Deploying from a Docker Image

You can deploy an app to Hostim.dev using any public or private Docker image. This is the fastest way to run an existing container without a build step.

Requirements

• A Docker image hosted on a registry like Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry
• The image must expose a default port (usually 80 or 3000)

How to deploy

1. Go to your Hostim.dev dashboard
2. Open your project and click Create Service -> New App.
3. Give your App a name
4. Choose Docker as in the Deployment Type field.
5. Enter the full image name, for example: nginx:latest.
6. (Optional) Provide username and password for private images.
7. Select number of replicas and a plan.
8. Click Create App.

Your app will start running within seconds.
