Set Up Build Deployment Between Circle CI And Github

Source: R/use-circle-deploy.R
use_circle_deploy.Rd

Creates a Circle CI "user-key" (= SSH key pair) if none exists yet to enable deployment from Circle CI builds to GitHub.

Usage

use_circle_deploy(
  repo = github_info()$name,
  user = github_info()$owner$login,
  quiet = FALSE
)

Arguments

repo

[character]
The repository slug to use. Must follow the "user/repo" structure.

user

[character]
The username for the repository. By default queried using get_user().

quiet

[logical]
If TRUE, console output is suppressed.

Value

No return value, called for side effects.

Details

The easiest way to achieve a deployment from Circle CI builds to a Github repo is by creating a so called "user-key" (i.e. an SSH key pair) on Circle CI.

use_circle_deploy() tries to be smart by exiting early if such a key is already present.

If the repo has not been enabled yet on Circle CI, please run enable_repo() first. Also to be able to authenticate to Github in the first place a personal access token needs to be set (via env var GITHUB_TOKEN). usethis::github_token() can be used to check if one is already set. If none is set, this function will prompt you to create one.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
use_circle_deploy()
}
