Deploy commands

scap deploy

The deploy command handles deployment of various wikimedia projects from the deployment server to a staging or production environment.

  • Tags the current revision in the current git directory

  • Runs git update-server-info for the current git directory (as well as for any submodules)

  • SSHs into each server in the dsh_targets file

  • Runs git fetch in the /srv/deployment/{repo} directory of each target (running checkout if it does not exist)

  • Checks out the tag created in step 1 on each of the target machines

  • If a service_name is specified, the service is restarted. Multiple services may be specified by separating them with commas, e.g., service1, service2. A service can be reloaded by appending =reload to the service’s name, e.g., service1, service2 = reload.

  • If a service_port is specified, make sure that it is accepting connections, waiting up to service_timeout (120 seconds by default)

scap deploy-log

The scap deploy-log command provides powerful filters for the scap deploy logs.

The main deploy application sends all structured log output to a file under scap/log/git-tag.log. deploy-log is meant to run during or after a deploy, potentially in a separate terminal. Log entries can be filtered on one or more fields using a given free-form expression. By default scap deploy-log will periodically scan the scap/log directory for new files and immediately begin tailing any newly discovered log file.

As an alternative to the default behavior, you can either specify the log file to parse via the scap deploy-log --file option or choose the newest log file by using scap deploy-log --latest; in this case, it will simply filter the entire file for matching records and exit, rather than watching for more log files to be created.

The default behavior is convenient for monitoring an ongoing deployment from a separate terminal. Simply start scap deploy-log in a separate terminal prior to running scap deploy. Once your deployment starts, scap deploy-log will discover the new log file and immediately begin displaying relevant log messages

Usage

scap deploy-log [--file <file>] [--latest] [-v] [expr]

scap deploy-log [--file <file>] [--latest] [-v] [expr]

-f <file>, --file <file>

Used to explicitly specify the log file to be parsed. If no file is specified then deploy-log will automatically open any newly created log files and immediately begin outputting any matching log messages.

-l, --latest

Parse and filter the latest log file, exiting once the entire file has been processed.

-v, --verbose

Produce verbose output

expr

Optional filter expression which is used to match log entries in <file>

Examples

# show verbose output:
scap deploy-log -v
# tail the most recent log file:
scap deploy-log --latest
# show log messages for the host named scap-target-01
scap deploy-log 'host == scap-target-01'
# show log messages matching a regex pattern:
scap deploy-log 'msg ~ "some important (message|msg)"'
# show WARNING messages for hosts whose name begins with "scap-target-"
scap deploy-log 'levelno >= WARNING host == scap-target-*'
