Welcome to the DevOps documentation repository! This folder contains a series of guides, workflows, and configurations for managing, automating, and deploying various infrastructure components efficiently. Each sub-folder is dedicated to a specific DevOps area, such as automation, deployment, backup scheduling, and other CloudPanel configurations.
Here’s an overview of the main folders and their purposes:
-
cloud-panel/
Contains configurations and scripts specifically for CloudPanel, a user-friendly hosting control panel that enables easy management of web servers and applications. This folder provides guidance for configuring backups, bypassing GUI limitations, and more. -
automation/
Houses scripts and tools that automate repetitive tasks, such as backup scheduling, server monitoring, and maintenance. This folder will cover topics such as Cron jobs, scripts for cleanup tasks, and resource monitoring. -
deployment/
Contains workflows and deployment scripts that can be used with CI/CD pipelines. You’ll find resources for automating the deployment of applications, handling version control, and setting up continuous integration and delivery. -
workflows/
Guides and YAML files for common workflows, such as automated testing, continuous deployment, and code quality checks, often used in GitHub Actions or other CI/CD systems.
To get the most out of this repository, start by exploring the specific folders relevant to your tasks. Here’s a quick start for each section:
In the cloud-panel folder, you’ll find:
-
Altering Default Backup Schedule
Instructions for customizing database and app backup schedules beyond the default settings in CloudPanel’s configuration files, using cron jobs. -
Setting Custom Remote Backup Frequency
Guides for bypassing CloudPanel’s GUI limitations on remote backup frequencies. You’ll learn how to set up more frequent backups by adjusting cron job schedules.
This folder covers scripts and configurations for automating server maintenance tasks. Topics include:
- Creating recurring backups and clean-up scripts using cron jobs.
- Monitoring server health and automating alerts.
- Regular maintenance routines to keep the infrastructure secure and performant.
Deployment scripts and guides focus on setting up and managing CI/CD pipelines. You’ll find:
- Example configurations for automating deployments.
- Tips for integrating deployment tools with popular CI/CD systems like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins.
- Rollback and versioning best practices to maintain stability.
The workflows folder will contain ready-to-use templates for common DevOps workflows, including:
- Automated testing before deployment.
- Scheduled tasks to check code quality.
- Configurations for deployment to staging and production environments.
