.github/workflows/delete.yaml

Overview

When a deployment is initiated, three configuration files are automatically generated. They are the:

• .art/art.yaml
• .github/workflows/argonaut-<envname>-<appname>-deploy.yaml
• .github/workflows/argonaut-<envname>-<appname>-delete.yaml

This section provides a breakdown of the .github/workflows/argonaut-<envname>-<appname>-delete.yaml file and explains the functioning.

File breakdown

This file is triggered when you initiate a delete action on the branch or app (from the dashboard). The corresponding .github/workflows/argonaut-<envname>-<appname>-delete.yaml file for an app is created in the branch of deployment and also in the default branch previews branch.

The only job run in this file is the delete job.

                run: echo "Clean up for the branch ${{ github.event.ref }}"
            - name: Download art
                run: curl --silent https://github.com/argonautdev/public/releases/latest/download/art-linux -L -o art
            - name: Configure art
                run: |
                    chmod +x ./art
                    sudo mv ./art /usr/local/bin/art
                    art configure --key ${{ secrets.ART_KEY }} --secret ${{ secrets.ART_SECRET }}
                    art app delete -f .art/argonaut-{environment}{app-name}.yaml --set appName="{app-name}-${{ github.event.ref }}"

The delete job is carried out in a few steps

• The first two steps, fetch repo and fetch branch does exactly what the name suggests. The fetch branch script then prints the branch in the output.
• The next step downloads the art cli, which is Argonaut's command-line interface. The cli is essential to run the delete shell scripts.
• The last step configures the art cli and then finally runs the script that deletes the app.
