Usage

Nanocl is designed to be easy to operate by mostly using Statefiles.
Statefiles are yaml, toml or json files that define the state you want.
There is an example used to deploy our documentation:

ApiVersion: v0.16

# See all options:
# https://docs.next-hat.com/references/nanocl/objects/cargo
Cargoes:
- Name: doc
  Container:
    Image: ghcr.io/next-hat/documentation:0.16.0

# See all options:
# https://docs.next-hat.com/references/nanocl/objects/resource
Resources:
- Name: docs.next-hat.com
  Kind: ncproxy.io/rule

      Locations:
      - Path: /
        Target:

To apply a state you can do it easily bu running nanocl state apply -s path|url
You can also remove a state by calling nanocl state rm -s path|url

Architecture

Nanocl is designed in a micro services architecture several component are required and they are running as container included the Nanocl Daemon itself. The following components will be installed during nanocl install and are required to ensure Nanocl functionality:

• nstore to save our state
• ndaemon as REST API to manage everything
• nmetrics to monitor cpu, memory and network usage
• nproxy proxy to redirect traffic to our containers and virtual machines (optional)
• ncproxy to update proxy configuration based on the current state (optional)
• ndns to manage the dns entries for the containers and virtual machines (optional)
• ncdns to update dns entries based on the current state (optional)
