About

Sailor is a tiny PaaS to install on your servers/VPS (DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Linode).

It uses git push to deploy micro-apps, micro-services and sites.

It natively supports Python, Nodejs, Static sites, and any other languages that can use the command line.

Sites deployed with Sailor automatically have SSL assigned with LetsEncrypt.

Sailor can run long-running background workers and cron jobs.

It allows you to deploy multiple sites/apps using a single repository.

It gives you the option of having testing/staging/production environment deployed from the same codebase.

Sailor let's you see some stats about your apps, along with scaling them.

Sailor makes deploying apps a smooth sailing.

Ship it like a Sailor!

+ Getting Started

1. Server Requirements

  • Fresh server (highly recommended)
  • SSH to server with root access
  • Ubuntu 22.04

2. Install Sailor on the server

On the server, run the code below to setup the environment for Sailor and install all its dependencies. A new user, sailor, will be created and will be used to interact with SSH for Sailor.

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mardix/sailor/master/install.sh > install.sh
chmod 755 install.sh
./install.sh

3. Setup Git on local repo

On your local machine, point a Git remote to your Sailor server (set in step 2), with sailor as username.

Format: git remote add sailor sailor@$host:$app_name

With:

  • $host The server name or IP address
  • $app_name The name of the application, that is set in the sailor.yml (the manifest to deploy)

Example: git remote add sailor sailor@my-server-host.com:myappname.com

+ Getting work done!

1. Work on your app...

...go into your repo and do what you do best, like a sailor!

2. Edit Sailor.yml

At the root of your app directory, create sailor.yml (required).

# sailor.yml

---
apps:
    # ->  with remote: sailor@$host:myapp.com
  - name: myapp.com
    runtime: python
    process:
    
      web: 
        cmd: app:app
        server_name: myapp.com
        workers: 2
        
      cron: "0 0 * * * python backup.py"
      
      myownworker: python events-listener.py
3. Add Git Remote

Example: git remote add sailor sailor@$host:myapp.com

4. Deploy

Push your code: git push sailor master

5. Profit!

We did it, Okurrr!

+ Sailor Commands

Sailor communicates with your server via SSH, with the user name: sailor

You must already already have SSH access to the machine for it to work.

ie: ssh sailor@$host

List all commands
ssh sailor@$host
List all apps: ls
ssh sailor@$host ls

The command above will show the minimal info. To expand:

ssh sailor@$host ls x
Start app: start $app_name
ssh sailor@$host start $app_name
Stop app: stop $app_name
ssh sailor@$host stop $app_name
Remove app: rm $app_name

To completely delete the application

ssh sailor@$host rm $app_name

To force remove an app without prompt rm -f $app_name

ssh sailor@$host rm -f $app_name
Reload app: reload $app_name

To reload a running application

ssh sailor@$host reload $app_name
Show app info: info $app_name
ssh sailor@$host info $app_name
Show app log: log $app_name
ssh sailor@$host log $app_name
Reset SSL: reset-ssl $app_name

To re-issue the SSL

ssh sailor@$host reset-ssl $app_name
Scale app's workers

To increase/decrease the total workers for this process

ssh sailor@$host scale $app_name $proc=$count $proc2=$count2

Example:

ssh sailor@$host scale site.com web=4
Reload all apps: reload-all
ssh sailor@$host apps:reload-all
Stop all apps: stop-all
ssh sailor@$host apps:stop-all

-- Misc --

Show the version: x:version
ssh sailor@$host system:version
Update the system x:update

To update Sailor to the latest from Github

ssh sailor@$host system:update

Additionally, you can update from a specific branch, usually for testing purposes

ssh sailor@$host system:update $branch-name

About

Sailor is a utility to install on a host machine, that allows you to deploy multiple apps, micro-services, webites, run scripts and background workers on a single VPS (Digital Ocean, Linode, Hetzner).

Sailor follows a process similar to Heroku or Dokku where you Git push code to the host and Sailor will:

  • create an instance on the host machine
  • deploy the new code
  • create virtual environments for your application
  • get a free SSL from LetsEncrypt and assign it to your domain
  • execute scripts to be executed
  • put your application online
  • monitor the application
  • restart the application if it crashes

Sailor supports deployment for:

  • Python (Flask/Django)
  • Nodejs (Express)
  • PHP
  • HTML (React/Vuejs/Static).
  • any of shell scripts

Why Sailor?

Sailor is a simpler alternative to Docker containers or Dokku. It mainly deals with your application deployment, similar to Heroku.

Sailor takes away all the complexity of Docker Containers or Dokku and gives you something simpler to deploy your applications, similar to Heroku, along with SSL.

Languages Supported

  • Python
  • Nodejs
  • Static HTML
  • PHP
  • Any shell script

Using Sailor

Sailor supports a Heroku-like workflow, like so:

  • Create a git SSH remote pointing to your Sailor server with the app name as repo name. git remote add sailor sailor@[yourserver]:[appname].
  • Push your code: git push sailor master.
  • Sailor determines the runtime and installs the dependencies for your app (building whatever's required).
    • For Python, it installs and segregates each app's dependencies from requirements.txt into a virtualenv.
    • For Node, it installs whatever is in package.json into node_modules.
  • It then looks at sailor.yml and starts the relevant applications using a generic process manager.
  • You can optionally also specify a release worker which is run once when the app is deployed.
  • A static worker type, with the root path as the argument, can be used to deploy a gh-pages style static site.

sailor.yml

sailor.yml is a manifest format for describing apps. It declares environment variables, scripts, and other information required to run an app on your server. This document describes the schema in detail.

sailor.yml contains an array of all apps to be deploy, and they are identified by name.

When setting up the remote, the name must match the name in the sailor.yml

FAQ

How to deploy site with IP and PORT (without SERVER_NAME) ?

You can deploy a site without a server name.

The server IP will be used instead of a server name

You need to set the web.server_port to the desired port.

Beware the connection will not be behind NGINX nor use SSL.

This option is mainly for internal or IP based app.

# example sailor.yml

...
  process:
    web: 
      ...,

      #-- set server name to _
      server_name: _
      
      #-- set server port
      server_port: 8081

TODO

  • Allow multiple server name on same app with their own ssl
  • Auto scaling, up to a max workers
