# Deploy Scripts

Scripts in `api/deploy/` upload repository source files to remote web servers via SFTP.

---

## deploy-sftp.php

**Path:** `api/deploy/deploy-sftp.php`
**Base class:** `MokoEnterprise\CliFramework`

Reads connection details from a `sftp-config.json` file and recursively uploads
a repository's `src/` directory to the configured remote path.
Supports PuTTY `.ppk` keys and OpenSSH PEM keys via phpseclib. Strips `//`
line comments from the config file so the Sublime Text SFTP plugin format works
without modification.

### Usage

```bash
php api/deploy/deploy-sftp.php [OPTIONS]
```

| Option | Default | Description |
|--------|---------|-------------|
| `--path <dir>` | `.` | Repository root to deploy |
| `--src-dir <dir>` | `src` | Sub-directory inside the repo to upload |
| `--env <dev\|demo>` | — | Target environment; selects named config file (see below) |
| `--config <file>` | — | Explicit config path — overrides `--env` and auto-lookup |
| `--key-passphrase <pw>` | _(none)_ | Passphrase for encrypted SSH key |
| `--dry-run` | off | Preview uploads without connecting |
| `--verbose` / `-v` | off | Show per-file transfer details |
| `--quiet` / `-q` | off | Suppress all output except errors |
| `--help` / `-h` | — | Show help and exit |

### Config File Resolution

`--env` controls which config file is loaded from `{path}/scripts/sftp-config/`:

| `--env` | Config file |
|---------|-------------|
| `dev` | `scripts/sftp-config/sftp-config.dev.json` |
| `demo` | `scripts/sftp-config/sftp-config.demo.json` |
| _(none)_ | `scripts/sftp-config/sftp-config.json` (generic fallback) |

> **Note:** The `rs` environment has been retired. RS deployment is via the release pipeline only.

`--config <file>` always takes precedence over `--env`.

### Directory Layout

Both directories are **gitignored** — create them locally and never commit their contents:

```
{repo_root}/
  scripts/
    sftp-config/            ← gitignored; copy templates from templates/scripts/deploy/
      sftp-config.dev.json  ← copy of sftp-config.dev.json.example, filled in
      sftp-config.demo.json ← copy of sftp-config.demo.json.example, filled in
    keys/                   ← gitignored; place your .ppk / PEM key file here
```

> **IMPORTANT:** `sftp-config.json` files are for local development only. In CI/CD, all credentials must come from GitHub variables and secrets. Never commit sftp-config files.

See `templates/scripts/sftp-config/README.md` for step-by-step setup instructions.

### Key Resolution

`ssh_key_file` in `sftp-config.json` may be an absolute path or a bare filename.
When not absolute, the script looks for the key under `{path}/scripts/keys/` first,
then falls back to the value as a path relative to CWD.

### Examples

```bash
# Preview what would be uploaded (no connection)
php api/deploy/deploy-sftp.php --env dev --dry-run --verbose

# Deploy src/ to dev server
php api/deploy/deploy-sftp.php --path /repos/mymodule --env dev

# Deploy src/ to demo server
php api/deploy/deploy-sftp.php --path /repos/mymodule --env demo

# Use a different source directory
php api/deploy/deploy-sftp.php --path /repos/mymodule --env dev --src-dir htdocs

# Deploy with explicit config and encrypted key
php api/deploy/deploy-sftp.php \
  --path /repos/mymodule \
  --config /repos/mymodule/scripts/sftp-config/sftp-config.demo.json \
  --key-passphrase "my passphrase"
```

### Config Format

Copy a template from `templates/scripts/deploy/` to `scripts/sftp-config/` and fill in your values:

```json
{
  "type": "sftp",
  "host": "iad1-shared-b7-01.dreamhost.com",
  "user": "mokoconsulting_dev",
  "ssh_key_file": "jmiller_private.ppk",
  "port": "22",
  "remote_path": "/home/mokoconsulting_dev/crm.dev.mokoconsulting.tech/htdocs/custom/mymodule/",
  "ignore_regexes": [
    "\\.git*",
    "sftp-config(-alt\\d?)?\\.json",
    "\\.DS_Store",
    "Thumbs\\.db"
  ]
}
```

`ssh_key_file` may be a bare filename (resolved from `scripts/keys/`) or an
absolute path (e.g. `J:/My Drive/Keys/jmiller_private.ppk`).

### Exit Codes

| Code | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| `0` | All files uploaded successfully |
| `1` | Connection failed or one or more files could not be uploaded |
| `2` | Invalid arguments or config file error |

### Called by Workflows

| Workflow | Trigger | Target | Secrets prefix |
|----------|---------|--------|----------------|
| `deploy-dev.yml` | `workflow_call`, `workflow_dispatch` | Dev server | `DEV_FTP_` |
| `deploy-demo.yml` | `workflow_call`, `workflow_dispatch` | Demo server | `DEMO_FTP_` |

> **Note:** The former `deploy-rs.yml` workflow (RS server, `RS_FTP_` prefix) has been retired. RS deployment is now handled via the release pipeline (`auto-release.yml`).

See [Deploy Workflows](../../workflows/dev-deployment.md) for workflow usage.

### GitHub Secrets and Variables Reference

When called from CI, the script reads credentials from environment variables set by the workflow. See the [SFTP Deployment Guide](../../deployment/sftp.md#github-secrets-and-variables) for the full secrets/variables tables for `DEV_FTP_*` and `DEMO_FTP_*` environments, including types (Secret vs. Variable) and scopes (Org vs. Repo).
