Dear all,
Does my code workflow in yml below is correct for deploying into vps ?

name: Deployment Workflow
on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]

jobs:
  job_one:
    name: Deploy
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: testing myweb.com ssh connection
      uses: appleboy/ssh-action@master
      with:
        host: myweb.com
        username: root
        key: ${{ secrets.MYWEB_SECRET }}
        port: 22
        script: |
          cd /var/www/myweb.com
          git pull origin main
          mix deps.get --only prod
          export SECRET_KEY_BASE=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
          export DATABASE_URL=ecto://postgres:password@localhost:5432/myweb_prod
          MIX_ENV=prod mix compile
          MIX_ENV=prod mix assets.deploy
          MIX_ENV=prod mix ecto.migrate
          MIX_ENV=prod mix release --overwrite
          _build/prod/rel/myweb/bin/myweb stop
          _build/prod/rel/myweb/bin/myweb daemon

SECRET_KEY_BASE i get in my server app when i try make generate that

Before push into my github to deploy into my server i make some steps below :
I try type in my server _build/prod/rel/myweb/bin/myweb start but showing error like below :
07:28:24.954 [info] Configuration :server was not enabled for MyappWeb.Endpoint, http/https services won't start

Why those appear?

Phoenix by default doesn’t start listening on a port. You need to configure it to enable that, e.g. using

config :myapp, MyAppWeb.Endpoint, server: true

This has nothing to do with github actions.

Generally there’s a few things to optimize here. Move the secrets out of the yml, they shouldn’t be in there. Let the github action build the release instead of doing the release building on the target server. That’ll also remove the need for the target server to have elixir and whatever you need for assets.deploy installed.

Also using …/myapp daemon is imo not a great long term solution. You’d want to start the release using the init system of your target os (most likely systemd on linux).

Thankyou Sir

Another way is to use runtime.exs…

and run mix phx.gen.release, or set PHX_SERVER true before starting release

# Alternatively, you can use `mix phx.gen.release` to generate a `bin/server`
# script that automatically sets the env var above.
if System.get_env("PHX_SERVER") do
  config :koko, KokoWeb.Endpoint, server: true
end
