Is it possible to automatically update NodeBB installation from a github repo?

    @superjd10_ and I where discussing the idea of setting up an automatic workflow were we could update a github repo and it will automatically get pulled and loaded in our NodeBB installation. I was wondering if anyone here has setup such system, and if so, can you explain how you did it? Here are some questions to get started:

    • should we handle core and theme separately?
    • what about plugins?
    • is this safe to do?

    Again the idea is to push a change to a repository on github and have the installation automatically update itself to reflect that. I think we also need to reload NodeBB after each change. I think this would definitely be useful for development, but is it recommended for production?

    @ arasbm:

    There's some work being done to dockerize the install. If that doesn't do the trick for you, I expect some of the same automation will.

    @mat-m is spot on, though my perspective is definitely production, not test. Running the leanest container possible has the added benefit of reducing the attack vectors as there is simply less surface for somebody to target. Alpine is specifically designed to be as lightweight as possible and as stripped down as possible.

    Do we know who owns the image build process and can s/he weigh in on this?

    @baris well finally managed to get it working, I was missing to accept merging the branch when doing the pull.... but that was not enough as now it was showing me a problem with the widget essentials... so I checkout the commit for "up widget essentials" and that fixed it for me!!

    Thank you for your time @baris 😀 👍
