How to deploy via ftp a website using bitbucket pipelines?

@lew 

To deploy a website using Bitbucket Pipelines via FTP, you will need to create a pipeline configuration file in your Bitbucket repository that includes the necessary FTP deployment steps. Here is an example of how you can set up a basic deployment process using FTP in Bitbucket Pipelines:

1. Set up your FTP credentials as environment variables in your Bitbucket repository settings. These credentials will be used to connect to your FTP server for deployment. You can set up these variables by going to Settings > Repository settings > Repository variables.
2. Create a bitbucket-pipelines.yml file in the root directory of your Bitbucket repository. This file will define the steps that need to be executed in the pipeline.
3. Add the necessary steps in the bitbucket-pipelines.yml file to deploy your website via FTP. Here is an example configuration:

image: atlassian/default-image:2

pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
        script:
          - apt-get update && apt-get install -y lftp
          - lftp -e "open -u $FTP_USERNAME,$FTP_PASSWORD $FTP_SERVER ; mirror -R ./public_html /path/to/remote/directory ; bye"

1. Replace $FTP_USERNAME, $FTP_PASSWORD, and $FTP_SERVER with the environment variables you set up in Step 1. Replace /path/to/remote/directory with the path on your FTP server where you want to deploy your website files.
2. Commit and push the bitbucket-pipelines.yml file to your Bitbucket repository. This will trigger the pipeline to run and deploy your website via FTP.

Once the pipeline is run, Bitbucket Pipelines will execute the steps defined in the configuration file and deploy your website files to the specified FTP server. You can customize and expand on this basic example to fit the specific requirements of your deployment process.
