What kind of resources?

Run mix release, open the release folder and find the binary to start your application. The code, runtime and configurations are all packed with the release.

There’s Deployment Archives - StakNine but the latest is 2022. He produced a book at Phoenix Deployment Handbook. There’s also Deploying Elixir - Miguel Cobá with his companion at Deploying Elixir eBook. Both are great resources and I’ve seen some other tutorials for Digital Ocean or running Elixir processes with supervisord. There’s also a library that helps create the scripts for that like mix release but it’ll take me a while to find that in my sea of GitHub stars.

This is my article about deploying to Ubuntu <= 20.04 LTS

What can I say, it worked the first time after just reading the official releases documentation (that you summarized nicely here).

I am quite impressed! This is great!

Thank you

My servers are all FreeBSD hosts. So I use FreeBSD jails.
I automate everything with gitlab pipelines.
So at the end, I make a merge request. Tag it with a version. Then the pipeline tests and builds the code with mix release, deploys it, creates a completely new jail with the release and fires its up.

All I have to do is, merge the request, tag it and done.

I will write something about it as soon as I have the time.
