Deployments

In the Deployments tab, you will be able to:

  • publish your app,
  • preview a previous version of the Editor,
  • rollback to a previous version of the Editor.

Editor

This is where you can see all the automatic and manual backups of your project's Editor:

Editor deployments

Let's take a look at all the information and functionalities we have on this screen.

1. Pending commits

In the example above, there are "7 pending commits". This means that the Editor was backed-up 7 times without the project being published.

2. Automatic commits

WeWeb generates automatic backups of your project Editor:

  • every 24 hours if you're on a Starter plan,
  • every hour if you're on a Scale or Enterprise plan, and
  • every time you publish your app in staging or in production.

3. Manual commits

You can create a manual commit of the Editor with a custom message to describe the update by going to the Commit button inside the Editor:

Manual commit of the editor

4. Publish

When you click on the Publish to staging or Publish to production button, WeWeb will publish your app in the current version of the Editor.

Afterwards, there will be "No pending commits":

No pending commits

5. Preview

If you want to rollback to a previous version of the Editor, you can click on Preview to open the Editor in a read-only mode.

6. Rollback editor

Once you are confident you have identified the version of the Editor you want to restore, you can click on Rollback editor.

Staging

If you're on a Scale or Enterprise plan, this is where you can see the different versions of the application published on the staging environment.

In the example below, you can see:

  1. we published version 3 of our app,
  2. on the staging environment, and
  3. have the option to promote it to production.

Production

This is where you can see the different versions of the application published in production.

If you're on a Scale or Enterprise plan, you will have the option to rollback to a previous version of the app in production:
