Docker & Compose

Ship a container image or a Compose definition from the New Deployment modal.

Docker image

  1. Open New Deployment → Docker.
  2. Paste a full image reference, for example ghcr.io/acme/api:latest or docker.io/library/nginx:alpine.
  3. Set name, environment, and env vars as needed.
  4. Deploy and wait for status active.

The image must be pullable by Renboot (public registry or credentials configured where supported). Expose the port your process listens on via your image defaults or env.

Docker Compose

  1. Open New Deployment → Compose.
  2. Paste your compose YAML into the editor.
  3. Add env vars that your services expect.
  4. Deploy and monitor status on the detail page.
# Example image-style reference
ghcr.io/your-org/your-app:1.2.3

When to use which

  • Docker — Single service, already built image in a registry.
  • Compose — Multi-service stacks defined in YAML.
  • Prefer GitHub when you want Renboot to build from source on each push.
