Staytus is a complete solution for publishing the latest information about any issues with your web applications, networks or services. Along with absolutely beautiful public & admin interfaces, Staytus is a powerful tool for any organization with customers that rely on them to be online 24/7.
- Ruby 2.1 or greater
- RubyGems and Bundler
- A MySQL database server
Before start, you'll need to create a new MySQL database:
mysql$ CREATE DATABASE `staytus` CHARSET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci;
mysql$ GRANT ALL ON staytus.* TO `staytus`@`localhost` IDENTIFIED BY "a_secure_password";
$ git clone https://github.com/adamcooke/staytus
$ cd staytus
$ git checkout stable
$ bundle install --deployment --without development:test
$ cp config/database.example.yml config/database.yml
$ nano -w config/database.yml # Add your database configuration
$ bundle exec rake staytus:build staytus:install
$ bundle exec foreman start
This will run the application on HTTP port 5000. When you first login, you'll be able to add your own site settings. Browse to https://[IP]:5000 to begin.
You may also want to change the SMTP configuration via environment variables,
which are described in config/environment.example.yml
.
Once you've installed Staytus, you can easily upgrade it by following this process.
$ cd path/to/staytus
$ git pull origin stable
$ bundle
$ bundle exec rake staytus:build staytus:upgrade
Once you've done this, you should ensure you restart any Staytus processes which you have running.
- Install Docker locally
- Run
docker run -d -p 0.0.0.0:80:5000 --name=staytus adamcooke/staytus
- Go to https://localhost:80 and follow the instructions to configure Staytus
This will pull and start the latest published Staytus Docker image, and start it listening on port 80 on the host machine.
Note that this container includes two persistent volumes, one for the database (persisting all config and state) and one for persistent DB config.
When a new Staytus Docker image is published that you'd like to upgrade to:
- Stop your current Staytus container with
docker stop staytus
- Rename your previous container with
docker rename staytus staytus-old
- Start a new container, reusing your previous volumes, with
docker run -d -p 0.0.0.0:80:5000 --name=staytus --volumes-from=staytus-old adamcooke/staytus
- Delete the old container with
docker rm staytus-old
This will automatically migrate your DB to pick up any new changes, and bring in any new code changes from the Staytus code.
To log in for the first time, visit the /admin
, and log in with email
[email protected]
and password password
. You will probably want to go to
Settings -> Users and set up your admins.
All themes are stored in the content/themes
directory. You can
add your own themes in this directory but we do not recommend
making changes to the default
theme as these changes may get
overridden in an upgrade.
Full details about how to make these will be coming soon.
