buildplane
One-stop open-source cloud deployment tool
User story
What are some tools (open source or PaaS like Vercel) for a zero-config or interactive wizard method of deploying/Dockerizing almost any web app full-stack repository? At a minimum, run dev tasks in yarn/npm/etc since those are standardized. It should also be feasible to automatically detect not all but many common full-stack deployment configuration tasks. For example detect that the app server is expecting a MongoDB and spin one up using defaults or by scanning code/readme. Of course it won't succeed in every case, but 80% is good enough. The goal is to pick any recently-updated web app repository on Git Hub and get it fully up and running in minutes, ready to hack on.
What is BuildPlane?
I once worked on a little deployment script for generic pipelines. The goal of build-plane is to create an easy cloud deployment tool, taking off about 35% of solo developers, teams, and business ops pain of a rigorous deployment process.
Roadmap
- Support deployment to popular platforms; Vercel, Heroku, DigitalOcean, Render, Azure, and Amazon Web Services
- Utilize codesense to scan repositories for special configurations files and automatically determine build type
- Support GitHub and GitLab platforms
This is not an exhaustive roadmap - and very much an envisioned roadmap, call it version 1.0
