Deploying on Fly.io ​

Live URL

Repository

Let's setup a simple web server on fly.io using Docker.

Setup Fly.io ​

  1. Create a fly.io account
  2. Make sure the flyctl CLI tool is installed

INFO

Check out the fly.io Docs for more information

Setup web server ​

Now setup a new HTTP web server using:

bash
pnpm create svarta-app
pnpm create svarta-app
bash
yarn create svarta-app
yarn create svarta-app
bash
npm create svarta-app
npm create svarta-app

And follow the in-terminal instructions. Select the starter-http template.

The template comes with a Dockerfile, so we're almost ready to go. Just one thing:

In svarta.config.mjs change defaultPort to 8080 (the default for fly.io). Else, you could change the port by using the PORT or SVARTA_PORT environment variables.

Create Fly.io app ​

bash
flyctl launch
flyctl launch

flyctl will detect the Dockerfile. Go through the setup and then deploy using:

Deploy to Fly.io ​

bash
flyctl deploy
flyctl deploy

Wait for the docker image to deploy, then your API will be deployed on [app-name].fly.dev.

Continuous deployment ​

GitHub Actions ​

  1. Create a access token at https://fly.io/user/personal_access_tokens
  2. Set a FLY_API_TOKEN secret in the GitHub repository settings
  3. Create the following workflow file (change branches as needed)
yaml
name: Deploy to Fly

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main

env:
  FLY_API_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.FLY_API_TOKEN }}
jobs:
  deploy:
    name: Deploy app
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: superfly/flyctl-actions/setup-flyctl@master
      - run: flyctl deploy --remote-only
