Problem: We all know that sometimes a deployment adds content items that need to be published for a site to work and render properly. That's why TDS has a built-in post deploy step to publish the items that were just deployed. But what about all those content and media items that our content editors prepare in anticipation of a deployment? To publish those, we're often kicking off a full site publish.
Solution: This post deployment step will automatically trigger a site publish after a successful deployment.
Installation:
You can download the code for the PublishSite post deploy step here.
If you haven't yet, check out the instructions on how to add a custom post deploy step to your TDS project.
Once it's added to your TDS project, you can configure the following parameters:
- language - one or more comma-separated languages for which the publish will be performed. If omitted, a publish will be triggered for all available languages.
- target - one or more comma-separated target databases. If omitted, a publish will be triggered for all available publishing targets.
- mode - can be either 'full', 'smart', or 'incremental'. If omitted, the default option will be 'smart'
Example:
language=en-us,en-ca&target=cds1,cds2&mode=smart
If you have custom post deploy steps of your own, we'd love to hear about them.
