When will you release a deployment tool in Haxe?


For Less and Sass, it's not very annoying because you don't have to write a lot of ruby code. But writting a complete deployment script if you don't know ruby is very hard... I love to be able to use my favorite JS modules in my deploy script, that's why I wrote Shipit.


That is one solid point. Thanks for helping all of us out!


Shipit can be an Ansible replacement, but there is no command abstraction to Shipit. Shipit is designed to quickly deploy a project on a set of servers not to configure an entire server.


I don't know Brad's Shipit, so it's not a port but it is possible that it's the same thing.


They used in to deploy projects internally, same for Le Monde. Shipit is not designed to Shipit projects over a lot of servers. It's designed to Shipit small projects or even to ship code on hardware (like raspberry).


Shipit is an automation and deployment tool, git hook is just a hook on a git command. You can't run a command on 10 servers in parallel using git hook post-receive.


technically, a hook shell script could start 10 background commands, or start 10 commands using GNU Parallel.

This obsession with using a single language for everything is ridiculous and needs to end.


If you need more documentation about deploying using Shipit, you can find it in the deploy set of tasks: https://github.com/shipitjs/shipit-deploy


Yes, it looks like, I didn't know this project.


But ShipIt seems to be more modular and event driven while flightplan is just a rundown of various commands...
