30 seconds to running Cloud Foundry app (v3)
It’s been a couple of years since I did an update to the up and running with Cloud Foundry post. Things have change quite a bit under the covers, but the up and running is nearly the same. So here what it looks like:
First you won’t be doing a gem install of cf, instead you should go here and grab the installer package since it’s now done in go.
You should also have signed up for an account with Pivotal Web Services here or another CF provider’
In this demo I’ll use the php buildpack which is going to let me just write and index.html and view that
Once you’ve got those two things done a deploy looks like this
scottkahler$ mkdir demo scottkahler$ cd demo/ scottkahler$ echo 'This is a test' > index.html scottkahler$ cf push -b https://github.com/cloudfoundry/php-buildpack.git demo30sec
