Before using Cloud Foundry, you need to create a user. To create a user, run the following command:
$ cf create-user <username> <password>
To connect to Cloud Foundry, run the following command:
$ cf login -u <username> -p <password> -a https://api.<your-organization>.com
Replace <username>, <password> and <your-organization> with actual values.
To create an application in Cloud Foundry, you need to define a manifest file. Here is an example:
---
applications:
- name: my-app
memory: 512M
disk_quota: 1G
routes:
- route: my-app.example.com
Save the above code in a file named manifest.yml. To create the application, run the following command:
$ cf push my-app -f manifest.yml
Replace my-app with the name of your application.
To access your application on the web, run the following command:
$ cf open my-app
Replace my-app with the name of your application.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and deployed an application on Cloud Foundry running on Fedora CoreOS.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
