Features

• Git-Push Deployments - Automates the build and deployment sequence immediately upon receiving a git push to the server.
• Project Runtime Identification - Detects programming languages from repository files to automate dependency installation and runtime configuration.
• Application Process Definitions - Specifies how to run servers, workers, and tasks using a configuration file to manage different process types.
• Web Server Configurations - Automatically generates and reloads web server configurations to route traffic to deployed applications.
• Language Runtime Detection - Automatically detects the programming language of a repository to determine the correct build toolchain and runtime.
• Polyglot Application Deployments - Manages the build and runtime process for various programming languages using environment-specific configuration files.
• Process Orchestrators - Orchestrates the lifecycle of web servers and background workers using defined process types.
• Reverse Proxy Configurations - Automatically configures a reverse proxy to route incoming HTTP traffic to the appropriate application processes.
• Self-Hosted Applications - Enables running multiple web applications and background workers on a single private server with isolated environments.
• Self-Hosted PaaS Tools - Provides a platform for deploying applications to private servers using git push to automate builds and updates.
• Worker Process Management - Manages the lifecycle and scaling of web servers and background workers using a process configuration file.
• HTTP Reverse Proxies - Routes incoming HTTP traffic to specific backend application processes using a reverse proxy.
• Proxy Server Management - Manages web server configurations to route incoming HTTP traffic to specific application processes.
• Language-Specific Runtime Environments - Manages dependencies and execution settings for different programming languages across various deployment environments.
• Multi-Language Runtime Support - Detects programming languages from repository files to handle dependency installation and runtime configuration.
• Multi-Tenant Application Hosting - Assigns unique hostnames to different applications on a single server and manages their respective SSL certificates.
• Application Persistence - Stores application files in dedicated directories that remain intact across redeployments to prevent data loss.
• Persistent Application Volumes - Maintains application state across redeployments by mounting persistent directories that survive the build process.
• Application Settings Management - Defines and persists application-wide configuration settings and environment variables for the server.
• Configuration File Loading - Loads application settings and secrets from persistent server-side environment files to determine runtime behavior.
• Deployment Lifecycle Hooks - Provides sequential execution of specialized cleanup and build tasks during the deployment lifecycle.
• Environment Configuration - Manages deployment-time environment variables and server settings via configuration files or remote commands.
• Process Scaling - Starts and scales worker processes based on configuration files to manage application workloads.
• Recurring Job Scheduling - Schedules and executes recurring tasks using simplified cron expressions for automated timing.
• Runtime Environment Configuration - Controls application execution by defining runtime versions, package managers, and environment variables in a deployed file.
• ACME Certificate Provisioners - Implements an ACME-based system for automatically acquiring and renewing SSL/TLS certificates.
• SSL Certificate Automation - Provides automated acquisition and renewal of SSL/TLS certificates via the ACME protocol for secure application traffic.
• Background Processing Workers - Executes persistent background worker processes for non-web tasks with independent logging streams.
• Static Content Delivery - Maps URL prefixes to filesystem paths to deliver static assets or host static websites.
• Application Bypass Static Deliveries - Bypasses the application runtime to deliver static files directly from the web server for improved performance.
• Application Platforms - Minimalist PaaS for git-push deployments.
