I deployed PocketBase the WRONG WAY | Code along

Let's set up PocketBase on fly.io using Docker and the flyctl cli!

Duuude! Loving this new setup!

[@chantastic]

Thanks! Maybe time for a little studio tour. I'd love to get some stuff in the background but it's a small space. I'll have to hang stuff from the ceiling 😄

[@KentCDodds-vids]

You uploaded your entire user directory to fly 🤣😂 😭 I really loled here. Amazing. Love you bro.

[@chantastic]

hahahaha! making the big mistakes so others don't 😅😅😅

[@DrewLytle]

The most realistic code along 😂

How can i move frrom flyio to a real vps when the time comes?

[@chantastic]

great question! i haven't done it but this stack overflow article looks helpful stackoverflow.com/a/12275914

[@hakuna_matata_hakuna]

Sticking it in a regular VM if you have one is much easier

[@chantastic]

that's a good call. i may try that next. there did feel like a lot of extra layers here (for my simple one-user) needs

[@archiebunker917]

I wish there were a tutorial for pocketbase installation on an own online server (e.g. at Hetzner)

[@qwoolrat]

not really any need to do that, it's as simple launching the binary. or making a dockerfile, which doesn't really make sense since it can't be scaled on many machines and it has state, but still an option

[@comedyclub333]

​@@qwoolrat It makes sense to containerize it. Containerization is not only beneficial for scaling, but also for granular control over which services you want to expose, for isolation, for portability and for managing dependencies. So it makes perfect sense to use Pocketbase with docker.

[@qwoolrat]

@@comedyclub333 did you read any word from what i said except "containerisation" and did you read up on how it works

[@qwoolrat]

@@comedyclub333 what dependencies are you even talking about dude

[@qwoolrat]

@@comedyclub333 theres no horizontal scaling too
