Introduction

Complete this tutorial to deploy a sample Shiori app via Staas.io without any additional tool/knowledge.

Requirements:

• A verified Staas.io account.

Creating your first Stack with Staas.io

Shiori is a simple bookmarks manager written in the Go language. Intended as a simple clone of Pocket. You can use it as a command line application or as a web application. This application is distributed as a single binary, which means it can be installed and used easily.

Instance Creation

Staas.io gives you more controls with the instance you run your app on.

Go to your Staas.io Dashboard

Click on “Create new stack +”. From this screen, you can select your stack of choice including Programming Languages, Databases and Applications. In this tutorial, we’ll select Shiori.

In the Create Stack page, configure your stack:

• Stack name: This is your stack name. It is also the name of your web domain once the stack is created.
• Owner: Set it as a private or a shared stack so that your team can contribute and maintain.
• Type: This is The stack type. It is the same as the previous page. In this case, Shiori is already selected.
• Version: Select a Shiori’s version. Let’s select Shiori latest for our example.
• Packages: This is your instance type. Choose your desired hardware’s capability. The options are limited to your Pricing plan.
• Region: Choose a region to deploy your stack. The app should be deployed closest to your target customers.

Press Create and your stack will be created momentarily. An email will be sent to you once it is created and ready to run.

Manage your Stack in the Dashboard

Once you created the stack, you will be greeted with a Stack Management screen.

Checking out your new domain by clicking on Domain button. It will open up your designated domain in a new tab.
