Deploy Template

⚠️ Prerequisite: Ensure you have Git installed.

Using the Deploy Code tool in the Aptible Dashboard, you can deploy the Ruby on Rails Template. The tool will guide you through the following:

Step 01: Deploy with Git Push

Step 02: Add an SSH key

If you have not done so already, you will be prompted to set up an SSH key.

Step 03: Environment Setup

Select your stack to deploy your resources. This will determine what region your resources are deployed to. Then, name the environment your resources will be grouped into.

Step 04: Prepare the template

Select Ruby on Rails Template for deployment, and follow command-line instructions.

Step 05: Fill environment variables and deploy!

Aptible will automatically fill this template's required databases, services, and app's configuration with environment variable keys for you to fill with values. Once complete, save and deploy the code!

Step 06: View logs in real time

Step 07: Expose your app to the internet

Now that your code is deployed, it's time to expose your app to the internet. Select the service that needs an endpoint, and Aptible will automatically provision a managed endpoint.

Step 08: View your deployed app 🎉
