Introduction
Set up your first preview
Every time a developer opens a pull request, Ergomake deploys a preview environment and adds a link to your pull request.
Your team can use those links to test your application and show your work to others.
After you merge your pull-request, the environment gets destroyed.
Getting started
-
Select the desired organization and click the “Add Repository” button.
-
During the installation process, you’ll be prompted to give it access to the repository for which you want to generate previews. Make sure to select all the repositories you need.
⚠️ Ergomake can’t generate previews if it doesn’t have access to a repository.
-
Click the
Configure
button in the dashboard. When you do that, Ergomake will create a PR for you with an example configuration file. Update this compose file with your application’s configurations so that we can spin up previews for your application. -
Merge Ergomake’s PR once you’re happy with how the preview looks.
