Deploy from this page: TryDirect provisions the server, starts the services, generates the deployment credentials and wires the 3 containers together. Nothing is shared between deployments and no secrets ship with the stack.
What's included
| Service | Port | Description |
|---|---|---|
| app | 8536 (public) | dessalines/lemmy:0.19.11 |
| lemmy_db | 5432 (local only) | Database |
| lemmy_pictrs | 6969 (local only) | asonix/pictrs:latest |
What you configure
- Domain (
commonDomain): the hostname the stack is served on
All 6 credentials (passwords and keys) are generated per deployment and stored in your project's secret store.
Requirements
- A cloud account connected to TryDirect (the deploy form provisions
the server) or one of your own servers
- A server that fits 3 containers (2 GB RAM or more recommended)
- A DNS record for the domain you set in the deploy form
