Python: Creating the staging environment

This documentation is part of the Deploy with GitHub Actions guide. View the full guide here: How to deploy your Python code using GitHub Actions.

👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero provides a ready-to-use Python cloud solution designed to streamline your deployment process:

  • Deploy your application to production in seconds with a simple git push.
  • Use your own domain name, with automatic HTTPS certificate configuration for secure connections handled for you.
  • Rely on automatic backups, one-click updates, and predictable pricing, so you can focus on your code, not infrastructure management.
  • Benefit from strong performance and security on a private, dedicated infrastructure. Your environment is isolated and protected.

Save time and simplify your workflow: you can have your code running with Stackhero's Python cloud hosting in just 5 minutes.

Setting up a staging environment is almost identical to configuring production. You can simply repeat the steps above, replacing production with staging wherever it appears.

After setting up the environment, you can create a staging branch like this:

git checkout -b staging

Then push your staging branch to GitHub:

git push --set-upstream origin staging

Your staging branch will now be automatically deployed to the Python instance you designated for staging.
