Repository path ~/deploy is not a directory.

I'm trying to setup Blitz to deploy to Netlify and I'm getting the errror Repository path ~/deploy is not a directory.

I've followed the article on setting up, and my structure is:

• Users
• • Me
• • • Sites
• • • • MySite
• • • • • cms
• • • • • deploy

I've tried adding the full path to the directory Users/myuser/Sites/MySite/deploy but I'm getting the same error every time. What is that expecting / what I'm I doing wrong?

~ is shorthand for your home directory, so I would expect ~/Sites/MySite/deploy and /Users/myuser/Sites/MySite/deploy to both work.

Thanks for the reply. I get the 'is not a directory' error with both of those. There's no blitz.log written when saving these, and the only thing in the web.log is Plugin settings saved. One or more deployer connections failed.'

I'm running this locally with ddev. Do I need to account for the container?

Probably. The best way to set the path might be via an alias, so set it to @deploy and then in your general config file:

return [
    'aliases' => [
        '@deploy' => dirname(__DIR__, 2) . '/deploy',
    ],
];

I forgot to comment but I got this working like this: '@deploy' => dirname(__DIR__) . '/web/deploy',

Not sure if that's correct but it did what I needed it today. Thanks!
