William Carroll 4e0b18506f Rename docker -> deploy
I think the name deploy is more representative of the purpose of this directory
since docker is just one of a few tools that I'm using to deploy software.

Deployments

I'm documenting how I currently deploy things.

I'd like to automate this workflow as much as possible, and I intend to do just that. For now, I'm running things manually until I can design an generalization that appeals to me.

Dependencies

  • nix-build
  • docker
  • gcloud

Step-by-step

  1. Use nix-build to create our Docker image for Cloud Run.
> nix-build ./cloud_run.nix

This outputs a Docker image at ./result.

  1. Load the built image (i.e. ./result) into docker so that we can tag it and push it to the Google Container Registry (i.e. GCR).
> sudo docker load <./result
  1. (Optionally) Run the image locally to verify its integrity.
> sudo docker run -d -p 8080:4242 <name>:<tag>
  1. Tag and push the image to GCR.
> sudo docker tag <name>:<label> gcr.io/<google-cloud-project-id>/<name>:<latest>

TODO: Prefer using a command line tool like gcloud for these steps.

  1. Visit Google Cloud Run; create a new service with "Create Service"; select the uploaded Docker image from the "Container Image URL" field; click "Create" to deploy.

Notes

You may need to authorize gcloud by running the following:

> sudo gcloud auth login --no-launch-browser

You must use sudo here since the docker invocations are prefixed with sudo as well.
