Summary

Octopus Deploy introduced a feature called raw scripting to address scenarios where users cannot install dependencies like Mono and Calamari on their SSH endpoints. This feature allows scripts to be executed directly through an SSH connection without additional wrapping, enabling deployment on devices where installing these elements is not feasible. Raw scripting requires setting a project variable and configuring SSH targets, bypassing health checks for dependencies like Mono and Calamari, and utilizing variable replacement syntax for script execution. Additionally, Octopus Deploy offers a "Transfer A Package" step that moves packages without extraction, catering to needs such as processing through scripts or uploading to other servers. This feature aims to provide a streamlined, efficient deployment process for users seeking a minimalist approach to deploying applications on Linux servers or other platforms with limited installation capabilities.
