DeployHQ and nginx user for site

Hi everyone.

Hoping for a pointer in the right direction as a relative amateur but keen to learn.

I use centminmod with deployhq from bitbucket. Its worked great in simple terms where I deploy using nginx user.

---

Ive setup another server though and want to use a user such as 'deployhq' for what im assuming would be better practice instead of opening up 'nginx' user. Added this user to sudoers but obviously doesnt have access to the site directories unless running sudo prefix so deployhq as a tool does not have access to push the files as it does not have write access.

Is there a way to work with this or am I going down the wrong path?

Many thanks.

 

Beginning to think maybe im going overkill and should in fact just use nginx as I originally did.

 

Thanks so much for the reply. Makes total sense. I got too sucked into the shared hosting mentality when thinking this through.

As always with these things... KISS

Thanks again for the help and Centminmod!
