README

This repo provides a task for TYPO3 Surf to release your application with hardlinks instead of softlinks.

How it works

When the application is released, the release directory is copied to next using hardlinks:

cp -al 20201228192426 next

To switch the release to the new version, the directories current and next are moved:

mv ./current ./previous
mv ./next ./current

How to use

In the registerTasks() method of your application you can use the HardlinkReleaseRegisterer to replace the symlink release with a hardlink release:

(new \De\SWebhosting\TYPO3Surf\HardlinkReleaseRegisterer())
    ->replaceSymlinkWithHardlinkRelease($workflow, $this);
