So flynn.io is awesome, only some basic automatisation tasks are missing. At least for me.
- Automated backups to s3
- Ssl with automated renewal (wip)
What this app does is just that, it uses a webinterface to manage our backup periods and apps. And it uses the flynncli to get all of the data from your cluster.
- clone repo and create flynn app
flynn create flynn-backup - push to your cluster
git push flynn master - add postgress
flynn resource add postgres - add missing env variables (the PG variables are already fixed by Flynn)
- migrate your db
flynn run bin/rails db:migrate db:seed - open up your brower to your flynn url and login with
admin@example.com/password(you can change this when your logged in)
- https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-ruby.git, lets let rails do its thing
- https://github.com/reneweteling/flynncli-buildpack.git, install the flynn cli in the container
