Standard::Procedure::Anvil

Some simple scripts for installing Dokku applications on Ubuntu servers.

I needed a tool to simplify the management of my many dokku-deployed Ruby on Rails apps.

Anvil requires Ruby 2.7 or newer, as it uses ConcurrentRuby to handle doing more than one thing at once.

gem install standard-procedure-anvil

Ultimately the plan is to use Fog to handle building servers.

But until then, you can prepare your servers using CloudInit

Generating a cloudinit file with anvil cloudinit generate

Use the anvil app install and anvil app deploy commands to install and deploy your app to your server.

Use anvil app scale and anvil app reconfigure to manage and reconfigure your app. (Docs coming soon)

I'm a Rails developer and I built anvil to help me with my Rails apps. Here are some things I learnt along the way.
