This is a quick post to show you how to deploy with Fly.io

Follow the Phoenix Deploying on Fly.io guide to deploy the project. https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/fly.html Install Fly.io Command line https://fly.io/docs/flyctl/install/

fly auth signup to signup for your account and make your shell know who you are

fly launch to start the first deployment you should see something like: ? Choose an app name (leave blank to generate one): replace-this-with-your-app-name ? Choose a region for deployment: pick-the-default-or-select-your-region ? Would you like to set up a Postgresql database now? Yes ? Select configuration: Development - Single node, 1x shared CPU, 256MB RAM, 1GB disk ? Scale single node pg to zero after one hour? Yes ? Would you like to set up an Upstash Redis database now? No ? Would you like to deploy now? Yes

Once this is done the current version of your code is deployed. If you want to use a specific branch only and update it when ever that branch gets a pull request follow the next steps.

fly auth token to get a token for deployment, be sure to head to the setting section of the github page for your repository. Then head to secrets and variables. Then actions. Then add a Repository Secret with the name FLY_API_TOKEN

Then you can create .github/workflows/continuous-deployment.yml file with the following content. Notice this uses the secret token you just configured.

name: Fly Deploy on: push:

branches:
  - main

env: FLY_API_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.FLY_API_TOKEN }} jobs: deploy:

  name: Deploy app
  runs-on: ubuntu-latest
  steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v3
    - uses: superfly/flyctl-actions/setup-flyctl@master
    - run: flyctl deploy --remote-only

Where - main is the name of the branch you want to update off of.

It’s really that simple. Keep in mind at the time of writing this you can only have 2 sites active for free and you will need some money in your account to move out of the trial phase and keep your sites up.
