-weight: 500;">docker -weight: 500;">service ps hello-world_app - An Ubuntu 24.04 LTS server (minimum 2 GB RAM for testing)
- SSH access with configured keys
- A domain or subdomain (optional but recommended for HTTPS)
- Basic terminal and Docker knowledge - Choose a cloud or VPS provider that offers Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Select a plan with at least 2 GB of RAM for testing
- Configure SSH key access instead of password (more secure)
- Consider enabling backups and monitoring for production
- Note the public IP of your server - 22/TCP from your IP or trusted range (SSH)
- 80/TCP from Anywhere (HTTP)
- 443/TCP from Anywhere (HTTPS)
- 443/UDP from Anywhere (HTTPS UDP)
- 3000/TCP temporarily from your IP only (for initial setup) - Installs Docker if not present
- Initializes Docker Swarm
- Creates the overlay network dokploy-network
- Deploys Postgres, Redis, and Dokploy services
- Launches Traefik as reverse proxy
- Publishes the panel on port 3000 - In your DNS provider's panel (Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, AWS Route53, etc.), add your domain if you haven't already.
- Create DNS records: A record for @ pointing to your server IP A record for www pointing to your server IP
Or a subdomain like dokploy.yourdomain.com
- A record for @ pointing to your server IP
- A record for www pointing to your server IP
- Or a subdomain like dokploy.yourdomain.com - A record for @ pointing to your server IP
- A record for www pointing to your server IP
- Or a subdomain like dokploy.yourdomain.com - In your cloud provider's firewall, limit it to your IP only if you need administrative access - In the Dokploy panel, click Create Project
- Give your project a name (e.g., "Tests")
- In the project panel, click Create Service and select Application
- Name your application: Hello World
- Then access your application and in the bottom section Build Type select Dockerfile and then Save.
- In the top section you have Provider. For this test we'll select the Drop type, however for real cases the best option is through -weight: 500;">git repository.
- Once Drop is selected, drag to the Zip file area the zip with the code we specified in point 7.1.
- Click the Deploy button
- Once deployment is complete, it will show the Deployments tab where you should see a green dot and Done indicating the process was successful. You can click View to verify the process.
- Now, to deploy our Hello World, go to the Domains tab.
- For this test we'll use a free Traefik domain by clicking on the dice icon, specify that the Container Port is 3000 and -weight: 500;">enable HTTPS with Let's Encrypt provider.
- Then click the Create button
- When finished, it will give us a URL where we can enter and see our web. Important: since we're using a test domain it will give security warnings. For production environments use your own domain. - Configure regular server backups (if your provider offers this feature)
- Configure regular database backups
- Use -weight: 500;">docker volume for persistent data - Official Dokploy Documentation
