# Apr 18th 2017, 16:55 theaxiom @hmic that makes sense, but not from a security standpoint
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:54 sjundee Right. Got some options to work on at least.
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:54 hmic as you have an atomic operation switching between versions!
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:54 hmic theaxiom: the opposite is true. it's even a best practice to symlink the public folder to your app
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:54 theaxiom you're obviously more than welcome to do it either way
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:54 theaxiom I wouldn't recommend using a symlink from a public folder to a private folder, that's just my opinion
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:53 theaxiom rsync is just a file copy tool which will copy all the files over to your desired location
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:53 theaxiom then delete your source directory afterward
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:53 theaxiom `rsync -vaz source> <dest`
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:52 theaxiom and then rsync it to the folder above public_html
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:52 theaxiom then clone it into a new folder above the folder above public_html
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:52 hmic theaxiom: i'd clone into a new dir besided public_html and just link public_html to the app/webroot dir.
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:52 theaxiom ok
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:52 sjundee I'm feel like I don't want to clone it into public_html as everything is in a public folder. Even if .htaccess prevents access
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:51 hmic theaxiom: still is the whole app "public"
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:51 theaxiom as long as you have AllowOverride
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:51 theaxiom if you clone right into public_html, the app by nature will be routed through webroot using .htaccess
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:50 sjundee apache
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:50 hmic if you clone into public_html it is
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:50 theaxiom Are you using Apache or Nginx @sjundee ?
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:50 sjundee Okay. rsync is new to me. I'll check that up. I guess I get the basic ideas here now.
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:50 theaxiom the rest isn't public
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:50 theaxiom after you rsync, you can then delete the source
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:49 hmic theaxiom: you miss his point: making webroot public, not the rest!
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:49 theaxiom `rsync -vaz`
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:49 theaxiom I would use rsync if anything
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:49 theaxiom I wouldn't do a symlink
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:49 kareylo Or symlink it
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:48 theaxiom otherwise, clone it and then rsync it
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:48 hmic sjundee: you can configure the webroot dir to any other dirname, like your public_html
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:48 theaxiom as long as public_html/ is empty
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:48 theaxiom you should just be able to clone right into public_html/
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:48 theaxiom by default, it should automatically only make /webroot/ public via .htaccess
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:48 theaxiom @sjundee wait a sec...
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:47 theaxiom clone it into a new directory by itself and use .htaccess to redirect to webroot
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:47 sjundee So `~/cake_app/` then. Then how would I make `~/cake_app/webroot/` public, but not the rest?
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:47 theaxiom you can use .htaccess
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:46 kareylo Create en folder and deploy in that folder
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:45 sjundee I'm trying to deploy an app I have been working on. It's on a shared hosting with SSH-access. When cloning to home directory (one level higher then public_html), it fails because directory is not empty. What would you do in a case like that?
# Apr 18th 2017, 16:41 sjundee Hi pips!
# Apr 18th 2017, 15:36 burzum Hmm let me review this, maybe we can work together.
