Introduction

Bunnyshell uses your connected Git account to do the following:

Pull your code for building container images
Read application configuration files, such as Docker-compose or Dockerfiles
Determine when to create ephemeral environments, through webhooks
Update applications when new commits are available, through webhooks

Supported Git Version Control Systems (VCS)

Webhooks

Webhooks are calls made from your Git Version Control Systems (VCS) back to Bunnyshell when certain events happen. Bunnyshell, based on defined rules, uses these events to trigger automatic updates of applications or automatic creating of ephemeral environments.

You can find below the git action Bunnyshell tracks and the automatic actions that can be triggered:

Push - Update an application with the latest code on the branch deployed.
New Pull Request - Create ephemeral environments with the branch in the Pull Request.
Applications will be targeted based on their deployed branch being the same as the PR target.
Closed Pull Request - Destroy an ephemeral environment when the Pull Request is closed or merged.
Re-open Pull Request - Recreate an environment when a Pull Request is re-opened.
