Deploy an app
Let’s deploy a simple app. You always deploy an app on a NuvlaEdge or in the cloud. We’ll assume here that you want to deploy an app at the edge.
For this, you need access to a NuvlaEdge. If you don’t have one available yet, you can create a new NuvlaEdge here.
Make sure you have at least one online NuvlaEdge. You can do that on the Edges page by looking for an online NuvlaEdge.
So, let’s deploy a Nuvla App into your NuvlaEdge:
-
login into Nuvla and go to the All Apps tab of the Apps page
-
find your desired application (let’s say Nginx for example)
-
select a NuvlaEdge to deploy this app to. Notice that Nuvla will automatically check the availability of the NuvlaEdge and that you have the right credentials
-
If the app has an End-User License Agreement (EULA), read it and if you accept it, tick the accept box
-
if applicable, define any environment variables, configuration files and/or other runtime parameters that might be required by your app (this NGINX example application doesn’t)
-
and if the app is a paying app, you will also have to accept the fees (this Nginx example application doesn’t)
-
click
deploy
, and you’ll be redirected to the page of the new deployment, where you can follow the state of your deployment, and interact with it.
