Deploying to Fly.io (Free)
The easiest way to deploy your own instance of SerpBear online is to use Fly.io . Follow the steps bellow to install the app locally, build it and then deploy it to fly.io
Step 1:
Step 2:
git clone [email protected]:towfiqi/serpbear.git
cd serpbear
Step 3:
Then Create your Fly.io app by running this command. Replace
johndoeserp
with an app name that is unique in fly.io Note that this unique name will be used to create your app domain. eg: https://johndoeserp.fly.devfly launch --name johndoeserp --region lax
Step 4:
Since Fly.io containers data is not persistent, you will have to save the database file in a fly.io volume and then connect that volume to your app. So First Create a volume in your Fly account.
fly volumes create serpbear_data --size 1 --region lax
Step 5:
Open the newly created
fly.toml
file in your serpbear directory and add this to the very bottom to connect the newly created volume to your app. [mounts]
source="serpbear_data"
destination="/app/data"
Step 6:
From the same fly.toml file, replace
internal_port = 8080
with internal_port = 3000
Step 7:
You will also need to set the secret Environment variables for your Fly.io app instance. From the following command, replace
johndoeserp
with the app name you set in step 4. And then run the command:fly secrets set --app johndoeserp USER=admin PASSWORD=999999 NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL=https://johndoeserp.fly.dev/ SESSION_DURATION=24 APIKEY=5saedXklbylhnatihe2pihp3pih4fdnakljwq9 SECRET=4715aed3216f7b0a38e6b234a958362654e56d10fbc04700770d472af3dce43625jd
Step 8:
Finally Deploy the app to fly.io with the following command:
fly deploy
When there is a new release, you can simply run this commands to update the app & re-deploy it:
git pull
fly deploy
