Apps


Creating an App

Once setup, the initial page you see is the Dashboard. From here you can create apps and services, or view any existing ones. After you have chosen a valid name for your app, you will proceed to setup. Currently apps can be setup in three different ways:

Create New Git Repo

This option creates a git repo on the host, and sets a branch to deploy from. Once configured, you will need to add the remote to your local git repo, and push to deploy following these instructions.

Sync Existing Git Repo

This option configures a remote repository to clone using a specific git ref (eg the main branch, or a specific commit), which can then be automatically built and deployed. See the Dokku docs on this method here.
If the repo is private, ensure you have configured access in the Settings page.

Docker Image

This option enables pulling a Docker image. See the Dokku docs for caveats here.
If the image is held in a private registry, ensure you have configured access in the Settings page.
