DESCRIPTION

Coolify is an open-source alternative to Heroku and Netlify, enabling self-hosted deployments of web apps, APIs, databases, and services on your own servers.

The coolify CLI tool provides terminal access to manage Coolify instances. Install via npm install -g @coollabsio/cli. Authenticate with coolify login <server-url>, then handle projects, services, deployments, and resources.

Supports Git-based deployments (GitHub, GitLab), Docker containers, one-click apps (WordPress, Ghost), databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL), automatic SSL via Let's Encrypt, environment variables, health checks, and scaling. Commands allow listing, creating, updating, deleting projects/services, triggering deployments, and viewing logs/metrics.

Perfect for DevOps enthusiasts seeking vendor-independent PaaS with multi-server support and team features. Runs on Linux servers with Docker; CLI works cross-platform.

CAVEATS

Requires Node.js/npm for installation and a running Coolify server (Docker-based). Beta CLI; check docs for latest subcommands.
