# Deploy updates via Capistrano
After you followed the [manual installation guide](installation.md) it is simple to push updates to your huginn instance using capistrano.
### 1. Ensure you have SSH access to your server via the huginn user
Either set a password for the huginn user or add your public SSH key:
# Set password
sudo passwd huginn
# Or add a SSH key
sudo -u huginn -H mkdir -p /home/huginn/.ssh
sudo -u huginn -H editor /home/huginn/.ssh/authorized_keys
sudo -u huginn -H chmod -R 700 /home/huginn/.ssh
### 2. Configure Capistrano on your local machine
Add Capistrano configuration to you local `.env`:
CAPISTRANO_DEPLOY_SERVER=<IP or FQDN of your server>
CAPISTRANO_DEPLOY_USER=huginn
CAPISTRANO_DEPLOY_REPO_URL=https://github.com/huginn/huginn.git
### 3. Run Capistrano
You can now run Capistrano and update your server:
cap production deploy
If you want to deploy a different branch, pass it as environment variable:
cap production deploy CAPISTRANO_DEPLOY_BRANCH=awesome-feature
### Changes to remote .env and Procfile
If you want to change the `.env`, `Procfile` or `config/unicorn.rb` of your installation you still need to do it on your server, do not forget to export the init scripts after your are done:
cd /home/huginn/huginn
# Whichever you want to change
sudo -u huginn -H editor Procfile
sudo -u huginn -H editor .env
sudo -u huginn -H editor config/unicorn.rb
# Export init scripts and restart huginn
sudo rake production:export
