Frappe Deploy Command

Guide deployment of Frappe applications to production:

1. Pre-deployment checklist:
   • Verify all changes are committed to git
   • Ensure migrations are tested
   • Check for breaking changes
   • Confirm backup exists
   • Review security settings
2. Environment verification:
   • Confirm target environment (staging/production)
   • Check SSH access to production server
   • Verify bench directory on production
3. Deployment preparation:
   • Ask about deployment method:
     • Git pull and migrate
     • Full bench update
     • Specific app update
   • Ask about downtime window
   • Confirm maintenance mode preference
4. Deployment steps:
   • Enable maintenance mode: bench --site <site-name> set-maintenance-mode on
   • Pull latest changes: git pull in app directory
   • Install dependencies: bench setup requirements
   • Run migrations: bench --site <site-name> migrate
   • Build assets: bench build --app <app-name>
   • Clear cache: bench --site <site-name> clear-cache
   • Restart services: sudo supervisorctl restart all or bench restart
   • Disable maintenance mode: bench --site <site-name> set-maintenance-mode off
5. Post-deployment verification:
   • Check site is accessible
   • Verify key functionality
   • Check error logs
   • Monitor performance
6. Rollback plan: Provide rollback instructions if issues occur:
   • Revert git commits
   • Restore from backup
   • Previous version migration

Production safety: Emphasize testing in staging first, backing up before deployment, and having a rollback plan ready.
