Jig — Dead simple deployment tool

noun

  a device that holds a piece of work and guides the tool operating on it.

Installation

Installation is in two steps:

1. Server setup: Run a startup script on the server to pull all relevant images and take off
2. Client setup: Download a client and get authentication ready

Server setup

Docker is a prerequisite, so ensure docker is available and running on your server

wget -q https://deploywithjig.askh.at/install.sh && bash install.sh && rm install.sh

This will load traefik, jig, ask you for an email, jwt signing key, launch everything and spit out a command to run on your machine to login

Login command will look something like jig login loooooong+code keep it for later

Client setup

Any node package manager is a prerequisite

npm install -g jig-client

Plug in your login command you got in previous steps with

jig login <loooooong+code>

Then initiate a project and create a config in your project directory with

jig init

It will try to figure out what kind of project you're running and add a pre-made Dockerfile for your convenience, but you can create one yourself

After that plug in the jig login ... command you received server side and you should be ready to go with

jig deploy

• [] Manage multiple servers 🌿
• [] Check docker container resource consumption 💸
• [] Fetch container logs (forgor to implement 💀), maybe attahcing to the container even 🤔
• [] Deployment rollbacks?
• [] DNS management (? maybe)
