->local() in YAML configuration

[ulrichmathes]

Hey, i want to define a small task within deploy.yaml with deployer v7

tasks:
  test:
    local: true
    script: 'cd {{release_path}}ext/sitepackage/ && yarn install --silent && yarn build'

But sadly that does not work. Is there an other configuration that i haven't seen?

The old php variant:

task('test', function () {
  run('cd {{release_path}}ext/sitepackage/ && yarn install --silent && yarn build');
})->local();

From the schema.json linked in the documentation, it's possible to see, that the key would be run_locally with its type being a string, not a boolean: https://github.com/deployphp/deployer/blob/master/src/schema.json#L62
Maybe it accepts a location/path as an argument?

I have the same question (even how to do it in Deployer 7 with PHP) and didn't have the time to delve into the code with my skill level.

@antonmedv can you help out?

[antonmedv]

task('test', function () {
  run('cd {{release_path}}ext/sitepackage/ && yarn install --silent && yarn build');
})->local();

This was deprecated because of ambiguity. If task is local what {{release_path}} refers to?

In your case you can be explicit: once: true to run on one (first) host only. Or use run_locally: to execute command locally.
