While deploying projects from GitHub to Replit, do you

• Commit
• Push to GitHub
• Open Replit
• Pull changes
• Stop, and
• Re-run?

or, even worse, merge a pull request and then forget to pull changes manually?

Now you don't need to do all of that! Introducing, repl.deploy, a combination of a GitHub app, written in TypeScript, and a Daemon, written in Go. repl.deploy lets you automatically deploy from GitHub to Replit, lightning fast ⚡️

How it works:

• When you commit, GitHub sends an event to a hosted instance of the repl.deploy server
• A payload consisting of both the endpoint and the current time is prepared and signed with an RSA private key
• The daemon running on the repl recieves the payload, and
  • Verifies the signature
  • Checks that the endpoint matches (this is to prevent someone from just forwarding a signed request to your repl and causing it to restart)
  • Checks that the timestamp is less than 15 seconds old (this is to prevent someone from abusing a signature in the event that a signed request is leaked by you)
• If the request is valid, the daemon
  • runs git fetch --all and then git reset --hard origin/main
  • restarts your program
