How to publish Service Sign In pages

If a Content Designer adds a new page via Github, there's a good chance they'll be an external contributor.

See How to merge a change from an external contributor in the developer docs

The examples below are from a release from the Start Pages team

Releasing the new page

Once the change is merged, you can release these in two steps.

1. Deploy publisher
2. Run the Rake task to publish the new page

Running the Rake task

Go to the Jenkins Rake task job (Staging) (Production)

Run the task with the following parameters

Field	Value
TARGET_APPLICATION	publisher
MACHINE_CLASS	backend
RAKE_TASK	service_sign_in:publish[check-update-company-car-tax.en.yaml]

How to update Service Sign In pages

1. Follow the steps outlined above.
2. If a choose_sign_in option text has changed, the page must be purged from the cache. As the option text is parameterized to provide an option value for the radio button, failing to purge the page for the cache will result in a mismatch between the option value provided by the form and the option text in the content item, resulting in a 500 error.

How to unpublish Service Sign In pages

1. Find the content_id and locale of the page you would like to unpublish.

2. Go to the Jenkins Rake task job on Staging or Production

There are two ways to unpublish a Service Sign In Page; with a redirect, and without a redirect (410 gone).

Unpublishing with a redirect

3. Run the task with the following parameters, replacing the content-id, locale and /redirect/path with your own values.

Field	Value
TARGET_APPLICATION	publisher
MACHINE_CLASS	backend
RAKE_TASK	service_sign_in:unpublish_with_redirect[content-id,locale,/redirect/path]

Unpublishing without a redirect

3. Run the task with the following parameters, replacing the content-id and locale with your own values.

Field	Value
TARGET_APPLICATION	publisher
MACHINE_CLASS	backend
RAKE_TASK	service_sign_in:unpublish_without_redirect[content-id,locale]
