Run a TRIGGERcmd Deployment Script When a GitHub Release Is Published

Introduction

Connect GitHub and TRIGGERcmd to turn every new release into an automatic deployment. The moment a release is published in your selected repository, this workflow triggers your predefined deployment command on your chosen machine.

Benefits

  • Eliminates manual “deploy after release” steps
  • Speeds up release-to-production time with consistent execution
  • Reduces human error by standardizing the deployment command
  • Keeps deployments tied directly to your GitHub release process

Trigger Event

When a new release is published in GitHub for the repository you select.

Actions

  1. Detects the newly published GitHub release in the chosen repository.
  2. Uses TRIGGERcmd to run your selected command (for example, Run Deployment Script) on the selected computer.
  3. (Optional) Passes command parameters/flags if you provide them, allowing environment-specific or verbose deployments.
