Travis CI – Laravel Forge / webhook integration

While developing tests for my app, I wanted to have an integration with Laravel Forge in this order:

1. Push to Github after commit
2. Tests done by Travis CI
3. Call the deployment trigger url of Laravel Forge / Envoyer if the test runs successfully. This URL looks like: https://forge.laravel.com/servers/111111/sites/2222222/deploy/http?token=TOKEN

To do this, create a travis.yml file like:

language: php

php:
  - 7.1

before_script:
  - cp .env.travis .env
  - mysql -e 'create database db_testing';
  - composer self-update
  - composer install --no-interaction
  - php artisan migrate

script:
  - vendor/bin/phpunit

after_success:
  - chmod +x ./tests.sh; ./tests.sh

Don’t forget to change the environment in phpunit.xml for example to change to a custom database:

The after_success script

Create a file tests.sh and insert:

#!/bin/bash

# Trigger deployment
# Replace the url below with your Forge/Laravel url
curl -s 'https://forge.laravel.com/servers/111111/sites/2222222/deploy/http?token=TOKEN';
echo 'Deployment triggered!'

Using other services than Travis or creating a custom test service
