About

ShipBuilder is a git-based application deployment and serving system written in Go.

Primary components:

• ShipBuilder command-line client
• ShipBuilder server
• Container management (LXC)
• HTTP load balancer (HAProxy)

Build Packs

Any app server can run on ShipBuilder, but it will need a build-pack! The current build-packs are:

• python - Any python app
• nodejs - Node.js apps
• scala-sbt - Scala SBT applications and projects
• playframework2 - Play-framework 2.1.x

Requirements:

• Ubuntu 13.10, 13.04, or 12.04 (tested and verified compatible)
• go-lang v1.2 or v1.1
• envdir (linux: apt-get install daemontools, os-x: brew install daemontools)
• git and bzr clients
• Amazon AWS credentials + an s3 bucket

Creating your first app

All applications need a Procfile. In ShipBuilder, these are 100% compatible with Heroku's Procfiles (documentation).
