Installation

Return To Top

Install package

composer require grrr/nova-netlify-deploy

For older Nova use grrr/nova-netlify-deploy:^1.0.

Load the tool by adding it to NovaServiceProvider.php

use Grrr\NetlifyDeploy\NetlifyDeployTool;

...

    /**
     * Get the tools that should be listed in the Nova sidebar.
     *
     * @return array<Tool>
     */
    public function tools()
    {
        return [new NetlifyDeployTool()];
    }

...

Publish configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Grrr\NetlifyDeploy\NetlifyDeployServiceProvider"

Add your Netlify credentials to the config file. You can use environment variables for this:

• NETLIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN
  Used to connect with the Netlify API.
  Create a new token here: https://app.netlify.com/user/applications/personal
• NETLIFY_SITE_ID
  This is the site you wish to deploy from the CMS.
  You can find this under Site Settings, listed under Site information as API ID.

Card

If you want, you can use the card provided by this package to show the deploy status on your Nova dashboard.
Include the card in the cards array of your NovaServiceProvider:

use Grrr\NetlifyDeploy\NetlifyDeployCard;

protected function cards()
{
    return [new NetlifyDeployCard()];
}

Events

This package broadcasts a PublicationWasStarted event right before the Netlify API has been instructed to create a new deploy. You can listen to this in your application if you have a need.
