tinkr v0.1.12

Tinkr

Tinkr is designed to be a poor-man's PaaS. Together, with the tinkr-cli tool, it is meant to assist in getting new projects from idea stage to deployment in as few steps as possible.

Please Note: this is still a work in progress as I flush out the featureset of both client and server.

Installation

$ npm install tinkr -g

Usage

The module includes a command called tinkrd and can be executed via the command line:

$ tinkrd

But... the cloud!

I've always enjoyed the power, cost efficiency, and general guarantees that come with a dedicated private server. Unfortunately, getting one setup with nginx, sftp, and any other number of required services can be time consuming and frustrating. There's also the cases where I want to make apps for things like my home network, when you might have one or more computers. Tinkr is my solution to both of these problems and more.

Features

• reverse http proxy for hosted projects and project stubs.
• http domain routing.
• project versioning support.
• restful API to manage all operations.

Environment Settings

• TINKR_PORT - port to host the http service (default: 2999).

• TINKR_HOME - folder path where tinkr should store its packages and data files.

Contributions

Contributions are welcome! Fork and send a PR and I'll see about merging.
