Development, deployment, and run-time programming of stand-alone services from Lively4.

Deploy Deploy to Bluemix

How to use

  1. Deploy your own lively4-services instance (e.g. on Heroku).
  2. Open the Services tool in Lively4. It should ask you to provide your instance's URL (e.g. https://my-instance.herokuapp.com/) if you have not used the tool before. This will also mount the instance's services repository to /services.
  3. You can now use the fork icon to clone a project from GitHub and you can develop your services using the code icon.
  4. Finally, deploy a service by clicking on the plus icon and by selecting your service's entry point.

In order to debug a service, click the bug icon. For switching to a different instance, click on the cog icon.

Port forwarding

lively4-services has builtin port forwarding capabilities with support for http,https, ws, and wss. This allows you to access your running services through a single port, the same one that the Services tool uses to communicate with lively4-services' API. Here is how to use it:

https://my-instance.herokuapp.com/port/<LocalPortOfYourService>/
