Coöp Cloud (working title; abbreviated CoCl) is a container-based, platform-agnostic, free software registry for small service providers.
|
|
|
|
- Production-ready apps in minutes: Wordpress & Nextcloud instances,
|
|
mail-servers, and more.
|
|
- Simple Docker-based framework for continuous deployment of your custom apps.

!!! warning "A note about ARM"
|
|
Not all applications currently support all ARM computers (like PINE64 and
|
|
Raspberry Pi): e.g. [Traefik will work on ARMv6 & ARM64][traefik], [the
|
|
official MariaDB app doesn't work on any ARM boards][mariadb]. It might be possible
|
|
to use third-party ARM images with separate `compose.yml` files, but we
|
|
haven't exlplored this rabbit-hole much yet.
|
|
|
|
## Definitions
|
|
|
|
CoCl is a **philosophy**.
|
|
|
|
- To get started, you create a **server**, e.g. a new VPS, including
|
|
your local configuration to connect to it...
|
|
- then you install an **app** like wordpress or nextcloud, which is made up of multiple **services**...
|
|
- .. and configure your app.
|
|
|
|
## Technical description
|
|
|
|
Software-wise, CoöpCloud is:
|
|
|
|
- [`coop-cloud`](https://git.autonomic.zone/coop-cloud/), a collection of Docker "swarm mode" configurations for popular web apps
|
|
- [`abra`](https://git.autonomic.zone/autonomic-cooperative/abra), a simple tool for Docker swarm management
|
|
- a recommended default set of stacks:
|
|
- Traefik for SSL & routing
|
|
- `postfix-relay` for outgoing email
|
|
|
|
## Principles / features:
|
|
|
|
- Security by default
|
|
- Secret storage using `docker secret` (["What makes it secure?"](https://github.com/BretFisher/ama/issues/86))
|
|
- Automatic SSL using Traefik & LetsEncrypt
|
|
- Zero-downtime deployments (for apps with healthchecks defined)
|
|
- Continuous integration testing using Drone and our [`stack-ssh-deploy`](https://git.autonomic.zone/coop-cloud/stack-ssh-deploy) plugin
|
|
- Low maintenance overhead:
|
|
- Automatic tracking of upstream Docker images using `renovate-bot`
|
|
- Avoiding custom Docker images as far as possible
