Write a deployment workflow, which runs all required checks and your deploy script. In this example, I run the test suite before each deployment. The deployment is done by Laravel Forge. We just curl the deployment URL. github.com/stefanzweifel/gh-actions-env-test/blob/main/.github/workflows/deploy.ymlPermalink On twitter.com

💡 The workflow is triggered byPermalink On twitter.com
repository_dispatchorworkflow_dispatchevents, so I can trigger the deployment from outside GitHub (Slack Command, Alfred Workflow, …). (You might update this to listen to thereleaseevent to only deploy when new releases are made.) -
In the repository environment settings, I add people as reviewers for production, so only after manual review stuff goes live.Permalink On twitter.com
-
After manually triggering the deployment, I can now approve or reject the deployment request. Staging already went live, as there was no review process definedOn twitter.com
-
After successful deployment, I can see the URL to where my app has been deployed. In the repo under "Environments" there's also a neat deployment log.Permalink On twitter.com
