Deploy Contember project to Contember Cloud

This tutorial will guide you through the process of deploying the Contember from local machine to the Contember Cloud. (Tutorial won't work for self-hosted Contember without an admin server. The admin server is under an Enterprise license, contact us for more information).

1. Make sure you have correctly set project name​

Your project needs to have the same name locally and in the Contember Cloud. In particular, there are 2 places where you need to set it up:

  1. In docker-compose.yml set the CONTEMBER_PROJECT_NAME to your project slug
  2. In .env.production set the VITE_CONTEMBER_ADMIN_PROJECT_NAME to your project slug

2. Production build admin​

Run build script inside your project folder:

npm run build-admin

3. Deploy your project​

Now you can deploy your project using the Contember CLI. You'll need deploy token (you get one when creating a project in the Contember Cloud administration).

docker-compose run -e CONTEMBER_API_TOKEN={{deploy_token}} contember-cli deploy {{your_project_name}} --admin {{your_project_admin_url}} --instance {{your_project_api_url}}

CLI will deploy your admin and apply all your new migrations. That's it.
