Hello, my name is Simon Ernst.

Simplicity is at the heart of everything I do. If you are a developer, you know how complex the average deployment system is. Mine looks like this:

> ./deploy.sh Deploying... Done. 

#!/bin/sh TARGET_HOST="simon@simonernst.com" TARGET_DIR="/var/www/simonernst" echo Deploying... git archive -o bundle.tgz HEAD && scp -q bundle.tgz $TARGET_HOST:/tmp/ && rm bundle.tgz && ssh $TARGET_HOST 'bash -s' <<ENDSSH mkdir -p $TARGET_DIR && rm -rf $TARGET_DIR/* tar xfzo /tmp/bundle.tgz -C $TARGET_DIR rm /tmp/bundle.tgz ENDSSH echo Done. 

Modern operating systems come with a variety of tools and scripting languages pre-installed. There is no need for expensive and resource hungry third party software. It’s just a matter of combining what is already there.
