A dokku plugin which allows you to create an app from a git url
- dokku 0.4.0+
# on 0.4.x
dokku plugin:install https://github.com/crisward/dokku-clone.git clone
# create or update and app from eg github
[email protected] clone yourapp https://github.com/you/yourproject.git
#eg
ssh [email protected] clone nodetest https://github.com/heroku/node-js-getting-started.git
# you'll then have the heroku sample app on nodetest.dokku.me (you may have to update your hosts file)
If you need to clone private repos, or just want to use git@ urls you'll need to add a deploy key to your git provider (ie github). If you want to be able to pull any repo from github, you'll have to add the key here Clone creates a fresh keypair when the plugin is first installed. The public part of the key can be accessed with.
# output with
ssh [email protected] clone:key
# save to clipboard with (mac only)
ssh [email protected] clone:key | pbcopy
# before cloning the repo, you'll need to add the remote to known hosts with
ssh [email protected] clone:allow github.com
If you would like to build your app from another branch or tag your can pass that in as a third parameter ie.
ssh [email protected] clone nodetest https://github.com/heroku/node-js-getting-started.git 2016
