BrixIT Platform

This is a management platform intended to run on Debian 8 (because systemd) to run webapplications written in several languages.

Currently planned supported platforms:

  • Python 2.7
  • Python 3.4
  • Nodejs
  • PHP

Platform works by downloading git (and others soon) repositories in the webinterface and creating "instances" of it. Platform will automatically create a new seperate environment for the webapplication (virtualenv for python for example) and create a systemd unit to run the webapp. It also can automaticaly create a new entry in nginx to reverse proxy the webapplications to port 80 in a subdirectory.

Installing

The install documentation is on platform.brixit.nl

Running

To start the management application:

$ systemctl start platformweb
# The server will start on port 5000

To start the background worker:

$ systemctl start platformworker

TODO

Not in any order:

  • Implement Nodejs platform
  • Write unit tests
  • Support subdomain proxy instead of directory
  • Implement PHP platform
  • Add process tree to instance detail page
  • Add config file support to instances
  • Bind instance settings to config file settings (automatic port change and mountpoint config)
  • Add CPU/Memory view to instances
  • Add permissions for more users and instances
  • Add auth support in reverse proxy
  • Add support for proxying external servers
  • Add support for SSL termination in proxying (maybe with mozilla's encrypt-the-web support)
  • Create Debian package
  • Create custom Debian iso
  • Support database creation and dependencies for instances
