This is very interesting! Is it a Dokku alternative? I wrote a similar thing yesterday: https://gitlab.com/stavros/harbormaster https://gitlab.com/stavros/har

Mine is basically Balena, though, so it lets you deploy a bunch of Compose repos and doesn't handle ingress. Maybe I could switch to Piku instead.
EDIT: Ah yeah, it looks like Piku is geared towards web servers and handles ingress, mine is more geared towards consumer stuff and doesn't handle ingress itself.
- rcarmo 6y agoYou don’t really need to do web services on it. I have lots of batch/cron-like stuff on my deployments...
- StavrosK 6y agoYou don't need to, but (Dokku, at least) has a lot of ingress setup and Procfiles and things that you need to add, and you pay that cost for nothing if you don't use it. The other thing that makes Dokku unsuitable for non-web things for me is that it's explicitly geared towards the web setup, with ingress/web server/database, and you can't easily add arbitrary services and link them to your container. I remember having to do quite a bit of hackery to deploy one server for the backend and one for the frontend on the same domain.
- rcarmo 6y agoOh, I only add stuff that isn’t overly complicated. The ingress with nginx, for instance, is the simplest thing that could possibly work...
