  1. …pay for a docker registry. [0] https://kamal-deploy.org/docs/configuration/docker-registry/... [1] https://github.com/basecamp/kamal/blob/eee0083b38661c3707c6b...
  2. I think it'd be a perfect fit. We'll see what happens: https://github.com/basecamp/kamal/issues/1588
  3. …on its own. There’s some more explanation on why they decided to switch away from Traefik: https://github.com/basecamp/kamal/pull/940
  4. …version. There are some context about why they switched and decided to roll their own, from the PR. https://github.com/basecamp/kamal/pull/940
  5. Also exciting that Kamal 2 (currently RC https://github.com/basecamp/kamal/releases ) will support auto-SSL and make it easy to run multiple apps on one server with Kamal.
  6. …a side project. Seems to be similar in spirit. Has anybody used it, and if so, what do you think? https://github.com/basecamp/kamal
  7. I love the minimal approach - will try it! There is also: https://kamal-deploy.org/ https://github.com/basecamp/kamal https://dokku.com/ https://github.com/dokku/dokku/ https://clace.io/ https://github.com/claceio/clace
  8. For homelab, Docker compose should be enough For something more production oriented https://github.com/basecamp/kamal

  9. well, at least they had the courtesy of using "-f" in their curl-to-sh https://github.com/basecamp/kamal/blob/v1.0.0/lib/kamal/comm...
  10. Honestly these days I am leaning towards this approach: https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk/ It's all just docker.
  11. …it could even be running SQLite, and query via a web UI. Doesn't seem to exist for this scale. [1] https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk [2] https://k3s.io/ [3] https://dokku.com/

  12. …you can provide the cmd in the mrsk config. You can see this in the jobs role in the example: https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk#using-different-roles-for-ser... .

  13. > When you look at the issues: https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk/issues/44 Wow. That’s uh, that’s certainly a decision. > They're the same service, because they're running the same image If something purports to “run my containers” and “be an…

  14. …of the app. Prune unused images and stopped containers to ensure servers don't fill up. --- 1. https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk#readme

  15. something to note DHH is a beast. MSRK seems most of MSRK was written by him alone - https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk/commits/main?after=83dc82661b... his output is crazy. that's why he gets the big bucks

  16. …so build our own looks really bad from an engineering perspective. When you look at the issues: https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk/issues/44 you can some see trivial shortcoming that has been solved for years by other solutions.

  17. …37Signals is using it at scale yet, so you may get a better idea by looking at the docs yourself. https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk
  18. …to hold requests while the new application container is started and the old one is stopped.” https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk I’m looking forward testing this out. I already use Traefik and back in the day I used to use Capistrano to deploy…

  19. This is mrsk: https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk It is described as "Capistrano for containers" (This is DHH/37signals so we are in the ruby world) Mrsk is written in ruby and it is hard to type because autocorrect will change it to the name…
  20. Repo on Github: https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk
  21. …for next steps, such as deploy/management? And if you’ve seen it, what do you you think of https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk ?
    comment by sho · 2023-02-26 · in Awesome Docker Compose Examples
  22. Interestingly, it looks like DHH is working on something similar (for Rails): https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk > MRSK deploys web apps in containers to servers running Docker with zero downtime. It uses the dynamic reverse-proxy Traefik to…
  23. …and also this project he's working on, this will make things a lot nicer and more polished: https://github.com/rails/mrsk
