Here we walk through the basics of creating an app in dokku and pushing your app to it. Notably it's necessary that your code-base is already set up as a git repository. All examples is my-app, this should be replaced with the app you're trying to manage.
For more information, see the application-deployment docs on dokku.
# configure your app on dokku (replace my-app with your app name)
dokku apps:create my-app# configure your codebase for pushing to dokku
# must be executed in the directory of your repository
git remote add production dev.maayanlab.cloud:my-app
# push app to dokku, you should see messages about the deployment
# including posibly an error message if something went wrong.
git push -u production mainHaving issues? Check out common deployment issues and their solutions.
Proceed with finalizing the deployment.
For more information, see dokku's docs on the subject.
Dokku can initialize the git repo for you if all you want to do is deploy an existing docker image on dockerhub. After creating the app it's:
# replace my-app and org/image with the app name and docker image respectively
dokku git:from-image my-app org/imageProceed with finalizing the deployment.
# overwrite any broken proxy config dokku inferred (replace 5000 with the port your container serves on)
dokku proxy:clear-config my-app
dokku proxy:ports-set my-app 'http:80:5000'
dokku traefik:enable my-app
# your app is automatically deployed at https://my-app.dev.maayanlab.cloudWith your github repo setup, after making new commits you can update the dokku deployment by simply running
git push -u production mainIf you broke something and want to rollback, you can use git for this
# checkout the working code (e.g. HEAD~1 would be the last commit, alternatively locate the commit hash of the working code)
git checkout <working-commit>
git push -u production main --force
# go back to main
git checkout main
