Deploying to fly.io scaling in High-Availability

I'm currently deploying an instance of rsslay into fly.io, so I made it simple to everyone to deploy to there.

The requisites are the following:

  • An account in fly.io.
  • An app instance previously created.
  • A volume to handle the database files between deployments, restarts and others.
  • (Optional) a custom domain of our own that we can set a CNAME record to and avoid using the default domain.
  • (Optional) a Redis by Upstash instance for high-availability cache and improved performance.

Setting up the app

  1. Download the flyctl CLI.
  2. Login into your account with flyctl auth login.
  3. Modify the file fly.toml replacing the property app with your app name.
  4. Create a new volume for your app with flyctl volumes create rsslay_data (the name rsslay_data can be changed).
  5. Modify the file fly.toml and set the section [mounts] accordingly (the source property with the volume name and keep destination as it is due to LiteFS usage).
  6. Create a secret with flyctl secrets set SECRET=YOUR_LONG_STRING_HERE, in order to establish the SECRET environment variable to create private keys with.
  7. Proceed with the automatic deployment with flyctl launch
  8. Optional: set up a CNAME record and set a certificate for the app.
  9. Optional: set up a workflow in GitHub to automatically deploy your app like in this repo.

You are done! And you can scale your app simply following this steps! If you scale, consider deploying a Redis by Upstash instance for high-availability cache and improved performance.
