GitHub Actions Workflows

Update Demo Server

File: update-demo-server.yml

Automatically updates the public demo server when a new stable release is published.

Configuration Required

Add these secrets to your GitHub repository settings (SettingsSecrets and variablesActions):

  1. DEMO_SERVER_SSH_KEY

    • The private SSH key for accessing the demo server
    • Generate with: cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 (or your key file)
    • Should be the full private key including -----BEGIN and -----END lines
  2. DEMO_SERVER_HOST

    • The hostname or IP of the demo server
    • Value: 174.138.72.137 (or hostname if using DNS)
  3. DEMO_SERVER_USER

    • The SSH username for the demo server
    • Value: root (or the appropriate user with sudo access)

How It Works

  1. Trigger: Runs automatically when a GitHub release is published
  2. Filter: Only runs for stable releases (skips RC/pre-releases)
  3. Update: SSHs to demo server and runs the install script
  4. Verify: Checks that the new version is running and mock mode is active
  5. Cleanup: Removes SSH key from runner

Testing

To test without publishing a release:

  1. Go to Actions tab in GitHub
  2. Select Update Demo Server workflow
  3. Click Run workflow (if manual trigger is enabled)

Benefits

  • Demo server always showcases latest stable release
  • Validates install script works on real server
  • Removes manual step from release process
  • Free to run (public repos get unlimited GitHub Actions minutes)

Helm CI

File: helm-ci.yml

Runs helm lint --strict and renders the chart with common configuration combinations on every pull request that touches Helm content (and on pushes to main). This prevents regressions before they land.

  • Triggered by PRs/pushes touching deploy/helm/**, docs, or the workflow itself
  • Uses Helm v3.15.2
  • Renders both the default deployment and an agent-enabled configuration to catch template issues

Publish Helm Chart

File: publish-helm-chart.yml

Packages the Helm chart and pushes it to the GitHub Container Registry (OCI) whenever a GitHub Release is published. Also makes the packaged .tgz available as both an Actions artifact and a release asset. The same behaviour can be triggered locally via ./scripts/package-helm-chart.sh <version> [--push].

  • Triggered automatically on release: published, or manually via workflow dispatch (requires chart_version input)
  • Chart and app versions mirror the Pulse release tag (e.g., v4.24.04.24.0)
  • Publishes to oci://ghcr.io/<owner>/pulse-chart
  • Requires no additional secrets—uses the built-in GITHUB_TOKEN with packages: write permission
