How to do Adobe App (adobe IO) deployment using CI/CD?

Hi @mario248 ,

AIO workspace is NOT cloudmanager controlled. But you can sure automate with Jenkins if required. 

Adobe provides even better CI-CD devops experience using Github Actions. There are lot of documentation:

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/configuring-and-extending/app-builder/deploy

https://developer.adobe.com/app-builder/docs/guides/deployment/

https://developer.adobe.com/app-builder/docs/getting_started/publish_app/

https://developer.adobe.com/app-builder/docs/guides/deployment/ci_cd_for_firefly_apps/

I ll summarize if documentation is overwhelming

Adobe recommended way: Github Workflows

1. Inside your Github project, create .github/workflows folder
2. Create deploy_stage.yaml and copy this script
3. Create deploy_prod.yaml and copy this script
4. Add required github secrets. CD done. Next time commit happens to stage branch, it will automatically deploy the action. 
5. I simplified my Prod script like stage, to deploy when commit happens to `main` branch

Custom way using Jenkins:

1. You may not like the adobe Github workflows, maybe coz, you dont have enterprise github. Or want traditional waterfall methodology to deploy during production nights etc.
2. If you are writing Jenkins job, it is reinventing. You ll follow exact steps as adobe workflow
   1. Checkout code
   2. Install node, npm i
   3. install adobe/aio-cli-setup-action,  adobe/aio-apps-action
   4. setup secrets as env variables
   5. Finally run `aio app deploy`. If required add --force-build, verbose, --no-action, whatever required flags. 

One comment though, we tried converting workflow into curl commands and running inside a our client github runners. It failed due to client firewall restrictions. Advice would be to make adobe workflows run. And then explore alternate solutions if required.
