# Shell to Python Continuous Deployment Get a common set of Python based CI / CD commands\ from various contexts of CA, DNS, CI and OS / OCI. --- ## Why Project workflows can occur in: * an online or offline context, dealing with custom CA & DNS servers * various Continuous Integration platforms, with different workflow syntaxes * specific Operating Systems, having different commands and package names * specific containers for JavaScript based actions (ForgeJo, Gitea, GitHub) What if there was a unified way to do so? --- ## How Picture it… ### Group environment variables * numbered * Certificate Authority armored certificates * Domain Name System servers IP addresses * ref names for deployment contexts of feature, staging & release * alternate locations of * Operating Systems & Software packages * Git repositories of * this project * its parent framework * projects not available in some distributions * shunit2 * SSH key & hosts for deployments * a standalone POSIX shell script payload ### Workflow files * calling the POSIX shell script payload as their very first step * using a unified YAML syntax made of actions implemented in Python ### Integration & Deployment #### Shell * [X] setting up the chosen Operating System container * [X] Domain Name System resolving * [X] package manager configuration & repositories * [X] Certificate Authorities trusting * [X] Operating System updating * [X] installing Git to clone * [X] this project * [X] its parent framework * [X] installing both Python * [X] system environment * [X] virtual environment * [X] generating a Python module to switch context #### Python * [X] setting up an OpenSSH client * [X] known hosts * [ ] private key * [ ] and finally parsing commands from * [X] system * [ ] workflow * [ ] to run available actions * [ ] check project * [ ] build project * [X] browse workspace * [ ] synchronize --- ##
