Drycc workflow requires a wildcard DNS record to dynamically map app names to the router.
User should already have DNS set up pointing to their known host. The $hostname
value can be calculated by prepending drycc.
to the value set in global.platformDomain
.
Workflow use the passport component to create and authorize users.
If you already have an account, use drycc login
to authenticate against the Drycc Workflow API.
$ drycc login http://drycc.example.com
Opening browser to http://drycc.example.com/v2/login/drycc/?key=4ccc81ee2dce4349ad5261ceffe72c71
Waiting for login... .o.Logged in as admin
Configuration file written to /root/.drycc/client.json
Drycc Workflow supports three different types of applications, Buildpacks, Dockerfiles and Container Images. Our first application will be a simple Container Image-based application, so you don't have to wrestle with checking out code.
Run drycc create
to create a new application on Drycc Workflow. If you do not
specify a name for your application, Workflow automatically generates a
friendly (and sometimes funny) name.
$ drycc create --no-remote
Creating Application... done, created proper-barbecue
If you want to add a git remote for this app later, use `drycc git:remote -a proper-barbecue`
Our application has been created and named proper-barbecue
. As with the
drycc
hostname, any HTTP traffic to proper-barbecue
will be automatically
routed to your application pods by the edge router.
Let's use the CLI to tell the platform to deploy an application and then use curl to send a request to the app:
$ drycc pull drycc/example-go -a proper-barbecue
Creating build... done
$ curl http://proper-barbecue.$hostname
Powered by Drycc
Note
If you see a 404 error, make sure you specified your application name with -a <appname>
!
Workflow's edge router knows all about application names and automatically
sends traffic to the right application. The router sends traffic for
proper-barbecue.104.197.125.75.nip.io
to your app, just like
drycc.104.197.125.75.nip.io
was sent to the Workflow API service.
Next, let's change some configuration using the CLI. Our example app is built
to read configuration from the environment. By using drycc config:set
we can
change how the application behaves:
$ drycc config:set POWERED_BY="Container Images + Kubernetes" -a proper-barbecue
Creating config... done
=== proper-barbecue Config
POWERED_BY Container Images + Kubernetes
Behind the scenes, Workflow creates a new release for your application and uses Kubernetes to provide a zero-downtime rolling deploy to the new release!
Validate that our configuration change has worked:
$ curl http://proper-barbecue.104.197.125.75.nip.io
Powered by Container Images + Kubernetes
Last, let's scale our application by adding more application processes. Using the CLI you can easily add and remove additional processes to service requests:
$ drycc scale cmd=2 -a proper-barbecue
Scaling processes... but first, coffee!
done in 36s
=== proper-barbecue Processes
--- cmd (started): 2
proper-barbecue-v18-cmd-rk644 up (v18)
proper-barbecue-v18-cmd-0ag04 up (v18)
Congratulations! You have deployed, configured, and scaled your first application using Drycc Workflow.
There is a lot more you can do with Drycc Workflow, play around with the CLI:

In order to have permission to push an app you must add a SSH key to your user on the Drycc Workflow. For more information, please check Users and SSH Keys and Troubleshooting Workflow.
