Would you like to set up an Upstash Redis database now? No ? Would you like to deploy now? Yes Once this is done the current version of your code is deployed.

Then head to secrets and variables. Then actions. Then add a Repository Secret with the name FLY_API_TOKEN Then you can create .github/workflows/continuous-deployment.yml file with the following content. Notice this uses the secret token you just configured. name: Fly Deploy on: push: branches: - main env: FLY_API_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.FLY_API_TOKEN }} jobs: deploy: name: Deploy app runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v3 - uses: superfly/flyctl-actions/setup-flyctl@master - run: flyctl deploy --remote-only Where - main is the name of the branch you want to update off of.
