I'm working on a fabfile.py to stop repetition and deploy automatically.
I'm using the prefix("workon vpenv"): provided by fabric but here is the problem: when running git pull everything works well, but when I run run("python manage.py makemigrations --settings=config.settings.production") I get the following error:
[venuepark.com] run: python manage.py makemigrations --settings=config.settings.production

Executed: /bin/bash -l -c "cd /home/tony/vp/vp >/dev/null && workon vpenv && python manage.py makemigrations --settings=config.settings.production"
my fabfile.py is as follows:
def deploy():
code_directory = "/path/to/somewhere"
with cd(code_directory):
with prefix("workon vpenv"):
run("git pull")
run("python manage.py makemigrations --settings=config.settings.production")
run("python manage.py migrate --settings=config.settings.production")
run("python manage.py collectstatic --settings=config.settings.production")
sudo("pkill gunicorn")
sudo("systemctl daemon-reload")
sudo("systemctl start gunicorn")
sudo("systemctl enable gunicorn")
sudo("systemctl restart nginx")
What could cause the error?
When I run the commands on the server itself I get no errors.
It seems that the target machine where you're deploying doesn't know anything about a VP_SECRET_KEY environment variable. You could set it during provision stage if you wish.
In your settings.base you're taking the SECRET_KEY config parameter from an environment variable that is not set. You should set it in the target machine. Example:
export VP_SECRET_KEY="mysecretkey"
