Travis CI can automatically deploy your modules to Puppet Forge or to your own Forge instance after a successful build.
For a minimal configuration, add the following to your .travis.yml
:
deploy:
provider: puppetforge
username: <username>
password: <encrypted password>
edge: true # opt in to dpl v2
Status #
Support for deployments to Puppet Forge is in alpha. Please see Maturity Levels for details.

Securing secrets #
Secret option values should be given as either encrypted strings in your build
configuration (.travis.yml
