Uploading a website to DigitalOcean can be done in a few easy steps.

$ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install -y git $ git clone https://github.com/DigitalOcean/DigitalOcean-webhook-setup.git $ cd DigitalOcean-webhook-setup $ cp .env.example .env $ cp .

env.local .production .

Next, you need to set up your DigitalOcean webhook. To do this, open the .

env file for your Droplet and add the following lines.

DigitalOcean_WEBHOOK_API_KEY = “.” DigitalOcean_WEBHOOK_API_SECRET = “.”.

Next, you need to create a webhook on your website. To do this, open your website’s admin panel and click on Webhooks.
