# dsd-vps

A plugin for deploying Django projects to any VPS provider, using django-simple-deploy.

Quick Start
---

To deploy your project to a VPS, you'll need to ...

## Prerequisites

Deployment to a VPS requires the following:

- You must be using Git to track your project.
- You need to be tracking your dependencies with a `requirements.txt` file, or be using Poetry or Pipenv.
- You'll need...

## Configuration-only deployment (NOT SUPPORTED YET)

First, install `dsd-vps` and add `django_simple_deploy` to `INSTALLED_APPS` in *settings.py*:

```sh
$ pip install dsd-vps
# Add "django_simple_deploy" to INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py.
$ git commit -am "Added django_simple_deploy to INSTALLED_APPS."
```

When you install `dsd-vps`, it will install `django-simple-deploy` as a dependency.

Now run the `deploy` command:

```sh
$ python manage.py deploy
```

This is the `deploy` command from `django-simple-deploy`, which makes all the changes you need to run your project on a VPS.

## Automated deployment

This is experimental, and you should review the codebase before running this early version on your system. It will modify local files outside of your project, such as `~/.ssh/config` and `~/.ssh/id_rsa_git`.

- Create a new VPS instance.
    - I'm Using Ubuntu 24.04 on Digital Ocean for development work; any debian-based OS on any VPS provider should work.
    - Choose SSH username/password login approach, *not* SSH key (for now).
- Set two local env vars:
    - `$ export DSD_HOST_IPADDR=<instance-ip-address>`
    - `$ export DSD_HOST_PW=<instance-pw>`
- Install `dsd-vps`. (If you cloned this repo, you probably want to make a local editable install of `dsd-vps`.)
- Add `django_simple_deploy` to `INSTALLED_APPS`.
- Run `python manage.py deploy --automate-all`.
    - This command takes a while. If you think it might be hanging, look at your VPS instance dashboard. High CPU means it's probably still updating.
    - For development work, it might be reasonable to use a higher spec instance, that will be destroyed in under an hour.
    - The deployment will ask you to confirm a fingerprint before connecting. It will also require the root password for the instance.

The `deploy` command will add a new user named `django_user` to the instance, with the same password you originally chose. It will update and configure the server, configure Git on the server, configure the project to be served from the droplet, commit changes, push the project, and open the remote project in a new browser tab.

It will add a local ssh key pair for Git, modifying `~/.ssh/config`. The key will be stored at `~/.ssh/id_rsa_git`.

The project will be served over http, which means the browser will almost certainly flag it as insecure.

## Automated deployment - using SSH keys

This is experimental, and you should review the codebase before running this early version on your system. It will modify local files outside of your project, such as `~/.ssh/config` and `~/.ssh/id_rsa_git`.

The current version of dsd-vps only supports ssh-key-based deployment to Digital Ocean, because it only knows how to create resources on that platform. Support for other platforms will be added as the behavior stabilizes.

- Install `dsd-vps`. (If you cloned this repo, you probably want to make a local editable install of `dsd-vps`.)
- Add `django_simple_deploy` to `INSTALLED_APPS`.
- Run `python manage.py deploy --platform digital_ocean --automate-all --ssh-key <path_to_ssh_key>`.
    - This command takes a while. If you think it might be hanging, look at your VPS instance dashboard. High CPU means it's probably still updating.
    - For development work, it might be reasonable to use a higher spec instance, that will be destroyed in under an hour.
    - The deployment will ask you to confirm a fingerprint before connecting.

The `deploy` command will add a new user named `django_user` to the instance. It will update and configure the server, configure Git on the server, configure the project to be served from the droplet, commit changes, push the project, and open the remote project in a new browser tab.
