📚 Learn more about Python action features, integrations and alternatives.
With Buddy, you can create a pipeline that builds, tests, and deploys Python applications on a push to Git. The configuration is super simple and takes 10 to 15 minutes.

Configuration is very easy and takes only a couple of minutes.
1. Select your Git repository
Buddy supports all popular Git hosting providers, including GitHub, Bitbucket and GitLab. You can also use your own private Git server, or host code directly on Buddy.

Trigger modes
- Manually (on click) — recommended for Production
- On events (automatic) — recommended for Development
- On schedule (on time interval) — recommended for Staging/Testing
3. Add actions
Buddy lets you choose from dozens of predefined actions. In this example, we'll add 4 actions that will perform the following tasks:
- Build and test your Python application
- Upload application to server
- Run db migrations & restart application
- Send notification to Slack
3.1 Build and test your Python app
Look up and click Python on the action list to add it to the pipeline:
