Manage Capsules
In this document, you’ll learn how to manage your Capsules using the CLI.
Prerequisites
A running Capsule
It is assumed that you have a capsule that is running with at least one replica.
Configure network
To expose your Capsule to the public world, you need to configure its network settings. Begin by creating a network.yaml file inside of your application.
Next, add the following content to your file:
interfaces:
- name: http
port: 80
public:
enabled: true
method:
load_balancer:
port: 8081
Switch out port: 80 (application port) and port: 8081 (external port) with your ports. We can now apply these changes to our capsule by running
rig capsule -c <capsule-name> network configure network.yaml
You should now be able to access your application at http://localhost:8081.
Restart an Instance
A Capsule runs a set of replicas called instances. Instances can be thought of as Pods in Kubernetes. In case you want to restart an instance, first fetch the ID from the instance you want to delete. This can be done by listing your instances:
rig capsule -c <capsule-id> instance get
To restart instance run
rig capsule -c <capsule-id> instance restart <instance-id>
