Versions:
CreatioHelper, published by fejdraus and currently available in version 1.1.7 with two released versions on record, is a cross-platform DevOps and deployment automation utility designed to automate routine operations on Terrasoft Creatio installations. The software is aimed at administrators and developers who manage Creatio environments and need to reduce the manual effort involved in package lifecycle management, configuration maintenance, and multi-instance synchronization. CreatioHelper is delivered through three complementary interfaces: a desktop application for interactive use, a headless command-line interface for scripting and integration into automated pipelines, and an agent service for unattended background operation. Its core functionality covers the installation and deletion of Creatio packages, compilation of the configuration through WorkspaceConsole, and management of IIS sites and application pools, which makes it relevant to Windows-hosted Creatio deployments. Compilation is offered at three depths, allowing users to choose between a standard Compile, a Fast Compile limited to changed schemas only, and a full Compile All, so that build time can be balanced against the scope of pending changes. Additional capabilities include clearing the Redis cache, editing the ConnectionStrings.config file through a dedicated form, and handling licenses, which consolidates several common maintenance tasks into a single tool. For environments that span more than one Creatio installation, CreatioHelper can synchronize changes across multiple instances using either SFTP or Syncthing, supporting distributed development and staging setups. A configuration rollback feature restores the state that existed before the last package installation, providing a recovery path when a deployment introduces problems. Within a software catalog, CreatioHelper falls into the deployment automation and application lifecycle management category, specifically targeting teams working with the Terrasoft Creatio platform who require repeatable, scriptable, and reversible operations across one or more instances.
