Currently, the deployments are requested using an ApplicationDeploymentRequest record, for example, through the request-webapp-deployment command (PR)
In the request-webapp-deployment command, the target deployer has to be specified (--deployer); also, given app config (--env-file) is encrypted and uploaded to the deployer
For integrating provider auctions in the deployment flow however, where there can be multiple winners, the deployer(s) won't be known beforehand

Proposed approach:

Auction:
- Create a new type of record ApplicationDeploymentAuction wherein the auction id of a live provider auction is set
  - A new laconic-so command publish-deployment-auction can be implemented that creates an auction and publishes the required record
- The deployer queries for these ApplicationDeploymentAuction records in addition to ApplicationDeploymentRequests
- For each auction, the deployer places a bid if configured max_price in auction is within deployer's configured rate
Post auction:
- On auction completion, call request-webapp-deployment with the auction id, where, in addition to publishing an ApplicationDeploymentRequest record, it will upload the encrypted config to all deployers owned by the auction winners
- Rest of the application deployment flow works as it is

* Currently, the deployments are requested using an `ApplicationDeploymentRequest` record, for example, through the `request-webapp-deployment` command ([PR](https://git.vdb.to/cerc-io/stack-orchestrator/pulls/938)) * In the `request-webapp-deployment` command, the target deployer has to be specified (`--deployer`); also, given app config (`--env-file`) is encrypted and uploaded to the deployer * For integrating `provider` auctions in the deployment flow however, where there can be multiple winners, the deployer(s) won't be known beforehand Proposed approach: * Auction: * Create a new type of record `ApplicationDeploymentAuction` wherein the auction id of a live `provider` auction is set * A new laconic-so command `publish-deployment-auction` can be implemented that creates an auction and publishes the required record * The deployer queries for these `ApplicationDeploymentAuction` records in addition to `ApplicationDeploymentRequest`s * For each auction, the deployer places a bid if configured `max_price` in auction is within deployer's configured rate * Post auction: * On auction completion, call `request-webapp-deployment` with the auction id, where, in addition to publishing an `ApplicationDeploymentRequest` record, it will upload the encrypted config to all deployers owned by the auction winners * Rest of the application deployment flow works as it is

Implementation notes:

Note: The flow mentioned below is an alternative to existing one which should continue working as it is

User (app owner/deployment requester) publishes an ApplicationRecord and sets a name to it
User runs the new laconic-so command publish-deployment-auction
- This will create an SP auction
- Also publish an ApplicationDeploymentAuction record
webapp-deployer picks up ApplicationDeploymentAuction and places a bid if configured max_price in auction is within deployer's configured rate
Once the auction is complete, user calls the command request-webapp-deployment with auction id
- This will resolve webapp-deployers for all the auction winners
- Upload encrypted config to all resolved webapp-deployers
- Publish an ApplicationDeploymentRequest record targeted to each webapp-deployer
  - Record can now have auction_id instead of payment
webapp-deployer picks up above ApplicationDeploymentRequest
- If auction is set, it will check if it is in auction winners list instead of checking for payment
- Deploy web-app and publish an ApplicationDeploymentRecord
User releases funds once they see an ApplicationDeploymentRecord and perform deployment health checks
