Capistrano configuration for deploy with gitlab

Capistano

Capistrano is written in Ruby, but it can easily be used to deploy any language.

If your language or framework has special deployment requirements, Capistrano can easily be extended to support them.

sudo groupadd deployers
sudo adduser deploy
sudo usermod -a -G deployers deploy

to give the deployers group the permissions, run the following and edit the /etc/sudoers file: visudo
Add the following line to after the groups:

..
## Allows people in group wheel to run all commands
deploy      ALL=(ALL)NOPASSWD:/bin/chown, /bin/chmod,/bin/mkdir

..

sudo su - deploy
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "deploy@example.com"

add new deploy key to gitlab on http://gitlabserver/admin/deploy_keys from new server cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
enable new deploy-key on gitlab project
copy gitlab-runner key from gitlab-machine su gitlab-runner -c "cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"
paste gitlab ssh-key to new server via deploy user vi ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
change file mode chmod 644 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
install git on new server yum -y install git
change project installation folder group chgrp -hR deployers /var/www
change project installation folder permission chmod 775 -R /var/www

first create capistrano config file with cap install command on project root folder.
