Deploy on Fly

Deploy command

From the monorepo root:

pnpm deploy:backend

Or from backend/:

pnpm fly:deploy

Configuration

• backend/fly.toml: app name, region, health checks, VM size
• backend/Dockerfile: Directus base image + extensions
• backend/start-with-migrate.sh: runs migrations on startup

Secrets

Set via Fly CLI:

fly secrets set KEY=value -a real-ireland-app

Required secrets include database password, storage credentials, and KEY/SECRET for Directus. Prefer Fly secrets over plain [env] in fly.toml for sensitive values.

Health check

Fly probes GET /server/health on port 8055.
