Deploy code to a server behind a firewall

[1180778]

My college provided me with 2 virtual machines, one linux and one windows, I was planning to deploy code from my repository into the linux VM and then windows can access it via a samba shared folder because linux will rn my backend and windows will use pm2 serve build for my spa.

My problem is that both servers are on a closed network, accessible only via VPN that they provide us, Is there any way for me to create a pipeline to deploy that code to my machine in this case? 

And also can I configure it to do some commands like:

npm install -g, npm start 

or

npm install -g, npm run build, pm2 serve build 3000 --spa

Hi @1180778 

Unfortunately, it's currently not possible to access your resources in a private network from Bitbucket Pipelines unless you open up a port and then ssh into the machine to do the deployment.

I have got some good news for you, we are currently working on Bitbucket Pipelines self-hosted runners. This will allow you to execute your Bitbucket Pipelines step in your infrastructure behind a firewall. The current plan is to have a GA in Feb/March 2021. We will be doing an EAP in January, so please fill out the following form if you would like to get involved.

Cheers,
