How can I deploy Code Igniter 4 using git outside of public_html – Hostinger – CPanel

I would like to deploy the backend of my project outside of public_html, while the public files are on public_html. I don’t have much trouble when uploading the files manually to the file manager, but it’s a hassle for me to update them manually for every change on my git repository. So I wanted to use the deployment feature of Hostinger via git to upload them automatically.

I’ve made two Git repositories for my project, one for front-end (public) and one for backend

From the CPanel advance->git Create Repository Form, I manage to deploy my public files to the public_html folder. For the backend, I tried setting the directory field with the value of ../target_folder, assuming that the root folder is public_html. But I’m receiving an error message stating that the directory is invalid.

Is there a workaround for this?

    I recently got a reply from the Hostinger support team. Unfortunately, they do not support git deployment outside of public_html.

    My workaround for the backend is to deploy it on public_html in a subfolder with .htaccess to restrict users. Though it may not be the best solution for other web-hosting services.

    If you have ssh access in your hosting plan then you can create a new ssh key and do it manually by using

    git clone [email protected]:[github-name]/[repo-name].git /path/to/your/dir

    then you can do

    git pull

    as usual for evey push to your central repo. You can also try to automate things using cronjobs
