Automatic Deployment

hangar

Is it possible to deploy photon automatically? We'd want to be able to do things like hook up to our continuous integration and restart a development server every time it gets a new build. Or send out a good build to our production servers and have them run that build.

Hello,

Photon is just a Windows service, so you can of course implement your continous build / deployment process with Photon.

For example, we are often making use of Powershell scripts (together with Powershell Remoting) to start / stop / install Photon on our servers, or deploy Photon & application packages. I'm attaching a sample script - it's not ready for production, but should give you an idea what you can do. Of course, you can trigger scripts like these by your build server.
