Blacknight Github Deployments

off.the.walls

Hey Everyone,

Just a quick one, I have a normal Blacknight server, just for hosting wordpress websites and such, my question is is it possible to grab files from my github repo in order to deploy them onto this server?

Thanks in advance!

Question for Blacknight really, but have you full access to the server or is it shared hosting?

Shared hosting.

This might work https://getgrav.org/blog/git-sync-plugin but it means using this new CMS, although it looks nice.
Really if you had access to run a command line git client on the shared hosting you could script a poll every x hours to automatically refresh the site content.

I suspect you won't be able to do what you're trying to do directly, as we don't give SSH access on our shared platform. You'd need to be able to get your client to upload the files via FTP.

You could write a script that pulls from your git repo and makes the relevant FTP calls if this is the case - from your machine
