Deploy to digitalocean on push to github

Have a look at @fylzero answer here https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/envoyer/generating-deployer-script

Not sure if that will help or not......

This gist might give you some ideas https://gist.github.com/oodavid/1809044

@lemmon What do you mean "alternatives to Forge for Windows". Forge is an outboard server management panel that runs as a web application. If you're running Windows as your development machine, you can still deploy code to your servers using Forge, no problem.

@fylzero I just meant something other that Forge, and that also would work on windows. I was checking out envoy then I realized that it was linux/mac only program.

@lemmon Ok, so your actual question is "are there alternatives to Envoy for Windows?"... because Forge is kind of a different thing.

ServerPilot would be an alternative to Forge, but doesn't do much in the way of deployment.

If you just want deployment for free, you could always just put together a bash script that deploys your code (does Windows do bash? lol idk).

That said, I'd highly recommend just biting the bullet and paying for Forge. Makes life much easier and you can justify the cost as it gives you free SSH certs for all your sites.

OR! Install VirtualBox, run Linux and use Envoy with a shared directory just for deployments. ...or better yet, just over-write Windows with Linux! =) TBH, I'm actually not totally kidding. Once you start needing to manage servers, dev'ing on Windows gets cumbersome imo.

@fylzero Forge is looking good, Thank you

@snapey Thank your for your help. so correct me if I am wrong, using github actions as described in https://laravel-news.com/push-deploy-with-github-actions since this script uses the appleboy/ssh-action. it says "Important: Only support Linux docker container." what is that?
