Open Source PHP Deployment Tools

m23 is a free software distribution system (license: GPL), that installs (via network, starting with partitioning and formatting) and administrates (updates, adds / removes software, adds / removes scripts) clients with Debian, (X/K)Ubuntu and LinuxMint. It is used for deployment of Linux clients in schools, institutions and enterprises. The m23 server is controlled via a web interface. A new m23 client can be installed easily in only three steps. Group functions and mass installation tools make managing a vast number of clients comfortable. The integration of existing clients (with .deb-based distributions) into the system is possible, too. Client backup and server backup are included to avoid data loss. With the integrated virtualisation software, m23 can create and manage virtual m23 clients, that run on real m23 clients or the m23 server. Scripts and software packages (for installation on clients) can be created directly from the m23 web interface.

A deployment tool written in PHP with support for popular frameworks out of the box. Deployer is a cli tool for deployment of any PHP applications, including frameworks such as Laravel, Symfony, Zend Framework and many more. Main concept of Deployer is recipe, a php file containing tasks definitions. Recipe can require other recipes and extend/ override functionality. Also Deployer comes with bunch of ready to use recipes from community for Slack, etc. Deployer can be easily installed via composer or as phar archive. By default deployer keeps the last 5 releases, but you can increase this number by modifying the associated parameter. You may want to run some task before/after other tasks. Configuring that is really simple! Defining a host in Deployer is necessary to deploy your application. It can be a remote machine, a local machine or Amazon EC2 instances. Each host contains a hostname, a stage, one or more roles and configuration parameters.

PHPloy is an incremental Git FTP and SFTP deployment tool. By keeping track of the state of the remote server(s) it deploys only the files that were committed since the last deployment. PHPloy supports submodules, sub-submodules, deploying to multiple servers and rollbacks. PHPloy requires PHP 7.3+ and Git 1.8+. PHPloy is very easy to use. PHPloy stores a file called .revision on the server. This file contains the hash of the commit that you have deployed to that server. When you run PHPloy, it downloads that file and compares the commit reference in it with the commit you are trying to deploy to find out which files to upload. The phploy.ini file holds your project configuration. It should be located in the root directory of the project. phploy.ini is never uploaded to server.
