Run Commands Before or After Deploy

Travis CI can automatically deploy your modules to Puppet Forge or to your own Forge instance after a successful build.

To deploy to Puppet Forge, add your Puppet Forge username and your encrypted Puppet Forge password to your .travis.yml:

deploy:
  provider: puppetforge
  user: "<Your username>"
  password:
    secure: "YOUR ENCRYPTED PASSWORD"

Deploy to a Custom Forge #

To deploy to your own hosted Forge instance by adding it in the url key:

You can explicitly set the name via the app option:

deploy:
  provider: puppetforge
  user: "<Your username>"
  password:
    secure: "YOUR ENCRYPTED PASSWORD"
  url: https://forgeapi.example.com/

Run Commands Before or After Deploy #

Sometimes, you want to run commands before or after deploying. You can use the before_deploy and after_deploy stages for this. These will only be triggered if Travis CI is actually deploying.

before_deploy: "echo 'ready?'"
deploy:
  ..
after_deploy:
  - ./after_deploy_1.sh
  - ./after_deploy_2.sh
