Migrating infrastructure off Coolify
I've spent a while recently migrating my personal infrastructure off Coolify . Coolify 's an excellent tool and one that helped manage the initial learning curve of managing and deploying things when I started to self host things. As I got more comfortable with the process, issues and details I found myself wanting to remove it as an abstraction on top of what I had become comfortable managing.
Deploy on push with Forgejo and Coolify
All of my projects are now stored on my Forgejo instance rather than GitHub as the latter continues to speed run the enshittification curve. I've implemented a manual deploy button in my site's admin but for other, lighter-weight projects, I prefer to deploy changes whenever I push them up.
Using a Docker for deployments on Coolify
I have Coolify building my site and rsync -ing the build output to a separate LAMP server. There was a recent bug in a release that broke compatibility with Nixpacks that broke my previous deployment configuration. To the Coolify team's credit they pushed out a fix within hours (and noted that Nixpacks often has issues where it may break).
Adventures in self-hosting
"What did you do over the break?" "I moved everything to my own hosting!" ... I mean, that's hardly everything and it's far from the most important thing (or set of things) that I did, but it is a thing .
