Continuous deployment
=====================

It’s a common pattern to auto-deploy your Modal App as part of a CI/CD pipeline. To get you started, below is a guide to doing continuous deployment of a Modal App in GitHub.

GitHub Actions 

Here’s a sample GitHub Actions workflow that deploys your App on every push to the `main` branch.

This requires you to create a [Modal token](https://modal.com/settings/tokens)
 and add it as a [secret for your Github Actions workflow](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/write-workflows/choose-what-workflows-do/use-secrets)
.

After setting up secrets, create a new workflow file in your repository at `.github/workflows/ci-cd.yml` with the following contents:

    name: CI/CD
    
    on:
      push:
        branches:
          - main
    
    jobs:
      deploy:
        name: Deploy
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        env:
          MODAL_TOKEN_ID: ${{ secrets.MODAL_TOKEN_ID }}
          MODAL_TOKEN_SECRET: ${{ secrets.MODAL_TOKEN_SECRET }}
    
        steps:
          - name: Checkout Repository
            uses: actions/checkout@v6
    
          - name: Install Python
            uses: actions/setup-python@v5
            with:
              python-version: "3.10"
    
          - name: Install Modal
            run: |
              python -m pip install --upgrade pip
              pip install modal
    
          - name: Deploy job
            run: |
              modal deploy -m my_package.my_file

Be sure to replace `my_package.my_file` with your actual entrypoint.

If you use multiple Modal [Environments](https://modal.com/docs/guide/environments)
, you can additionally specify the target environment in the YAML using `MODAL_ENVIRONMENT=xyz`.
