API

Each command can also be accessed programatically by calling deploy[command](remote, options), and will return a promise. e.g.

var deploy = require('ssh-deploy');
deploy.publish('root:password@127.0.0.1', {directory: process.cwd}).then(function () {
  return deploy.start('root:password@127.0.0.1', {directory: process.cwd, host: 'example.com'});
}).done(function () {
  console.log('updated deployment');
});
