A systemd inspired system configuration and deployment tool

system-deploy is my personal server management and deployment tool. It's inspired by systemd's unit files and the deployment tool/script used @safing. It currently supports copying files/directories, installing packages and installing/enabling systemd unit files. system-deploy is meant to be executed periodically and supports running different actions and tasks when changes are detected.

The compiled binary itself includes help and documentation for almost all supported operations and even some examples.

Checkout system-conf for a systemd inspired configuration system for Go projects.

Please checkout the documentation at ppacher.github.io/system-deploy.

system-deploy is written in and thus requires a working go installation to be compiled from source.

go install github.com/ppacher/system-deploy/cmd/system-deploy

This will install the deploy command into your $GOBIN or $GOPATH/bin if the former is not set.

Any contributions to the system-deploy project are welcome! Just fork the repository and create a PR with your changes. It's recommended to discuss planned changes in an issue first.
