Are you a developer looking for a reliable and efficient way to connect Bitbucket with your Hostinger shared hosting? Look no further – we’ve got you covered! In this blog post, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of connecting Bitbucket with Hostinger shared hosting, allowing you to seamlessly deploy your code and manage your projects.

Step 1: Generate SSH Key

The first step is to generate an SSH key that will be used to authenticate your connection between Bitbucket and Hostinger. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Open your terminal or command prompt.
2. Run the following command to generate a new SSH key: ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"
3. Choose a secure passphrase when prompted. Remember to save this passphrase for future reference.
4. Once the key is generated, navigate to the directory where the key is stored. By default, it is usually located in ~/.ssh/.
5. Open the public key file (ending with .pub) and copy its contents.

Step 2: Add SSH Key to Bitbucket

Now that you have generated your SSH key, the next step is to add it to your Bitbucket account. Here’s how:

1. Log in to your Bitbucket account.
2. Click on your profile picture in the top right corner and select ‘Settings’.
3. In the left sidebar, click on ‘SSH keys’.
4. Click on ‘Add key’.
5. Paste the contents of your public key into the ‘Key’ field.
6. Give your key a descriptive label and click on ‘Add key’.

Step 3: Configure SSH in Hostinger

Now that your SSH key is added to Bitbucket, it’s time to configure SSH in your Hostinger shared hosting account:

1. Log in to your Hostinger account.
2. Navigate to the ‘SSH Access’ section.
3. Click on ‘Manage SSH Keys’.
4. Click on ‘Add Key’.
5. Paste the contents of your public key into the ‘Public key’ field.
6. Give your key a descriptive name and click on ‘Add’.

Step 4: Test the Connection

With everything set up, it’s time to test the connection between Bitbucket and Hostinger:

1. Open your terminal or command prompt.
2. Run the following command to test the connection: ssh -T git@bitbucket.org
3. If everything is set up correctly, you should see a success message.

That’s it! You have successfully connected Bitbucket with your Hostinger shared hosting. Now you can easily deploy your code and manage your projects with ease. Happy coding!
