env-var DOKKU_GIT_REV
This behavior can be disabled entirely on a per-app basis by setting the rev-env-var value to an empty string:
# on the Dokku host
# override for a specific app
dokku git:set node-js-app rev-env-var ""
