Description

Hi,
we use mlp as deploy tool, to deploy our projects on k8s.

Is there a way to disable, for a specific project, the "Smart Deploy" feature?

I didn't found that on the documentation.

Thanks.

Hi! Why do you need to disable the smart deploy?

[silversoul93]

Probably it could be a solution if isn't possible to remove the "Smart Deploy".

[davidebianchi]

We are thinking to set the Smart Deploy feature as the standard feature, since it is how Kubernetes works by default. I think it should be a straightforward way to manage the deploy. Why do you need specifically to remove it?

[silversoul93]

I agree with the Smart Deploy used by default, I think it's a great feature.
Despite that, there are clients that need to disable it for several reasons:

• initial development phase → I want to always release the latest version without letting the user choose for smart deployment;
• release flow → I test a specific tag of my project configuration and want to release the whole tag, with all the services inside (a brand new release of the whole project).

We discussed the use cases above with different clients, so I think this feature should be useful.

We don't need this anymore.

Anyway, at the moment, is not possible to "permanently" remove the Smart Deploy toggle to force all users to always perform a "Deploy All".
The only solution (a little bad in my opinion) is to force the full deploy directly in the pipelines, but it's a little misleading from the users perspective.
