Options for Deployment

Deploy your Glueful application to production environments with confidence.

Deployment Options

• Production Setup - Server configuration and optimization
• Docker - Containerized deployment
• Zero Downtime - Deploy without service interruption

Quick Start

# Install dependencies
composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader --classmap-authoritative

# Run database migrations
php glueful migrate:run

# Start workers and scheduler
php glueful queue:work
php glueful queue:scheduler work

Note: Use a production web server (e.g., Nginx + PHP-FPM or Caddy). The serve command is for local development only.

Production Checklist

• Environment variables configured
• Database migrations run
• Dependencies optimized
• Queue workers running
• Scheduler configured
• Scheduler running (daemon or cron)
• Logs configured
• Backups automated
• Monitoring enabled
• SSL/TLS enabled
• Firewall configured
• Production audit run: php vendor/bin/glueful system:production --check
• DI container compiled (optional): php vendor/bin/glueful di:container:compile --optimize

Deployment Workflow

1. Build - Install dependencies and optimize
2. Test - Run test suite
3. Package - Create deployment artifact
4. Audit - Run system:production --check and address issues
5. Migrate - Update database schema
6. Deploy - Release new version
7. Monitor - Watch for issues

Infrastructure

Web Server

• Nginx + PHP-FPM (recommended)
• Caddy (simpler alternative)
• Apache + mod_php

Background Services

• Queue workers
• Task scheduler
• Cron jobs

Supporting Services

• Database (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite)
• Cache (Redis, Memcached)
• Storage (Local, S3, Azure, GCS)
