provide an example for using shell scripting in devops task:
Assuming we have a project
with a Node.js-based application, we want to automate the deployment process on a target server using shell scripting.
Our shell script would perform
the following tasks:
1. SSH into the target server
2. Stop the currently running application 3. Pull the latest changes from the Git repository 4. Run any necessary build or installation commands (e.g. "npm install") 5. Start the new version of the application 6. Check if the new version of the application is running and exit the script if it is.
Here's a sample implementation of the shell script:
``` #!/bin/bash
# Connect to the target server
ssh user@target-server
# Stop the running application
sudo systemctl stop node-app
# Navigate to the application
directory cd /var/www/node-app
# Pull the changes from Git
git pull origin master
# Install new dependencies
npm install
# Build the application
npm run build
# Start the new version of the
application sudo systemctl start node-app
# Check if the application is
running sudo systemctl status node-app | grep "active (running)"
# Exit the script
exit ```
This example shell script
automates the deployment process for the Node.js-based application. By running this script, the developer can deploy the latest changes and ensure the application is up and running without manual intervention.
