Run It Anywhere

Docker Compose

docker-compose up

# Optional: Generate an api key
# docker-compose exec -it app cli --create-user=Admin

Docker CLI

docker run \
    --name bit \
    -p 4000:4000 \
    -e ENV="production" \
    -e DATABASE_URL="sqlite3://./sqlite/data.db" \
    -e APP_URL="http://localhost:4000" \
    -e ADMIN_NAME="Admin" \
    -e ADMIN_API_KEY=$(openssl rand -base64 32) \
    sjdonado/bit

# Create a new user
# docker exec -it bit cli --create-user=Admin

Dokku

FROM sjdonado/bit

dokku apps:create bit

dokku domains:set bit bit.donado.co

dokku storage:ensure-directory bit-sqlite
dokku storage:mount bit /var/lib/dokku/data/storage/bit-sqlite:/usr/src/app/sqlite/

# Create a new user
# dokku run bit cli --create-user=Admin

Dokku (same network)

Recommended for lower latency communication (no host network traversal)

  dokku network:create bit-net
  dokku network:set bit attach-post-create bit-net
  dokku network:set myapp attach-post-create bit-net

Summary

• Reqs/sec (average central tendency): (1328.47 + 1357.19 + 1407.03) / 3 + (1785.03 + 1789.06 + 1778.84) / 3 = 3148.54 reqs/sec
• Latency (average central tendency): (76.19 + 74.68 + 71.85) / 3 - (29.43 + 14.50 + 9.42) / 3 = 56.4ms
• Latency (for conservative capacity planning): (76.19 + 74.68 + 71.85) / 3 + (29.43 + 14.50 + 9.42) / 3 = 89.63ms
• Best single run: 18041.44 reqs/sec
