# GitHub Actions Workflows ## Update Demo Server **File**: `update-demo-server.yml` Automatically updates the public demo server (`pulse-relay`) when a new stable release is published. ### Configuration Required Add these secrets to your GitHub repository settings (`Settings` → `Secrets and variables` → `Actions`): 1. **DEMO_SERVER_SSH_KEY** - The private SSH key for accessing the demo server - Generate with: `cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519` (or your key file) - Should be the full private key including `-----BEGIN` and `-----END` lines 2. **DEMO_SERVER_HOST** - The hostname or IP of the demo server - Value: `174.138.72.137` (or hostname if using DNS) 3. **DEMO_SERVER_USER** - The SSH username for the demo server - Value: `root` (or the appropriate user with sudo access) ### How It Works 1. **Trigger**: Runs automatically when a GitHub release is published 2. **Filter**: Only runs for stable releases (skips RC/pre-releases) 3. **Update**: SSHs to demo server and runs the install script 4. **Verify**: Checks that the new version is running and mock mode is active 5. **Cleanup**: Removes SSH key from runner ### Testing To test without publishing a release: 1. Go to `Actions` tab in GitHub 2. Select `Update Demo Server` workflow 3. Click `Run workflow` (if manual trigger is enabled) Or test manually: ```bash ssh pulse-relay "curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rcourtman/Pulse/main/install.sh | sudo bash" ``` ### Benefits - ✅ Demo server always showcases latest stable release - ✅ Validates install script works on real server - ✅ Removes manual step from release process - ✅ Free to run (public repos get unlimited GitHub Actions minutes)
