❄️ Self-hosted now deployments

Enjoy effortless deployments with a clone of now on a cloud of your choosing.

Features

• ⚡️ Deploy docker images via snow (or snow deploy)
• 🔒 Auto-configured SSL
• 🔃 Auto-scaling

This is Magic 🔮

No, it isn't. This CLI abstracts away the complexities of using Kubernetes, cert-manager, Kaniko, and a private Docker Registry together, replicating the functionality provided by now.

Getting started

> npm i -g @snowjs/cli

# Install CLI tools
> snow install

# Create your kubernetes cluster (GCP)
> snow create

# Get your deployment's IP address
# And create a DNS 'A' record (e.g., myapp.com A 1.2.3.4)
> snow ip

# Deploy
> snow

The essential CLI commands to understand are snow create and snow deploy.

Dependencies

The following CLI tools (installable via snow install) are necessary to orchestrate the entire end-to-end process, from Kubernetes cluster creation to managing your deployments:

• kubectl (for managing deployments, secrets)
• helm (for installing [tiller], cert-manager, and ingress-nginx on your cluster)
• CLI tool for your cloud provider (e.g., gcloud).

If running Kubernetes locally on Minikube, you will additionally need these cli tools:

• docker (for running local registry)
• minikube (for running Kubernetes locally)
• virtualbox (for creating docker images)
