This is the official documentation of the forestadmin-agent-django and forestadmin-agent-flask Python agents.

The forest push command enables you to apply your local changes to a Remote Environment: for instance, pushing to your staging environment will result in your latest local layout changes being visible on your staging.

$ forest push --help
Push layout changes of your current branch to the branch origin.

USAGE
  $ forest push

OPTIONS
  --projectId=projectId          The id of the project to work on.
  --force                        Skip push changes confirmation.
  --help                         Display usage information.

Pushing to a Remote Environment

It is paramount to understand this command before using it:

Pushing a branch to a Remote Environment means applying your latest layout changes to your origin Environment of your branch. In the figure above, your layout changes (Δ) will be moved from my-branch to Staging.

Pushing your changes from your local branch will automatically delete it.

To push layout changes to your origin:

$ forest push

You will be prompted for confirmation before pushing to a remote:

$ forest push
[? Push branch my-current-branch onto Remote2 (Y|n): Y

To skip that confirmation, use the --force option.

Push from the UI

This action is only possible for Remote Environments that have an origin that is not the reference Environment (so generally not Production as origin).

To push your latest layout changes from a Remote Environment, use the top banner link: "Push to ...".

Difference between push and deploy commands

Do not be confused by forest push and forest deploy commands.

  • forest push applies the latest layout changes of a branch or environment to a non-reference environment (i.e. Remote Environments once your admin panel live in production).

  • forest deploy applies your latest layout changes definitively to your reference environment (i.e. Production once your admin panel live in production).

You cannot push to the Production Environment, because anything added on Production should be definitive. Therefore you can only deploy to Production.
