Asked by Ragupathi

I’d like to deploy two websites from single github private repo. One website is the admin panel and another website is the main application. Both are subfolders inside the repo

private-repo/
|__ admin/
|__ main/

how many .yml files would I need and where?

Hi there,

You are referring to the DigitalOcean App Platform correct?

If so, then the answer is yes, it’s possible to deploy multiple websites from a single GitHub private repo on DigitalOcean’s App Platform. Each application (or service) in the DigitalOcean App Platform is defined in the do-app.yaml manifest file.

You would need a single do-app.yaml file as you can define multiple services within a single manifest file. Each service represents one of your websites.

You will have to specify the source_dir for each of the projects to correspond to the correct location.

Here is a quick example:

name: my-project
services:
- name: admin-panel
  environment_slug: php # or whatever environment you're using
  github:
    repo: username/private-repo
    branch: main
    deploy_on_push: true
  source_dir: admin
  http_routes:
    - path: /
      health_check:
        path: /health
        interval_sec: 10
  # ... any other necessary configurations for the admin panel

- name: main-application
  environment_slug: php # or whatever environment you're using
  github:
    repo: username/private-repo
    branch: main
    deploy_on_push: true
  source_dir: main
  http_routes:
    - path: /
      health_check:
        path: /health
        interval_sec: 10
  # ... any other necessary configurations for the main application
