Deployer is a command-line PHP deployment tool that performs atomic, reversible releases via a symlink switch, with a single-word rollback command. It ships with built-in recipes for popular PHP frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, WordPress, Drupal, Magento, and others), can deploy to multiple servers in parallel over SSH, and includes a provisioning command that sets up a fresh Ubuntu server with PHP, a database, a firewall, and HTTPS certificates.
