The Deis client is a Python CLI that issues API calls to a private Deis controller, providing a Heroku-inspired PaaS workflow.
Deis is an open source PaaS that makes it easy to deploy and scale LXC containers and Chef nodes used to host applications, databases, middleware and other services. Deis leverages Chef, Docker and Heroku Buildpacks to provide a private PaaS that is lightweight and flexible.
Deis comes with out-of-the-box support for Ruby, Python, Node.js, Java, Clojure, Scala, Play, PHP, Perl, Dart and Go. However, Deis can deploy anything using Heroku Buildpacks, Docker images or Chef recipes. Deis is designed to work with any cloud provider, although only EC2 is currently supported.
Deploy a wide range of languages and frameworks with a simple git push using Heroku Buildpacks or Dockerfiles. Use custom Chef layers to deploy databases, middleware and other add-on services.
Choose your hosting provider configuration. Define a formation with your own proxy and runtime layers. Retain full root access to every node. Manage your platform with a private Deis controller.
Scale nodes and containers with a single command. Node provisioning, container balancing and proxy reconfiguration are completely automated.
Free, transparent and easily customized. Join the open-source PaaS and DevOps community by using Deis and complimentary projects like Docker, Chef and Heroku Buildpacks.
Installing the Deis client from the Python Package Index is simple:
$ pip install deis
The client will automatically install the following dependencies:
