• Deploying with jlenv
  • Ensure consistent PATH for processes

Setting up jlenv on a production server is exactly the same as in development. Some considerations for a hypothetical deployment strategy:

• It is suggested that there is a single user for deployment, e.g. “deploy” user
• JLENV_ROOT is at the default location: /home/deploy/.jlenv
• Julia versions are either installed or symlinked to ~/.jlenv/versions
• jlenv version 1.0 or greater is recommended.

Ensure consistent PATH for processes

Interactive, non-interactive shells, cron jobs, and similar processes for the “app” user all must ensure that jlenv is present in the PATH:

export PATH=~/.jlenv/shims:~/.jlenv/bin:"$PATH"
