Dokploy Deployment

This skill enables you to manage and deploy applications to a Dokploy instance. Dokploy is an open-source PaaS (Platform as a Service) that simplifies deployment on your own VPS.

Prerequisites

Access to a Dokploy instance.
Dokploy CLI installed (
```
npm install -g dokploy
```
).
API Token (generated from Dokploy Dashboard > Settings > Profile).

How to Deploy

1. Using Dokploy CLI

If the CLI is available in the environment:

bash

# Login
dokploy login --host <your-dokploy-host> --token <your-token>

# Create a Project (if not exists)
dokploy project create --name <project-name>

# Create an Application
dokploy app create --name <app-name> --projectName <project-name>

# Deploy
dokploy app deploy --name <app-name> --projectName <project-name>

2. Manual Deployment via Dashboard

Navigate to your Dokploy host (e.g.,
```
http://vps-ip:3000
```
).
Create or select a Project.
Add a new Service > Application.
Connect your Git Repository (GitHub/GitLab) or use a Docker Image.
Configure Nixpacks or Dockerfile for the build.
Click Deploy.

Best Practices

Environment Variables: Always use the Dokploy dashboard or CLI to set secrets. Do not commit
```
.env
```
files.
Health Checks: Configure health checks in the Dokploy dashboard to ensure zero-downtime deployments.
Nixpacks: Prefers Nixpacks for automatic language detection and build optimization.

Triggering via API

You can trigger a deployment programmatically using a POST request to the Dokploy API:

text

POST https://<your-dokploy-host>/api/deployments/deploy
Authorization: Bearer <your-token>
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "applicationId": "<your-application-id>"
}
