# Cockpit CMS Drone Deploys Addon
This addons is a modified version of the addon [CockpitCMS-Netlify](https://github.com/pauloamgomes/CockpitCMS-Netlify).
It provides an integration with Drone CI promote feature to trigger a pipeline run. You can use it to deploy a website based on data in Cockpit CMS and built with a static site generator.
## Installation
1. Confirm that you have Cockpit CMS (Next branch) installed and working.
2. Download and extract to 'your-cockpit-docroot/addons' (e.g. cockpitcms/addons/Drone, the addon folder name must be Drone)
3. Drone icon will apear, if configuration is completed.
## Configuration
1. Ensure that from your Drone account you have an access token and permissions to promote a build for the project and branch, you want to use.
2. Edit Cockpit config/config.yaml and add a new entry for drone like below:
```yaml
drone:
url: https://YOUR.DRONE.SERVER
token: <your drone access token>
owner: <the owner of the git repository>
project: <the git project>
branch: <the branch in your git repository for the deployment>
target: <the target condition used in your drone pipeline>
build: <the build number used as base for deployment> # leave empty and the addon will use the latest successfull build based on a push event
```
### Permissions
There are just two permissions:
- **manage.view** - provides access to the Drone deploy list
- **manage.deploy** - provides access to trigger a new deploy

kind: pipeline

steps:
- name: deploy website
image: alpine

# your deploy commands here
