Multiple Paths
Dandelion met recently and quite liked it.
However after some time using I thought it would be possible to use multiple paths, I may be talking nonsense, but what do you think of the idea below?
I have the following site structure app/ folder1/ public_html/folder2/
But on the server I would like to stay app/ folder1/ folder2/
I know of to include additional folders informing the way, are always put these folders are sent, regardless of whether or not changes have been made.
Would not be possible to inform different paths so that whenever a change is made in the folder folder2 changes to it are referred to public_html/folder2 sent folder?
Not forgetting thank me for this excellent tool, was one of the best options I found.
You might want to look into using Ansible in combination with dandelion. I'm deploying to multiple servers and directories on the same server with one config file per directory.
It's definitely not DRY, but it works until something can be built.
What about a config option where you specify some sort of path mapping? For example, in the case presented above something like:
path_map:
- public_html/folder2: folder2
Would something like this work for you? I'm not thrilled with the name path_map- any ideas?
Hi scttnlsn.
I think this would be a great solution and path_map name seems to fit well for this option.
A small doubt in this case would be transferred to folder2 only place that I specify, ignoring the original path?
If it works that way I think would be the perfect solution.
Hi @scttnlsn, great work on this little gem. Is this issue still open? I browsed the pull requests and this seems to be exactly the same as https://github.com/scttnlsn/dandelion/pull/61
@samgavinio Yeah, this issue is still open. #61 is a subset of this issue since it refers specifically to the additional_files and not files versioned with Git.
