🐳 Introducing Docker Manager: Deploy and Manage Docker Compose Projects on Your VPS

We're excited to announce the launch of Docker Manager, a powerful new feature that brings seamless Docker Compose project management directly to your VPS instances!

What is Docker Manager?

Docker Manager is an experimental API feature that allows you to programmatically deploy, manage, and monitor Docker Compose projects on your VPS instances. Whether you're deploying from GitHub repositories, remote URLs, or direct compose file contents, Docker Manager streamlines your container orchestration workflow.

Key Features

🚀 Flexible Deployment Options

• Deploy from GitHub repositories with a simple URL
• Use any publicly accessible docker-compose.yml URL
• Upload compose file contents directly via API
• Seamless integration with existing VPS infrastructure

🎛️ Complete Lifecycle Management

• Start/Stop/Restart projects with API calls
• Update running projects with new configurations
• Delete projects and clean up resources

📊 Comprehensive Monitoring

• Retrieve detailed container lists and statuses
• Access aggregated logs across all project containers
• Get project metadata and runtime information

Getting Started

Docker Manager is currently available for VPS instances using Docker OS templates. To start using this feature:

1. Ensure your VPS is running a Docker OS template
2. Access the Docker Manager endpoints through our API
3. Deploy your first project using a docker-compose.yml file or provide URL, containing docker-compose.y(a)ml

Important Notes

⚠️ Experimental Feature: Docker Manager is currently in experimental phase. Breaking changes may occur in future updates as we continue to refine and improve the functionality based on community feedback.

🔒 Multi-Tenant Safe: All operations are scoped to specific virtual machine, ensuring secure isolation for multi-tenant environments.

Use Cases

• Automated Deployments: Integrate with CI/CD pipelines for seamless application deployment
• Development Environments: Quickly spin up development stacks on demand
• Microservices Management: Orchestrate complex multi-container applications
• GitOps Workflows: Deploy directly from version-controlled compose files

What's Next?

We're actively working on expanding Docker Manager capabilities and would love to hear your feedback! As an experimental feature, your input will help shape its future development.
