Frequently asked questions

What is Spine Cloud?

Spine Cloud is a service for deploying Spine apps written in Go from your CLI and managing them in a web dashboard. You can view deployment history and the public address of a successful deployment.

How do I get started?

Spine Cloud is in open beta. Deployment requires the preview CLI. Install it with Go:

go install github.com/NARUBROWN/spine-cli/cmd/spine@preview

Create an account in the dashboard and review the terms of service. Run spine cloud auth login in the CLI and approve the one-time code in your browser to connect the same account.

Which apps can I deploy?

Spine Cloud is intended for Spine apps written in Go. Deployment requires a supported CLI, an eligible account and an available deployment target.

How do I deploy an app?

Connect your account, then run spine deploy from your project directory. The CLI shows deployment progress and the result. An accepted request does not mean the deployment has completed.

Where can I find my app's address?

After a successful deployment, you can find the public address in the CLI result and in the dashboard's deployment history.

How much does it cost?

All features are free during the open beta. If paid features are introduced later, pricing and terms will be provided before payment. See the terms of service for details.

How is Spine Cloud different from the Spine framework?

The Spine framework is available under the MIT license. Spine Cloud is a separate service for deploying and managing Spine apps.
