### Bug Fixes
- #4388: @josegonzalez Do not inject max-size option when not using local or json-file log-drivers
- #4386: @josegonzalez Update to docker-image-labeler that handles in-use images
### New Features
- #4387: @josegonzalez Only warn if the vector container is stopped when fetching logs
- #4372: @josegonzalez Add ability to clear an individual resource
- #4384: @josegonzalez Add support for injected cron entries from external plugins
### Refactors
- #4373: @josegonzalez Do not attempt to extract Procfile in ps:scale
### Documentation
- #4377: @josegonzalez Add note about the dokku user cron being overwritten by Dokku
### Other
- #3757: @pickettd Add provision line to Windows Vagrant box for dokku-installer
This allows alternative plugins - such as dokku-letsencrypt - to inject scheduled cron tasks into the cron system used by Dokku. Cron systems can choose to include or not include a cron task based on the specified scheduler, and can also optionally use a third parameter to store arbitrary information.
The Procfile is now extracted in the pre-deploy step for every deploy and otherwise not removed. Thus, it should always exist when necessary - web will be scale to 1 automatically and it won't need to be present on future ps:scale calls since we'll have the scale file - and the command can execute faster.

This change minimizes the work needed to be done when tagging images. It edits the image manifest directly only when necessary, allowing restarts of an app to avoid having an extra layer.
This also additionally allows to deploy images with ONBUILD directives without running the ONBUILD directives.
Lastly, users building docker images that run Dokku will need to use a new sudoer wrapper for the `docker-image-labeler` binary to work correctly. A reference version has been placed in the `docker` skeleton directory.
Closes#3931
Refs #4226
Trace mode is useful for shell code, but less so for golang. Adding debug logging in golang for trigger calls makes it a little easier to see what is happening.
The previous lever for manipulating this was the DOKKU_IMAGE environment variable. While this is all well and good, it only works for CNB and is yet another `DOKKU_*` environment variable that need not exist.
While this does not add support for manipulating the CNB stack just yet, the groundwork is set for the future.
Closes#4306
The default for an app is empty, meaning it will fallback to the global value (which defaults to true). This will allow users to properly override the global value, regardless of what it is.
This functionality enables users to manage a global crontab for the Dokku user that contains all scheduled tasks across all apps. Alternative schedulers can implement cron tasks as desired.

Closes#4106
[ci skip]
This ensures that tmpdir (and related calls) respect the system defaults for temporary directory access. Critically, changing user via 'sudo' will leave the root temp directory in place, which causes dokku to have undefined behavior when writing to temporary files under libpam-tmpdir.
This may break cases where users have redefined tmpdir or related variables, but those cases can be remedied by specifying a value for TMPDIR (and related variables) in /etc/default/dokku.

- #4290: @josegonzalez Add support for debug logging plugin trigger stderr and stdout
Not all properties can be set globally, and the "appName" in the global case is currently defaulted to `--global`. This is okay because domain label names cannot start with hyphens, and all app names must be valid domain label names.
dburl adds aliases for everything, which breaks if two schemes are similar enough (anything with `aws_` as a prefix broke scheme registration). It does not appear to add anything, so we'll drop that dependency.
Also remove go-jsonmerge, as this was refactored to use structs instead of byte manipulation...
This is a fairly slow operation currently done serially, making ps:scale output brutally slow. Using an error group to parallelize the output is also pleasing to the eyes :)
Previously, this could get a bit hazy when running the command within a goroutine. The new method creates pipes for writing stdout/stderr for each call to PluginTriggerOutput, then debug logs if if trace mode is on.
While it is a bit weird to read, it is more correct and should get rid of any parallel processing issues.

0.22.0 changed allowed values for app names, making it more difficult for users to fix their app names - you need to either downgrade+rename or recreate the app. The `apps:rename` command can now rename these old applications to the new standard.
Also drop some app name verification from internal commands. Duplicate verification doesn't help much, and though it isn't excessively slow, it does prevent us from running commands against old apps that exist.
Refs #4267
When setting the `--app` flag, there was a special case for the config plugin. This plugin used to take the `--no-restart` flag as the first argument - and still did until this change - resulting in an invalid call to the plugin subcommands. What is worse is that this functionality carried over to all other plugins as they were rewritten in golang, and thus the issue spread without us knowing.
The fix is to support GNU flag parsing rules, which Golang does not do by default (Because Of Reasons™). Switching to `github.com/spf13/pflag` fixes this issue, and also allows positional arguments to be placed wherever, even in the middle of flags.
Closes#4255
This corrects an issue where if a symbolic link was given to the
`certs:add` command, an error would be thrown even though the file was
valid.

The previous output would also include a message like `exit status 1`. This allows us to silence that output and instead only capture that which was return from the subprocess.
This documentation should fill the need for users that wish to backup and restore their installations. While there are certainly other methods to trigger this process - and many caveats - this should give users more confidence as to how to approach the general problem.

This change adds a new builder - builder-cnb - via the 'DOKKU_CNB_EXPERIMENTAL' environment variable. While support for customizing pack builds is not currently implemented and there may be other missing functionality, this initial implementation allows folks to start playing with CNB.
Future releases of Dokku will provide tighter CNB integration and eventually switch to CNB for default building, as well as allow users to better select builders needed for their applications.
All new code for CNB support should be considered experimental and subject to change as the support evolves over time.
If the containers no longer exist and the images are unused, we should remove the images as well.
Note that images may sometimes stick around for a little while, depending on the retire schedule and the wait time specified for the container.
Closes#4104
Rather than attempting to always extract the Procfile, reference the one that was extracted by the last deploy. This fixes issues where 'docker container cp' may fail intermittently for lord knows what reason.
Closes#4083
Rather than waiting for the next deploy, take advantage of the retire system to retire these containers immediately.
Note that since the retire process happens out of band, the containers may stick around for up to 5 minutes, after which point they will be removed.
Customization of the wait time to retire - currently 60 seconds - is up for future debate. The containers ultimately haven't been useful for debugging, so keeping them around for longer won't help in most cases, and folks can disable the dokku-retire service (or cron) if that is desired.
There are other places in the codebase that currently act on all apps or could benefit from being able to do so. Being able to run `common.RunCommandAgainstAllApps()` and get that for free will be a boon to implementing this functionality elsewhere.
Better would be to separate the release and deploy aspects into distinct triggers - as well as have it release a specific image - but this is a good first pass.
This fixes when a user (or plugin) has replaced the cert with a symlink; else the symlinked file would be overwritten.
This mainly is in the case of a global-cert (plugin) wildcard cert
Heroku's ruby project changed its default branch from master to main.
This broke the examples in the documentation. This change explicitly
names main and master.
Unfortunately, Docker does not persist container IPs on boot, so containers may come up with the wrong IP, resulting in proxying to the incorrect app after a server restart. Instead, we should delete the configs and let ps:restore rebuild the proxy config correctly.
Closes#3932
This is necessary for ensuring ssl certificates can be auto-retrieved for apps, and also easing integration into schedulers that use names and process types as part of DNS records.
As well, this fixes an issue where we may potentially have invalid DNS entries when adding apps to custom networks.
Closes#4102Closes#4114
Dokku internals shouldn't be exposed in docs. Additionally, the internals here are likely to change in the future as this moves to the upcoming prop binary, so having incorrect docs will hinder that move.
Added a quote around the "$EXPECTED" to deal with text with restricted characters. While deploying a Spring Boot application, the content of the built-in health check is {"status":"UP"}. Unfortunately all my checks failed, because for some reason the comparison didn't like this content.
remote: ! http://localhost/actuator/health: expected to but did not find: "{"status":"UP"}"
remote: ! Check attempt 7/10 failed.
After making this change, it works: I'm assuming the difference is that the presence of the quote characters in the content.
This fixes an issue where disk space is not recouped after deploys unless 'dokku cleanup' without arguments is called.
Also injects the label-schema labels as necessary.
Refs #4099
Previous versions extracted the values as strings, prefixing the values with `/bin/sh -c '$CMD'` unnecessarily. This caused issues where we would incorrectly overrride these values when an app had a predeploy script.

The 'server.key' and 'server.crt' can printed to stdin.
The two options are:
`dokku certs:show <app> key > server.key`
`dokku certs:show <app> crt > server.crt`
This will create two files, `server.key` and `server.crt`.
Those files contain the private key and the certificate.
Includes tests.
This hopefully makes it a little easier to work with as the tooling is now based on something in golang core.
- move columnize usage to common plugin
- remove old vendor files
There is likely a better regex for the actually allowed names, but this will suffice for ensuring folks don't do weird things with their folder structures...
Closes#4013
Bring configuration in line with the latest Cloud init verison. Tested under 20.1.
Mainly done due to `debconf_selections` not working with the old syntac.
See the `debconf_selections` item under https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/modules.html#apt-configure
Changes include:
- reboot when apt deems it necessary,
- define update and upgrade with the package syntax,
- bring apt sources and keys inline with apt syntax and
- dynamically get the right release by using the var '$RELEASE'.
[ci skip]
This cloudinit script had become outdated.
Changed 4 things:
- docker repository had moved
- use current docker gpg key
- use current dokku gpg key
- move over to ubuntu focal LTS 20.20
This functionality was broken due to a refactor of argument handling in a previous release.
In addition to the fix, all the functionality was moved to scheduler-enter, which allows scheduler plugins to implement ways of entering containers in the relevant scheduler.
Closes#3972
The `tls` name is no longer a reserved app name, and can be used by applications. This was previously a reserved app name due to it's use as a place for global SSL certificate files; Dokku has not supported global SSL certificates for many releases, and thus there is no need to reserve the name.
These are usually not optional and actually explain what a user is interested in. As we don't have documentation partials, duplication isn't in favor of the project maintainer's benefit.
Closes#3927
In dokku/dokku#3602 a new error page for the 502 status code was
introduced.
However, this error page is not currently being used, and results in a
404 error being served instead, because nginx is trying to load a
non-existent file:
```
open() "/var/lib/dokku/data/nginx-vhosts/dokku-errors/502-error.html" failed (2: No such file or directory)
```
Fix this by copying the `502-error.html` file into the `dokku-errors`
directory upon installation.

This change allows users to specify a custom nginx.conf.sigil that can expose non-web process types to the outside world in addition to the web process type.
Closes#3258
A git push requires that the first four bytes should be the line length, so not suppressing the output results in a partially failed deploy.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/8175315/1515875
While the latest packages may continue to work on other releases, we will no longer officially support these releases, nor will we distribute packages.
Supporting versions more than a year old is difficult with a quick-moving project, and not worth the time that could be better spent fixing existing bugs/adding new functionality for an OSS project.
This change removes all deprecated commands. In many cases, users have been warned for a number of releases before the commands have been removed. All commands that were removed have existing alternatives.
This standardization makes it somewhat easier to read stacktraces as the command names are all uniform, so it will be slightly easier to scan trace output.
This unifies all the report-handling code so that plugins only need to worry about the data they wish to represent, and not the logic of actually returning it.
Containers can be attached:
- after they are created, but before they are started
- after a successful deploy, but before the proxy reloads
This allows folks to have flexibility around when they would like a container to be made available to a network.
This enables the HSTS header by default when an SSL certificate is in use. HSTS options can also be managed via the nginx:set command, which also exposes the ability to disable HSTS for your application.
The IMAGE_TAG is not always available, while the IMAGE_SOURCE_TYPE is. Since the point of these triggers was to unify the argument passed and make it easier to interact with them, this version makes more sense.
Closes#3780
The deployment documentation on scoping user access pointed only to the
development documentation for implementing plugins to handle user
scoping.
Added link to the dokku-acl plugin, which already handles user scoping
out of the box.

In host-mode, there is no 'bridge' network by default, so we return an invalid IP address of 'no value'. Instead, return '127.0.0.1' for those containers.
As there can be custom schedulers, including scheduler-specific information on the resource management page can be a disingenuous - the values don't map to kubernetes, for example - and thus we should call out to the scheduler docs (and underlying docker docs) to make the mapping more clear.

This will reduce the size of binaries in exchange for worse debugging output. This is acceptable for our users and worth it to save money on packagecloud package hosting - which is currently free under a given repository size.
Rather than reimplementing the property functions in two different languages - and potentially having compatibility issues - standardize on golang for the implementation through the use of a generated binary.
This also implements all the list functions for use with shell-based plugins.
Note that the interface to the prop binary is experimental, and it should not be used directly.

This actually breaks compatability since now we drop python2 support completely, but it's worth it to fix the weird issues with trying to support both versions.
Closes#3740Closes#3752
Refs #3717
Ideally python usage goes away - the dokku-installer should become a mandatory cli command, and the plugin is rewritten in golang - but for now, we need to use the correct binary when running dokku.
Closes#3714
This adds the Nginx Trust Proxy plugin
This plugin allows dokku to be run behind (multiple) proxies in and gives developers the opportunity to support reverse proxy layers
After a `dokku run` container is created and started, this plugin trigger will allow developers to run auxiliary commands in response to that container.
This feature is allows users to add extra label metadata to one-off containers. As this can interfere with Dokku internals if they shadow labels used by plugins, care should be taken to avoid the `com.dokku` or `org.label-schema` namespace.
Also proper name run containers so they don't get random names from docker...
This change allows supporting the openresty package as installed on Ubuntu 18.04 from the official openresty package repository, while also returning general nginx support.
Closes#3675
It may be desirable to keep the contents of the git directory for the build process. Certain build tools can extract extra information from the .git directory, and some workflows may require that the shipped artifact has the entire source code available locally for later usage.
This change refactors the compiled golang plugins into 3 distinct binaries:
- commands: already existing
- subcommands/subcommands: entrypoint into all subcommands
- triggers: entrypoint into all triggers
It then further symlinks triggers and subcommands to the built binaries. This results in both a much faster build process as well as smaller package size.
This PR uses the new syntax for commands introduced in Docker 1.13, making it a bit easier to understand just what a particular command is trying to do.
This also pushes the long-form syntax for docker command flags, which are also easier to understand at a glance.
The version in DOKKU_ROOT may be incorrect for docker-based installs if that directory is mounted from an external volume. Instead, pull it from the DOKKU_LIB_ROOT directory, and respect the STABLE_VERSION if specified (VERSION will be the entire version, including commit sha).
This will allow background processes to cleanup these files if they were unable to be cleaned up during a run of the dokku binary, as is the case for files copied by the docker binary when running in docker.
This will allow those triggers to insert and extract files from the sourcecode work directory. Note that changes are not committed to this directory, nor will they be reflected in the committed codebase.

If you are running docker in docker, the permissions on the generated file are such that they may not be accessible by the normal dokku user. For dokku, it is good enough to ignore the failed removal.
If "docker cp" is run within docker, it seems the owner is root, resulting in other processes not being able to directly read the file without resorting to `cat` trickery. Doing this in a single place avoids the problem completely.
Asynchronous image removal would remove intermediate build images during the build process, causing intermittent build failures for users of multi-stage dockerfiles. While we still remove intermediate docker images that may be used in the current build, we now do so during the deploy, ensuring that there are no intermediate build failures in the future.
Closes#3474
As this trigger is always in the execution path, `plugn` starts and expensively checks to see if it can execute the trigger. Rather than call this on every invocation, skip the trigger if no non-core implementation exists.
This is a "one-shot" ability, meaning that it is highly discouraged for multiple plugins to implement the triggers.
The `builder-create-dokku-image` trigger is meant to modify the base DOKKU_IMAGE that will be used to build an application. A good use of the hook is to inject system packages by:
- calculating an image tag from the set of system packages
- checking that the image doesnt already exist
- creating the image if it does not
As the output is sent to stdout, we have to find an alternative way of fetching the new DOKKU_IMAGE. The `builder-dokku-image` trigger can output an image tag based on the calculated image tag. If no tag is output, then the DOKKU_IMAGE is used as is.
Using this pattern, users can efficiently modify the base image in use for an app without duplicating the work on every push. This is especially useful for package installation, where packages are required for app building, but may take a long time and can be error prone.
A builder plugin implements some method for 'building' artifacts from a given source code archive. This refactor moves the majority of the image building code into separate plugins, allowing us to implement other builders, but also simplifying the common pugin codebase.
Also move the pre-build-buildpack hook from the build-env plugin to builder-herokuish.
This reduces duplication and allows users to rely on global arguments to generate most labels needed.
The 'commit' command cannot have global arguments because the whitespace within the label change breaks string-based interpolation, and shell arrays cannot be exported.
The plugin creation docs were hard to follow, unnecessarily complicating issues for developers. The new format should make the recommendations clear, and align examples with the core code.
[ci skip]
In some cases, the cache directory may exist but there may be no app image to use for cache purging. This may be the case if the app was never deployed.
Instead of failing, we can simply use the configured herokuish image for clearing cache, as that image is the base image for anything that would have modified cache.

This change allows operators to specify a DOCKER_BIN environment variable.

`[a-z0-9\.\*-]+` includes `\.` and `[a-z0-9\*-]+`.

and other optional chars are `[a-z0-9\.\*-]*`.
A DOKKU_SCALE file will always be used for managing the scale count for an app if it exists in a repository. As such, ps:scale usage should be disabled in those cases. This commit makes that more apparent.
Also document how to build a specific core plugin for testing purposes.
Closes#3544
This was removed in c9bbddcfcb as it was more complicated for operators to figure out _exactly_ which combination of limits/reservations would apply to their applications. Unfortunately, the documentation was never updated.
We may re-add this functionality in the future, but for now, cleaning up the docs is the best option.

### New Features

This is useful in cases where the command output must be tested, but it is otherwise embedded in a specific part of the dokku core.
As the 'plugin' commands require root, this is safe to add to the core.
If the subdomain is url-like, assume it is a valid url and use it for the default domain name. This allows users to specify the default domain for an app even if that is a subdomain of a global vhost.

## Backup and Migration Tutorial
The best plan for disaster recovery is to always keep multiple (remote) copies of your local repo, static assets and periodic database dumps. Backups should be regularly tested for data integrity and completeness.
## TLDR
> Warning: This method has many caveats. Please read this entire document before assuming these backups work as expected, and test your backups on a regular basis.
### Creating a backup
To create a backup, run the following command at a time when not executing any Dokku commands or app deployments:
```shell
exportBACKUP_TIME=$(date +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M)
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/dokku/services
sudo chown dokku:dokku /var/lib/dokku/services
mkdir -p /tmp/dokku-backups/
sudo tar -czvf "/tmp/dokku-backups/${BACKUP_TIME}.tar.gz" /home/dokku /var/lib/dokku/config /var/lib/dokku/data /var/lib/dokku/services /var/lib/dokku/plugins
```
This will create a point-in-time backup of your entire Dokku installation in the `/tmp/dokku-backups` directory. This backup may be moved offsite to another location via rsync, sftp, or some other protocol.
It is recommended that backups are regularly cleaned from the originating server and tested as necessary.
### Restoring a backup
To extract the backup onto another server, copy the backup to the server and extract it using the following command.
```shell
sudo tar -xzvf path/to/dokku/backup.tar.gz -C /
```
At this point, all datastores should be individually started and checked for data integrity. Once this is complete, individual applications can be rebuilt. Please consult the [process management documentation](/docs/deployment/process-management.md#rebuilding-apps) for more information on how to rebuild applications.
## Caveats
### App config
Application config is largely held in a small number of places:
-`/var/lib/dokku/config`: Properties set and managed by plugins
-`/var/lib/dokku/data`: Files generated or extracted by various plugins
-`/home/dokku`: Certain parts of Dokku core store data in this location
Compressing these directories when no Dokku commands are running is enough to ensure a complete backup of the system.
### Code Repositories
Because Dokku is git based, rebuilding a deployed app is as easy as pushing from git. You can push to a new server by updating the `dokku` remote in you local app's repo.
@@ -11,7 +55,14 @@ git remote rm dokku

## Databases
### Docker Image and Tar-based Apps
These applications may fail to rebuild via the normal `ps:rebuild` method. Redeploy these apps by running the original commands used to deploy them
### Datastores
> Please note that point-in-time backups of the `/var/lib/dokku/services` directory may contain partially written data due to how various datastores work. Consult the official datastore documentation for the best documentation surrounding proper backup and restore procedures.
Some plugins, like the official [dokku-postgres](https://github.com/dokku/dokku-postgres) plugin, have built-in commands that allow non-volatile data be exported and imported.
Additionally, data for official datastores is located in the `/var/lib/dokku/services` directory. If the directory is restored and the plugin is available, a `dokku $SERVICE:start` may be enough to restart the service with the underlying data, so long as the datastore version does not change and the underlying data is not corrupt. If this is the case, it may be necessary to re-import all the data onto a fresh version of the datastore service.
### Plugins
The plugin directory is contained at the `/var/lib/dokku/plugins` directory. Core plugins will automatically be included in new installs, but custom plugins may not. The aforementioned `tar` creation command will back all plugins up, and the `tar` extract command will restore the plugins.
Note that restoring a plugin will not trigger any `install` or `dependencies` triggers. You will need to run these manually. See the [plugin management documentation](/docs/advanced-usage/plugin-management.md#installing-a-plugin) for more information on how to trigger these two hooks.
### Volumes and Static Assets
Dokku doesn't enforce a [300mb](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/slug-compiler#slug-size) limit on apps, but it's best practice to keep binary assets outside of git. Since containers are considered volatile in Dokku, external stores like s3 or storage mounts should be used for non-volatile items like user uploads. The Dokku storage core plugin can be used to mount local directories / volumes inside the docker container.
See the [persistent storage documentation](/docs/advanced-usage/persistent-storage.md) for more details.
System administrators are highly encouraged to store persistent data in app-specific subdirectories of the path `/var/lib/dokku/data/storage`. This will help ensure restores of the aforementioned primary Dokku directories will restore service to all apps.
See the [persistent storage documentation](/docs/advanced-usage/persistent-storage.md) for more information on how to attach persistent storage to your application.
## Disaster Recovery
## Recovering app code
The best plan for disaster recovery is to always keep multiple (remote) copies of your local repo, static assets and periodic database dumps. In case of an emergency when your git repo and backups are completely lost, you can recover the last pushed copy from your remote Dokku server (assuming you still have the ssh key).

> Warning: All plugin commands other than `plugin:list` and `plugin:help` require sudo access and must be run directly from the Dokku server.
### Checking if a plugin is installed
You can check if a plugin has been installed via the `plugin:installed` command:
```shell
dokku plugin:installed postgres
```
### Installing a plugin
Installing a plugin is easy as well using the `plugin:install` command. This command will also trigger the `install` pluginhook on all existing plugins.
The most common usage is to install a plugin from a url. This url may be any of the following:
-`git`: For git+ssh based plugin repository clones.
-`ssh`: For git+ssh based plugin repository clones.
-`file`: For copying plugins from a path on disk.
-`https`: For http based plugin repository clones.
Additionally, any urls with the extensions `.tar.gz` or `.tgz` are treated as Gzipped Tarballs for installation purposes and will be downloaded and extracted into place.
You can also uninstall a third-party plugin using the `plugin:uninstall` command:
For git-based plugin installation, a commit SHA-like object may be specified (tag/branch/commit sha) via the `--committish` argument and Dokku will attempt to install the specified commit object.
Plugin names are interpolated based on the repository name minus the `dokku-` prefix. If the plugin being installed has a name other than what matches the repository name - or another name is desired - the `--name` flag can be used to override this interpolation.
The `--core` flag may also be indicated as the sole argument, though it is only for installation of core plugins, and thus not useful for end-user installations.
```shell
dokku plugin:install --core
```
Finally, all flags may be omitted to trigger the `install` procedures for both core and third-party plugins:
```shell
dokku plugin:install
```
### Installing plugin dependencies
In some cases, plugins will have system-level dependencies. These are not automatically installed via `plugin:install`, and must be separately via the `plugin:install-dependencies` command. This will run through all the `dependencies` trigger for all plugins.
```shell
dokku plugin:install-dependencies
```
This command may also target _just_ core plugins via the `--core` flag. This is usually only useful for source-based installs of Dokku.
```shell
dokku plugin:install-dependencies --core
```
### Updating a plugin
An installed, third-party plugin can be updated can updated via the `plugin:update` command. This should be done after any upgrades of Dokku as there may be changes in the internal api that require an update of how the plugin interfaces with Dokku.
Please note that this command is only valid for plugin installs that were backed by a git-repository.
```shell
dokku plugin:update postgres
```
```
Plugin (postgres) updated
```
An optional commit SHA-like object may be specified.
```shell
dokku plugin:update postgres 2.0.0
```
### Uninstalling a plugin
Third party plugins can be uninstalled using the `plugin:uninstall` command:
Enabling or disabling a plugin can also be useful in cases where you are debugging whether a third-party plugin is causing issues in your Dokku installation:
### Disabling a plugin
Disabling a plugin can also be useful for debugging whether a third-party plugin is causing issues in a Dokku installation. Another common use case is for disabling core functionality for replacement with a third-party plugin.

The following commands were previously deprecated and were removed in this release.
-`apps`: Use `apps:list` instead.
-`certs`: Use `certs:report` instead.
-`certs:info`: Use `certs:report` instead.
-`checks`: Use `checks:report` instead.
-`docker-options`: Use `docker-options:report` instead.
-`domains`: Use `domains:report` instead.
-`plugin`: Use `plugin:list` instead.
-`proxy`: Use `proxy:report` instead.
-`trace`: Use `trace:on` or `trace:off` instead.
-`ps`: Use `enter` with a container ID instead to run `ps auxww` within a container.
The refactor of the proxy plugin removes the following functions from being sourced in plugins:
-`proxy#get_app_proxy_port_map()`
-`proxy#list_app_proxy_ports()`
-`proxy#filter_app_proxy_ports()`
-`proxy#add_proxy_ports()`
-`proxy#remove_proxy_ports()`
-`proxy#set_proxy_ports()`
The informal policy is to allow removal of functions within a `functions` file if they are not used in OSS plugins. Should you be affected by any such removals, please file an issue to expose the functionality via a plugin trigger.
### Function renames
-`tar#tar_in_cmd` was renamed to `tar#cmd-tar-in`. Users should avoid using `cmd-*` commands directly, and instead file an issue to have them exposed via a plugin trigger.
-`tar#tar_from_cmd` was renamed to `tar#cmd-tar-from`. Users should avoid using `cmd-*` commands directly, and instead file an issue to have them exposed via a plugin trigger.
### Remove support for Unsupported Operating Systems
Dokku will no longer distribute packages for Ubuntu versions that have reached either End of Life or End of Standard Support (for LTS releases). This currently includes the following releases:
- Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty)
- Ubuntu 14.10 (utopic)
- Ubuntu 15.04 (vivid)
- Ubuntu 15.10 (wily)
- Ubuntu 16.10 (yakkety)
- Ubuntu 17.04 (zesty)
- Ubuntu 17.10 (artful)
Dokku will no longer distribute packages for Debian versions that are not `stable` or `oldstable`. This currently includes the following releases:
- Debian 7 (wheezy)
- Debian 8 (jessie)
### App report flags
The `--git-sha` flag was moved from the `apps:report` command to the `git:report` command.
## App report output
When an app is not deployed, the `apps:report` command no longer shows the message `not deployed`. Please use the `--deployed` flag on `ps:report` instead to see if the app has been deployed.
## Changes
### App report flags
The following changes on the `apps:report` command were made in this release:
- The `--deploy-source` flag was renamed to `--app-deploy-source`.
- The `--locked` flag was renamed to `--app-locked`.
### Network report flags
The following changes on the `network:report` command were made in this release:
- The `--network-listeners` flag was renamed to `--network-web-listeners`.
### Plugin Triggers
- The `network-get-port` trigger was incorrectly documented to have the `isHerokuishContainer` argument as the third argument. The code has been fixed to respect the documentation.
- The `network-get-listeners` trigger now takes an additional `processType` argument. If not specified, it defaults to `web`. This default will be removed in an upcoming release.
## Deprecations
-`nginx:show-conf` has been deprecated in favor of `nginx:show-config`.
-`proxy#is_app_proxy_enabled()` is deprecated in favor of `plugn trigger proxy-is-enabled`.
-`proxy#get_app_proxy_type()` is deprecated in favor of `plugn trigger proxy-type`.
-`apps#apps_create()` is deprecated in favor of `plugn trigger app-create`.
-`apps#apps_destroy()` is deprecated in favor of `plugn trigger app-destroy`.
-`apps#apps_exists()` is deprecated in favor of `plugn trigger app-exists`.
-`apps#apps_maybe_create()` is deprecated in favor of `plugn trigger app-maybe-create`.
-`plugin trigger network-get-listeners` usage without a second `processType` argument is deprecated.
-`.NGINX_PORT` variable usage within `nginx.conf.sigil` templates is deprecated in favor of `.PROXY_PORT`.
-`.NGINX_SSL_PORT` variable usage within `nginx.conf.sigil` templates is deprecated in favor of `.PROXY_SSL_PORT`.
-`.DOKKU_APP_LISTENERS` variable usage within `nginx.conf.sigil` templates is deprecated in favor of `.DOKKU_APP_WEB_LISTENERS`.
The `tls` name is no longer a reserved app name, and can be used by applications. This was previously a reserved app name due to it's use as a place for global SSL certificate files; Dokku has not supported global SSL certificates for many releases, and thus there is no need to reserve the name.
## Deprecations
-`git#git_deploy_branch()` is deprecated in favor of `plugn trigger git-deploy-branch`.
- The `config` command is deprecated in favor of `config:show`.
- Usage of this command in conjunction with either the `--export` or `--shell` flag is deprecated in favor of `config:export --format` with the correct format value (`exports` or `shell`, respectively).
- The `nginx:build-config` command is deprecated in favor of `proxy:build-config`.
## Removals
The `apps:destroy` command no longer takes a second argument `force`. Instead, this can be passed as the `--force` flag, either globally or as a flag to the command itself.
The `proxy:enable` and `proxy:disable` no longer restart apps when setting the `DOKKU_DISABLE_PROXY` environment variable. A future release will disable usage of `DOKKU_DISABLE_PROXY` altogether.
- Calling `logs:failed` without either a `<name>` or the `--all` flag is deprecated.
## Changes
- Underscores are no longer valid characters in app names. Please rename applications before upgrading.
- Process type names specified in Procfile may no longer use characters not valid in DNS Label Names ([RFC 1123](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1123)).
- The minimum Docker version is now 17.05.0.
- The `common.GetDeployingAppImageName()` function now returns an `error` as the second return argument instead of calling `common.LogFail()` internally.
- Setting `DOKKU_DISABLE_ANSI_PREFIX_REMOVAL` is deprecated; Dokku 0.23.0 will avoid removing the `remote:` ansi prefix entirely. No warning will be added in this release.
## Removals
The `ps` command has had a few removals as a result of a rewrite to Golang:
- The `ps:set-restart-policy` command has been removed in favor the `ps:set` command.
- The `ps:restart-policy` command has been removed in favor of the `ps:report` command.
- The `ps:rebuildall` command has been removed in favor of calling the `ps:rebuild` with the `--all` flag instead of an app name.
- The `ps:restartall` command has been removed in favor of calling the `ps:restart` with the `--all` flag instead of an app name.
- The `ps:stopall` command has been removed in favor of calling the `ps:stop` with the `--all` flag instead of an app name.
- The `ps:startall` command has been removed in favor of calling the `ps:start` with the `--all` flag instead of an app name.
- The `DOKKU_PROCFILE` file is no longer located in the git directory for a given app on the server. It's location is currently not exposed.
- The `procfile-get-command` plugin trigger no longer takes a `procfile path` as the final argument.
- All `ps` functions have been removed. Please us a trigger as appropriate or file a PR to have a new trigger/wrapper function added.
- The `plugin:list` command no longer outputs the version for the `plugn` binary.
- Users building docker images that run Dokku will need to use a new sudoer wrapper for the `docker-image-labeler` binary to work correctly. A reference version has been placed in the `docker` skeleton directory. This should only impact platform developers, and users of our Docker image will already have the file available.
- The `dokku` user's cron is now in use by Dokku itself. Customizations will be overwritten. Users are encouraged to use a cron entry in `/etc/cron.d/dokku` to avoid this issue.
- As of 0.23.0, Dokku will now inject the `max-size` log driver option for applications. This is restricted to app-configured log driver values empty, `local` or `json-file` in 0.23.1 to increase setup compatibility. Users who configure alternative log drivers at the system level will need to either set the global `max-size` property to `unlimited` or switch to the built-in `vector` logging support.
Given the constraints, running Dokku commands remotely via SSH is fine. For certain configurations, the extra complication of manually invoking ssh can be a burden.
While Dokku does not yet have an official client, there are a multitude of ways in which you can interact with your Dokku installation. The easiest is to use the **bash** client, though you may wish to use another.
The easiest way to interact with Dokku remotely is by using the official client. Documented below are the various clients that you may wish to use.
## (bash, zsh, etc.) `dokku_client.sh`
## Official Client
Of all methods, this is the *most* official method of interacting with your Dokku installation. It is a bash script that interacts with a remote Dokku installation via ssh. It is available in `contrib/dokku_client.sh` in the root of the Dokku repository.
To install, simply clone the Dokku repository down and add the `dokku` alias pointing at the script:
```shell
git clone git@github.com:dokku/dokku.git ~/.dokku
# optional: make sure that the dokku_client.sh version matches your Dokku version
cd ~/.dokku
git checkout <tag/branch>
# add the following to either your
# .bashrc, .bash_profile, or .profile file
aliasdokku='$HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
```
Alternatively, if using another shell such as **zsh**, create an alias command which invokes the script using **bash**:
```shell
# zsh: add the following to either .zshenv or .zshrc
# fish: add the following to ~/.config/fish/config.fish
alias dokku 'bash $HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
# csh: add the following to .cshrc
alias dokku 'bash $HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
```
Configure the `DOKKU_HOST` environment variable or run `dokku` from a repository with a git remote named `dokku` pointed at your Dokku host in order to use the script as normal.
You can also configure a `DOKKU_PORT` environment variable if you are running ssh on a non-standard port. This defaults to `22`.
See the [remote commands documentation](/docs/deployment/remote-commands.md) for more information on how to install and use the official client.

Gitlab-CI can be used to automatically deploy a Dokku application using the [ilyasemenov/gitlab-ci-git-push image](https://github.com/IlyaSemenov/gitlab-ci-git-push) docker image.
## Prerequisites
Make sure you have a Gitlab account and a Dokku project hosted on Gitlab. This method works whether if you are using buildpacks or Dockerfile.
Make sure you have set up an app on the remote machine following [these instructions](http://dokku.viewdocs.io/dokku/deployment/application-deployment/) and can successfully deploy to it from the local machine.
## Deploy automatically to production
### Add a secret variable
Browse to the repository in question and visit the following path: `the Gitlab project > Settings > CI/CD.`
Click on `Secret variables > Expand` and fill in the blanks.
- Key: `SSH_PRIVATE_KEY`
- Value: paste in an SSH private key registered in Dokku:
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
...
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
- Environment scope: `production` (This make sure that `SSH_PRIVATE_KEY` is not available on merge requests or tests)
- Protected: Do not check this checkbox unless you know what you are doing
### Add CI script
Create a file named `.gitlab-ci.yml` at the root directory of the repository with the following contents:
```yaml
stages:
- deploy
variables:
APP_NAME:node-js-app
deploy:
image:ilyasemenov/gitlab-ci-git-push
stage:deploy
environment:
name:production
url:https://$APP_NAME.dokku.me/
only:
- master
script:
- git-push ssh://dokku@dokku.me:22/$APP_NAME
```
You will need to modify the `APP_NAME` variable to the correct value for your application name.
Running `git push origin master` will now trigger a gitlab-ci pipeline that will automatically deploy your application to your Dokku server. Go to your project on Gitlab and visit "Project > Pipelines" to see the deployment log.
## Review Applications
One useful feature of gitlab is to be able to create review applications for non-production branches. This allows teams to review changes _before_ they are pushed to production. First, recreate the `SSH_PRIVATE_KEY` secret - do not delete the existing secret - but scoped to the `review/*` environment. This will allow non-production gitlab environments access to the secret.
Next, we'll need to create the `review_app` gitlab job in our `.gitlab-ci.yaml`.
The first two lines ensure that Gitlab can talk to the Dokku server. Next, we take advantage of the `apps:clone` command, and clone the existing application and all of it's configuration to a new location. If the new application already exists, the third line of the `script` step will be ignored. We also ignore the first deploy script to speed up the cloning process. Finally, the fourth line of the `script` step will deploy the code as normal.
The above only runs for non-master branches, and will _also_ trigger an `on_stop` job called `stop_review_app`. When the branch is deleted or the code is merged, the `stop_review_app` job will be triggered.
The `subdomain` is inferred from the pushed application name, while the `domain.tld` is set during initial dokku configuration. It can then be modified with `dokku domains:add-global` and `dokku domains:remove-global`. This value is used as a default TLD for all applications on a host.
If a FQDN such as `other.tld` is used as the application name, the global virtualhost will be ignored and the resulting vhost URL for that application will be `other.tld`. The exception to this rule being that if the FQDN has the same ending as the default vhost (such as `subdomain.domain.tld`), then the entire FQDN will be treated as a subdomain. The application will therefore be deployed at `subdomain.domain.tld.domain.tld`.
If an FQDN such as `dokku.org` is used as the application name, the global virtualhost will be ignored and the resulting vhost URL for that application will be `dokku.org`.
You can optionally override this in a plugin by implementing the `nginx-hostname` plugin trigger. For example, you can reverse the subdomain with the following sample `nginx-hostname` plugin trigger:

By default, Dokku will route any received request with an unknown HOST header value to the lexicographically first site in the nginx config stack. If this is not the desired behavior, you may want to add the following configuration to the global nginx configuration.
Create the file at `/etc/nginx/conf.d/00-default-vhost.conf`:
```nginx
server{
listen80default_server;
server_name_;
access_logoff;
return410;
}

# ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/cert.key;
# access_log off;
# return 410;
# }
```
Make sure to reload nginx after creating this file by running `service nginx reload`.
This will catch all unknown HOST header values and return a `410 Gone` response. You can replace the `return 410;` with `return 444;` which will cause nginx to not respond to requests that do not match known domains (connection refused).
The configuration file must be loaded before `/etc/nginx/conf.d/dokku.conf`, so it can not be arranged as a vhost in `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled` that is only processed afterwards.
Alternatively, you may push an app to your Dokku host with a name like "00-default". As long as it lists first in `ls /home/dokku/*/nginx.conf | head`, it will be used as the default nginx vhost.
This is specific to your proxy plugin of choice. See the [nginx documentation](/docs/configuration/nginx.md#default-site) for more information on how to configure this for the default nginx proxy implementation.

## Checking access logs
## Usage
### Request Proxying
By default, the `web` process is the only process proxied by the nginx proxy implementation. Proxying to other process types may be handled by a custom `nginx.conf.sigil` file, as generally described [below](/docs/configuration/nginx.md#customizing-the-nginx-configuration)
Nginx will proxy the requests in a [round-robin balancing fashion](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_upstream_module.html#upstream) to the different deployed (scaled) containers running the `web` proctype. This way, the host's resources can be fully leveraged for single-threaded applications (e.g. `dokku ps:scale node-js-app web=4` on a 4-core machine)
### Binding to specific addresses
> New as of 0.19.2
By default, nginx will listen to all interfaces (`[::]` for IPv6, `0.0.0.0` for IPv4) when proxying requests to applications. This may be changed using the `bind-address-ipv4` and `bind-address-ipv6` properties. This is useful in cases where the proxying should be internal to a network or if there are multiple network interfaces that should respond with different content.
This may be reverted by setting an empty bind address.
```shell
dokku nginx:set node-js-app bind-address-ipv4
dokku nginx:set node-js-app bind-address-ipv6
```
> Warning: Validation is not performed on either value.
Users with apps that contain a custom `nginx.conf.sigil` file will need to modify the files to respect the new `NGINX_BIND_ADDRESS_IPV4` and `NGINX_BIND_ADDRESS_IPV6` variables.
### HSTS Header
> New as of 0.20.0
If SSL certificates are present, HSTS will be automatically enabled. It can be toggled via `nginx:set`:
```shell
dokku nginx:set node-js-app hsts true
dokku nginx:set node-js-app hsts false
```
The following options are also available via the `nginx:set` command:
-`hsts` (type: boolean, default: `true`): Enables or disables HSTS for your application.
-`hsts-include-subdomains` (type: boolean, default: `true`): Tells the browser that the HSTS policy also applies to all subdomains of the current domain.
-`hsts-max-age` (type: integer, default: `15724800`): Time in seconds to cache HSTS configuration.
-`hsts-preload` (type: boolean, default: `false`): Tells most major web browsers to include the domain in their HSTS preload lists.
Beware that if you enable the header and a subsequent deploy of your application results in an HTTP deploy (for whatever reason), the way the header works means that a browser will not attempt to request the HTTP version of your site if the HTTPS version fails until the max-age is reached.
#### Globally disabling the HSTS Header
HSTS Header can be disabled for all apps by setting the `hsts` property to false after passing the `--global` flag to `nginx:set`. Changing this value globally or on a per-app basis will require rebuilding the nginx config via the `nginx:build-config` command.
```shell
dokku nginx:set --global hsts false
```
Once the HSTS setting is disabled globally, it can be re-enabled on a per-app basis by setting the `hsts` property as normal.
```shell
dokku nginx:set node-js-app hsts true
```

## Regeneratingnginx config
### Changing log path
In certain cases, your app nginx configs may drift from the correct config for your app. You may regenerate the config at any point via the `nginx:build-config` command. This may fail if there are no current web listeners for your app.
> New as of 0.20.1
The path to where log files are stored can be changed by calling the `nginx:set` command with the following options:
The defaults should not be changed without verifying that the paths will be writeable by nginx. However, this setting is useful for enabling or disabling logging by setting the values to `off`.
```shell
dokku nginx:build-config node-js-app
dokku nginx:set node-js-app access-log-path off
dokku nginx:set node-js-app error-log-path off
```
## Validating nginx configs
It may be desired to validate an nginx config outside of the deployment process. To do so, run the `nginx:validate` command. With no arguments, this will validate all app nginx configs, one at a time. A minimal wrapper nginx config is generated for each app's nginx config, upon which `nginx -t` will be run.
The default value may be set by passing an empty value for the option:
```shell
dokku nginx:validate
dokku nginx:set node-js-app access-log-path
dokku nginx:set node-js-app error-log-path
```
As app nginx configs are actually executed within a shared context, it is possible for an individual config to be invalid when being validated standalone but _also_ be valid within the global server context. As such, the exit code for the `nginx:validate` command is the exit code of `nginx -t` against the server's real nginx config.
In all cases, the nginx config must be regenerated after setting the above values.
The `nginx:validate` command also takes an optional `--clean` flag. If specified, invalid nginx configs will be removed.
### Changing log format
> New as of 0.22.0
The format of the access log can be changed by calling the `nginx:set` command as follows:
When proxying requests to your applications, it may be useful to specify a proxy read timeout. This can be done via the `nginx:set` command as follows:
The default value is `60s`, and all numeric values _must_ have a trailing time value specified (`s` for seconds, `m` for minutes).
The default value may be set by passing an empty value for the option:
```shell
dokku nginx:set node-js-app proxy-read-timeout
```
In all cases, the nginx config must be regenerated after setting the above value.
### Specifying a custom client_max_body_size
> New as of 0.23.0
Users can override the default `client_max_body_size` value - which limits file uploads - via `nginx:set`. Changing this value will only apply to every `server` stanza of the default `nginx.conf.sigil`; users of custom `nginx.conf.sigil` files must update their templates to support the new value.
The default value is empty string, which will result in nginx falling back to any configured, higher-level defaults (or `1m` if unconfigued; all numerical values _must_ have a size unit specified (`k` for kilobytes, `m` for megabytes).
The default value may be set by passing an empty value for the option:
```shell
dokku nginx:set node-js-app client-max-body-size
```
In all cases, the nginx config must be regenerated after setting the above value.
Changing this value when using the PHP buildpack (or any other buildpack that uses an intermediary server) will require changing the value in the server config shipped with that buildpack. Consult your buildpack documentation for further details.
### Showing the nginx config
For debugging purposes, it may be useful to show the nginx config. This can be achieved via the `nginx:show-config` command.
```shell
dokku nginx:show-config node-js-app
```
### Validating nginx configs
It may be desired to validate an nginx config outside of the deployment process. To do so, run the `nginx:validate-config` command. With no arguments, this will validate all app nginx configs, one at a time. A minimal wrapper nginx config is generated for each app's nginx config, upon which `nginx -t` will be run.

## HSTS Header
The [HSTS header](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security) is an HTTP header that can inform browsers that all requests to a given site should be made via HTTPS. Dokku does not, by default, enable this header. It is thus left up to you, the user, to enable it for your site.
The [HSTS header](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security) is an HTTP header that can inform browsers that all requests to a given site should be made via HTTPS. Dokku does enables this header by default for HTTPS requests.
Beware that if you enable the header and a subsequent deploy of your application results in an HTTP deploy (for whatever reason), the way the header works means that a browser will not attempt to request the HTTP version of your site if the HTTPS version fails.

Your application has access to the HTTP headers `X-Forwarded-Proto`, `X-Forwarded-Port` and `X-Forwarded-For`. These headers indicate the protocol of the original request (HTTP or HTTPS), the port number, and the IP address of the client making the request, respectively. The default configuration is for Nginx to set these headers.
If your server runs behind an HTTP/S load balancer, then Nginx will see all requests as coming from the load balancer. If your load balancer sets the `X-Forwarded-` headers, you can tell Nginx to pass these headers from load balancer to your application by using the following [nginx custom template](/docs/configuration/nginx.md#customizing-the-nginx-configuration)
If your server runs behind an HTTP(S) load balancer, then Nginx will see all requests as coming from the load balancer. If your load balancer sets the `X-Forwarded-` headers, you can tell Nginx to pass these headers from load balancer to your application via `nginx:set`:
1. All requests are terminated at the load balancer, and forwarded to Nginx
2. The load balancer is configured to send the `X-Forwarded-` headers (this may be off by default)
If it's possible to make HTTP/S requests directly to Nginx, bypassing the load balancer, or if the load balancer is not configured to set these headers, then it becomes possible for a client to set these headers to arbitrary values.
This could result in security issue, for example, if your application looks at the value of the `X-Forwarded-Proto` to determine if the request was made over HTTPS.

You may also fetch all failed app logs by using the `--all` flag.
```shell

### Docker Log Retention
Docker log retention can be specified via the `logs:set` command by specifying a value for `max-size`. Log retention is set via injected docker options for all applications, but is also available via the `logs-get-property` trigger for alternative schedulers.
```shell
dokku logs:set node-js-app max-size 20m
```
The default value may be set by passing an empty value for the option:
```shell
dokku logs:set node-js-app max-size
```
Valid values include any integer number followed by a unit of measure (`k`, `m`, or `g`) or the string `unlimited`. Setting to `unlimited` will result in Dokku omitting the log option.
The `max-size` property can also be set globally. The global default is `10m`, and the global value is used when no app-specific value is set.
```shell
dokku logs:set --global max-size 20m
```
The default value may be set by passing an empty value for the option.
```shell
dokku logs:set --global max-size
```
### Vector Logging Shipping
> New as of 0.22.6
Vector is an open-source, lightweight and ultra-fast tool for building observability pipelines. Dokku integrates with it for shipping container logs for the `docker-local` scheduler. Users may configure log-shipping on a per-app or global basis, neither of which interfere with the `dokku logs` commands.
#### Starting the Vector container
> Warning: While the default vector image may be updated over time, this will not impact running vector containers. Users are encouraged to view any Dokku and Vector changelogs to ensure their system will continue running as expected.
Vector may be started via the `logs:vector-start` command.
```shell
dokku logs:vector-start
```
This will start a new container named `vector` with Dokku's vector config mounted and ready for use. If a running container already exists, this command will do nothing. Additionally, if a container exists but is not running, this command will attempt to start the container.
While the default vector image is hardcoded, users may specify an alternative via the `--vector-image` flag:
The final volume mount - `/var/log/dokku/apps` - may be used for users that wish to ship logs to a file on disk that may be later logrotated. This directory is owned by the `dokku` user and group, with permissions set to `0755`. At this time, log-rotation is not configured for this directory.
#### Stopping the Vector container
Vector may be stopped via the `logs:vector-stop` command.
```shell
dokku logs:vector-stop
```
The `vector` container will be stopped and removed from the system. If the container is not running, this command will do nothing.
#### Configuring a log sink
Vector uses the concept of log "sinks" to send logs to a given endpoint. Log sinks may be configured globally or on a per-app basis by specifying a `vector-sink` in DSN form with the `logs:set` command. Specifying a sink value will reload any running vector container.
```shell
# setting the sink value in quotes is encouraged to avoid
# issues with ampersand encoding in shell commands
As with app-specific sink settings, the global value may also be cleared by setting no value.
```shell
dokku logs:set --global vector-sink
```
##### Log Sink DSN Format
The DSN form of a sink is as follows:
```
SINK_TYPE://?SINK_OPTIONS
```
Valid values for `SINK_TYPE` include all log vector log sinks, while `SINK_OPTIONS` is a query-string form for the sink's options. The following is a short description on how to set various values:
-`bool`: form: `key=bool`
-`string`: form: `key=string`
-`int`: form: `key=int`
-`[string]`: form: `key[]=string`
-`[int]`: form: `key[]=int`
-`table`: form: `option[key]=value
Please read the [sink documentation](https://vector.dev/docs/reference/sinks/) for your sink of choice to configure the sink as desired.

Cloud Native Buildpacks are an evolution over the Buildpacks technology provided by the Herokuish builder. See the [herokuish buildpacks documentation](/docs/deployment/methods/herokuish.md) for more information on how to clear buildpack build cache for an application.
> Warning: This functionality uses the `pack` cli from the [Cloud Native Buildpacks](https://buildpacks.io) project to build apps. As the integration is experimental in Dokku, it is likely to change over time.
## Usage
To use this builder instead of either `Dockerfile` or `herokuish`, you must set the `DOKKU_CNB_EXPERIMENTAL` environment variable for your app to `1`.
The `pack` cli tool is not included by default with Dokku or as a dependency. It must also be installed as shown on [this page](https://buildpacks.io/docs/tools/pack/).
Builds will proceed with the `pack` cli for the app from then on.
## Caveats
As this functionality is highly experimental, there are a number of caveats. Please note that not all issuesare listed below.
- Specifying specific buildpacks is not currently possible.
- A future release will add support for specifying buildpacks via the `buildpacks` plugin.
- There is currently no way to specify extra arguments for `pack` cli invocations.
- A future release will add support for injecting extra arguments during the build process.
- The default process type is `web`.
- Build cache is stored in Docker volumes instead of on disk. As such, `repo:purge-cache` currently has no effect.
- A future version will add integration with the `repo` plugin.
-`pack` is not currently included with Dokku, nor is it added as a package dependency.
- A future version will include it as a package dependency.
### Customizing the Buildpack stack builder
> New as of 0.23.0
The default stack builder in use by CNB buildpacks in Dokku is based on `heroku/buildpacks`. Users may desire to switch the stack builder to a custom version, either to update the operating system or to customize packages included with the stack builder. This can be performed via the `buildpacks:set-property` command.
The specified stack builder can also be unset by omitting the name of the stack builder when calling `buildpacks:set-property`.
```shell
dokku buildpacks:set-property node-js-app stack

A change in the stack builder value will execute the `post-stack-set` trigger.
Finally, stack builders can be set or unset globally as a fallback. This will take precedence over a globally set `DOKKU_CNB_STACK` environment variable (`heroku/buildpacks` by default).

## Building images with Docker Buildkit
If your Dockerfile is using Docker engine's [buildkit](https://docs.docker.com/develop/develop-images/build_enhancements/) (not to be confused with buildpacks), then the `DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1` environment variable needs to be set. One way to do this is to edit `/etc/environment` on your dokku host and reboot your instance. Note, for complete build log output, you should also set `BUILDKIT_PROGRESS=plain` in the same file.
## Customizing the run command
By default no arguments are passed to `docker run` when deploying the container and the `CMD` or `ENTRYPOINT` defined in the `Dockerfile` are executed.

### Keeping the `.git` directory
By default, Dokku will remove the contents of the `.git` before triggering a build for a given app. This is generally a safe default as shipping the entire source code history of your app in the deployed image artifact is unnecessary as it increases bloat and potentially can leak information if there are any security issues with your app code.
To enable the `.git` directory, run the `git:set` command as follows:
```shell
# on the Dokku host
# keep the .git directory during builds
dokku git:set node-js-app keep-git-dir true

### Initializing an app repository from a remote repository
> The application must exist before the repository can be initialized
A Dokku app repository can be initialized or updated from a remote git repository via the `git:sync` command. This command will either clone or fetch updates from a remote repository and has undefined behavior if the history cannot be fast-fowarded to the referenced repository reference. Any repository that can be cloned by the `dokku` user can be specified.
By default, the Dokku host may not have access to a server containing the remote repository. This can be initialized via the `git:allow-host` command.
```shell
dokku git:allow-host github.com
```
Note that this command is currently not idempotent and may add duplicate entries to the `~dokku/.ssh/known_hosts` file.
### Verifying the cloning public key
In order to clone a remote repository, the remote server should have the Dokku host's public key configured. This plugin does not currently create this key, but if there is one available, it can be shown via the `git:public-key` command.

### Exposed ports
See the [port management documentation](/docs/networking/port-management.md).
See the [port management documentation](/docs/networking/port-management.md) for more information on how Dokku exposes ports for applications and how you can configure these for your app.
Sometimes you need to either inspect running containers or run a one-off command under an application. In those cases, Dokku makes it easy to either connect to a running container or run a fresh container.
## Run a command in an app environment
```
run <app> <cmd> # Run a command in a new container using the current application image
```
The `run` command can be used to run a one-off process for a specific command. This will start a new container and run the desired command within that container. Note that this container will be stay around even after command completes. The container will be the same container as was used to start the currently deployed application.
```shell
# runs `ls -lah` in the `/app` directory of the application `node-js-app`
dokku run node-js-app ls -lah
```
The `run` command can also be used to run a command defined in your Procfile:
```
console: bundle exec racksh
```
```shell
# runs `bundle exec racksh` in the `/app` directory of the application `my-app`
dokku run my-app console
```
If you want to remove the container after a command has started, you can run the following command:
```shell
# don't keep `run` containers around
dokku config:set --global DOKKU_RM_CONTAINER=1
# revert the above setting and keep containers around
dokku config:unset --global DOKKU_RM_CONTAINER
```
You may also use the `--rm-container` or `--rm` Dokku flags to remove the containers automatically:
```shell
dokku --rm-container run node-js-app ls -lah
dokku --rm run node-js-app ls -lah
```
Finally, you may wish to run a container in "detached" mode via the `--detach` Dokku flag. Running a process in detached mode will immediately return a `CONTAINER_ID`. It is up to the user to then further manage this container in whatever manner they see fit, as Dokku will *not* automatically terminate the container.
```shell
dokku --detach run node-js-app ls -lah
# returns the ID of the new container
```
> Note that you may not use the `--rm-container` or `--rm` flags when running containers in detached mode, and attempting to do so will result in the `--detach` flag being ignored.
### Using `run` for cron tasks
You can always use a one-off container to run an application task:
```shell
dokku --rm run node-js-app some-command
dokku --rm-container run node-js-app some-command
```
For tasks that should not be interrupted, run is the *preferred* method of handling cron tasks, as the container will continue running even during a deploy or scaling event. The trade-off is that there will be an increase in memory usage if there are multiple concurrent tasks running.
## Entering existing containers
> New as of 0.4.0
```
enter <app> [<container-type> || --container-id <container-id>] # Connect to a specific app container
```
The `enter` command can be used to enter a running container. The following variations of the command exist:
```shell
dokku enter node-js-app web
dokku enter node-js-app web.1
dokku enter node-js-app --container-id ID
```
Additionally, you can run `enter` with no `<container-type>`. If only a single `<container-type>` is defined in your app, you will be dropped into the only running container. This behavior is not supported when specifying a custom command; as described below.
By default, it runs a `/bin/bash`, but can also be used to run a custom command:
```shell
# just echo hi
dokku enter node-js-app web echo hi
# run a long-running command, as one might for a cron task
dokku enter node-js-app web python script/background-worker.py
```
### Using `enter` for cron tasks
Your Procfile can have the following entry:
```Procfile
cron: sleep infinity
```
With the `cron` process scaled to `1`:
```shell
dokku ps:scale node-js-app cron=1
```
You can now run all your commands in that container:
```shell
dokku enter node-js-app cron some-command
```
Note that you can also run multiple commands at the same time to reduce memory usage, though that may result in polluting the container environment.
For tasks that will properly resume, you *should* use the above method, as running tasks will be interrupted during deploys and scaling events, and subsequent commands will always run with the latest container. Note that if you scale the cron container down, this may interrupt proper running of the task.
## General cron recommendations
Regularly scheduled tasks can be a bit of a pain with Dokku. The following are general recommendations to follow to help ensure successful task runs.
- Use the `dokku` user's crontab.
- If you do not, the `dokku` binary will attempt to execute with `sudo`, and your cron run with fail with `sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified`.
- Add a `MAILTO` environment variable to ship cron emails to yourself.
- Add a `PATH` environment variable or specify the full path to binaries on the host.
- Add a `SHELL` environment variable to specify Bash when running commands.
- Keep your cron tasks in time-sorted order.
- Keep your server time in UTC so you don't need to translate daylight savings time when reading the cronfile.
- Run tasks at the lowest traffic times if possible.
- Use cron to *trigger* jobs, not run them. Use a real queuing system such as rabbitmq to actually process jobs.
- Try to keep tasks quiet so that mails only send on errors.
- Do not silence standard error or standard out. If you silence the former, you will miss failures. Silencing the latter means you should actually make application changes to handle log levels.
- Use a service such as [Dead Man's Snitch](https://deadmanssnitch.com) to verify that cron tasks completed successfully.
- Add lots of comments to your cronfile, including what a task is doing, so that you don't spend time deciphering the file later.
- Place your cronfiles in a pattern such as `/etc/cron.d/APP`.
- Do not use non-ASCII characters in your cronfile names. cron is finicky.
- Remember to have trailing newlines in your cronfile! cron is finicky.
The following is a sample cronfile that you can use for your applications:
```cron
# server cron jobs
MAILTO="mail@dokku.me"
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
SHELL=/bin/bash
# m h dom mon dow username command
# * * * * * dokku command to be executed
# - - - - -
# | | | | |
# | | | | +----- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0)

# | +----------- hour (0 - 23)
# +----------- min (0 - 59)
### HIGH TRAFFIC TIME IS B/W 00:00 - 04:00 AND 14:00 - 23:59
### RUN YOUR TASKS FROM 04:00 - 14:00
### KEEP SORTED IN TIME ORDER
### PLACE ALL CRON TASKS BELOW
# removes unresponsive users from the subscriber list to decrease bounce rates
By default, Dokku will only start a single `web` process - if defined - though process scaling can be managed by the `ps` plugin or [via a custom `DOKKU_SCALE` file](/docs/deployment/process-management.md#manually-managing-process-scaling).
> The `web` proctype is the only proctype that will invoke custom checks as defined by a `CHECKS` file. It is also the only process type that will be launched in a container that is either proxied via nginx or bound to an external port.
## Usage
### Listing processes running in an app container
To find out if your application's containers are running the commands you expect, simply run the `ps` command against that application.
```shell
dokku ps node-js-app
```
### Inspecting app containers
> New as of 0.13.0
A common administrative task to perform is calling `docker inspect` on the containers that are running for an application. This can be an error-prone task to perform, and may also reveal sensitive environment variables if not done correctly. Dokku provides a wrapper around this command via the `ps:inspect` command:
```shell
dokku ps:inspect node-js-app
```
This command will gather all the running container IDs for your application and call `docker inspect`, sanitizing the output data so it can be copy-pasted elsewhere safely.
### Rebuilding applications
There are some Dokku commands which will not automatically rebuild an application's environment, or which can be told to skip a rebuild. For instance, you may wish to run multiple `config:set` commands without a restart so as to speed up configuration. In these cases, you can ultimately trigger an application rebuild using `ps:rebuild`
```shell
dokku ps:rebuild node-js-app
```
You may also rebuild all applications at once, which is useful when enabling/disabling a plugin that modifies all applications:
```shell
dokku ps:rebuildall
```
> The `ps:rebuild` and `ps:rebuildall` commands only work for applications for which there is a source, and thus
> will only always work deterministically for Git-deployed application. Please see
> the [images documentation](/docs/deployment/methods/images.md) and [tar documentation](/docs/deployment/methods/tar.md)
> in for more information concerning rebuilding those applications.
### Restarting applications
Applications can be restarted, which is functionally identical to calling the `release_and_deploy` function on an application. Please note that any linked containers *must* be started before the application in order to have a successful boot.
```shell
dokku ps:restart node-js-app
```
You may also trigger a restart on all applications at one time:
```shell
dokku ps:restartall
```
### `ps:scale` command
Dokku can also manage scaling itself via the `ps:scale` command. This command can be used to scale multiple process types at the same time.
```shell
dokku ps:scale node-js-app web=1
```
Multiple process types can be scaled at once:
```shell
dokku ps:scale node-js-app web=1worker=1
```
Issuing the `ps:scale` command with no process type argument will output the current scaling settings for an application:
```shell
dokku ps:scale node-js-app
```
```
-----> Scaling for node-js-app
-----> proctype qty
-----> -------- ---
-----> web 1
-----> worker 1
```
### Stopping applications
Deployed applications can be stopped using the `ps:stop` command. This turns off all running containers for an application, and will result in a **502 Bad Gateway** response for the default nginx proxy implementation.
```shell
dokku ps:stop node-js-app
```
You may also stop all applications at once:
```shell
dokku ps:stopall
```
### Starting applications
All stopped containers can be started using the `ps:start` command. This is similar to running `ps:restart`, except no action will be taken if the application containers are running.
```shell
dokku ps:start node-js-app
```
### Starting all applications
In some cases, it may be necessary to start all applications from scratch - e.g. if all Docker containers have been manually stopped. This can be executed via the `ps:startall` command, which supports parallelism in the same manner `ps:rebuildall`, `ps:restartall`, and `ps:stopall` do.
Be aware that no action will be taken if the application containers are running.
```shell
dokku ps:startall
```
## Restart policies
> New as of 0.7.0
By default, Dokku will automatically restart containers that exit with a non-zero status up to 10 times via the [on-failure Docker restart policy](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#restart-policies-restart).
### Showing the current restart policy
The `ps:restart-policy` command will show the currently configured restart policy for an application. The default policy is `on-failure:10`
```shell
dokku ps:restart-policy node-js-app
```
```
=====> node-js-app restart-policy:
on-failure:10
```
### Setting the restart policy
You can configure this via the `ps:set-restart-policy` command:
```shell
# always restart an exited container
dokku ps:set-restart-policy node-js-app always
```
```
-----> Setting restart policy: always
```
```shell
# never restart an exited container
dokku ps:set-restart-policy node-js-app no
```
```
-----> Setting restart policy: no
```
```shell
# only restart it on Docker restart if it was not manually stopped
Restart policies have no bearing on server reboot, and Dokku will always attempt to restart your applications at that point unless they were manually stopped.
## Manually managing process scaling
You can optionally *commit* a `DOKKU_SCALE` file to the root of your repository - *not* to the `/home/dokku/APP` directory. Dokku expects this file to contain one line for every process defined in your Procfile.
Example:
```Procfile
web=1
worker=2
```
If it is not committed to the repository, the `DOKKU_SCALE` file will otherwise be automatically generated based on your `ps:scale` settings.
> *NOTE*: Dokku will always use the `DOKKU_SCALE` file that ships with the repo to override any local settings.

## Clients
## Official Client
You may optionally use a client to connect to your Dokku server. Most clients use the configured `git remote` to locate the Dokku server, though some allow for overriding this via an environment variable or flag.
You may optionally use the official client when connecting to the Dokku server.
Please refer to the [clients](/docs/community/clients.md) list for more details.
Of all methods, this is the *most* official method of interacting with your Dokku installation. It is a bash script that interacts with a remote Dokku installation via `ssh`. It is available in `contrib/dokku_client.sh` in the root of the Dokku repository.
It can be installed either via the [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) package manager (macOS only), or manually.
### Installation via Homebrew
To install, simply run the following command:
```shell
brew install dokku/repo/dokku
```
### Manual installation
To install manually, simply clone the Dokku repository down and add the `dokku` alias pointing at the script:
```shell
git clone git@github.com:dokku/dokku.git ~/.dokku
# optional: make sure that the dokku_client.sh version matches your Dokku version
cd ~/.dokku
git checkout <tag/branch>
# add the following to either your
# .bashrc, .bash_profile, or .profile file
aliasdokku='$HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
```
Alternatively, if using another shell such as **zsh**, create an alias command which invokes the script using **bash**:
```shell
# zsh: add the following to either .zshenv or .zshrc
# fish: add the following to ~/.config/fish/config.fish
alias dokku 'bash $HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
# csh: add the following to .cshrc
alias dokku 'bash $HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
```
### Usage
All commands have the application name automatically set via the `--app` flag on the remote server, and thus the app name does not need to be specified manually for core plugins.
The client supports several environment variables:
-`DOKKU_HOST` (default: `dokku` git remote): Used to interact with a specific remote server. Can be overriden via `--remote` flag.
-`DOKKU_PORT` (default: `22`): Used to specify a port to connect to the Dokku server on.
It also supports several flags (all flags unspecified here are passed as is to the server):
-`--app`: Override the remote app in use.
-`--trace`: Enable trace mode.
-`--remote`: Override the remote server.
-`--global`: Unsets the "app" value. May not be supported for the specified command.
In addition, the following commands have special local side-effects:
-`apps:create`:
- If no local `--app` flag is specified or detected from a `dokku` git remote, a random name is generated and used for the app.
- The `dokku` git remote is set if not already set.
-`apps:destroy`:
- Removes the local `dokku` git remote if set.

### Templating Checks Files
> New as of 0.22.5
An app's `CHECKS` file is sent through a single pass of the [`sigil`](https://github.com/gliderlabs/sigil/) templating tool. This enables usage of Golang templating within application `CHECKS` files. In addition to general templating access, access to app environment variables is also allowed via the `var` function:
```
{{ var "SOME_ENV_VAR" }}
```
This may be useful if certain zero-downtime checks require access to an app-specific value, such as a domain name.
### Check settings
The default behavior is to wait for `5` seconds before running the checks, to timeout the checks after `30` seconds, and to attempt the checks `5` times. If the checks fail `5` times, the deployment is considered failed and the old container will continue serving traffic.

A plugin can be a simple implementation of [triggers](/docs/development/plugin-triggers.md) or can implement a command structure of its own. Dokku has no restrictions on the language in which a plugin is implemented; it only cares that the plugin implements the appropriate [commands](/docs/development/plugin-creation.md#command-api) or [triggers](/docs/development/plugin-triggers.md) for the API. **NOTE:** any file that implements triggers or uses the command API must be executable.

## Compilable plugins (Golang, Java(?), C, etc.)
When developing a plugin, you must implement the `install` trigger such that it outputs the built executable(s) using a directory structure that implements the plugin's desired command and/or triggers the API. See the [smoke-test-plugin](https://github.com/dokku/smoke-test-plugin) for an example.

## Command API
There are 3 main integration points: `commands`, `subcommands/default`, and `subcommands/<command-name>`.
### `commands`
Primarily used to supply the plugin's usage/help output. (i.e. [plugin help](https://github.com/dokku/dokku/tree/master/plugins/plugin/commands)).
### `subcommands/default`
Implements the plugin's default command behavior. (i.e. [`dokku plugin`](https://github.com/dokku/dokku/tree/master/plugins/plugin/subcommands/default)).
### `subcommands/<command-name>`
Implements the additional command interface and will translate to `dokku plugin:cmd` on the command line. (i.e. [`dokku plugin:install`](https://github.com/dokku/dokku/tree/master/plugins/plugin/subcommands/install)).
# Plugin Building Tips
## Always create a `plugin.toml`
The `plugin.toml` file is used to describe the plugin in help output, and helps users understand the purpose of the plugin. This _must_ have a description and a version. The version _should_ be bumped at every plugin release.
```toml
[plugin]
description="dokku example plugin"
version="0.1.0"
[plugin.config]
```
## Files should be executable
Commands, subcommands, triggers and source shell scripts should all be executable. On a Unix-like machine, the following command can be used to make them executable:
```shell
chmod +x path/to/file
```
Non-executable commands, subcommands, and triggers will be ignored.
## Use the `pipefail` bash option
Consider whether to include the `set -eo pipefail` option. Look at the following example:
dokku_log_fail "user/repo image not found... Did you run 'dokku plugin:install'?"
fi
```
If `user/repo` doesn't exist, Dokku exits just before the `awk` command and the `dokku_log_fail` message will never go to `STDOUT`. printed with echo. The `set -e` option should be used in this case.
Here is the `help` entry for `set`:
```
help set
Options:
-e Exit immediately if a command exits with a non-zero status.
-o option-name
pipefail the return value of a pipeline is the status of
the last command to exit with a non-zero status,
or zero if no command exited with a non-zero status
```
## Support trace mode
Trace mode is useful for getting debugging output from plugins when the `--trace` flag is specified or `dokku trace:on` is triggered. This should be done at the top of each shell script:
```shell
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -eo pipefail
[[$DOKKU_TRACE]]&&set -x
```
In the above example, the third line enables bash's debug mode, which prints command traces before executing command.
## Verify the existence of dependencies
If a plugin depends on a specific command-line tool, check whether that tool exists before utilizing it. Either `command -v` or `which` may be used to do so:
```shell
# `command -v` example
if ! command -v "nginx"&>/dev/null;then
dokku_log_fail "Missing nginx, install it"
fi
# `which` example
if ! which nginx >/dev/null 2>&1;then
dokku_log_fail "Missing nginx, install it"
fi
```
In cases where a dependency should be installed before the plugin can be used at all, use the `dependencies` plugin trigger to install the dependency.
## Implement a help command
For plugins which expose commands, implement a `help` command. This may be empty, but should contain a listing of all available commands.
Commas - `,` - are used in the help output for columnizing output. Verify that the plugin conforms to the spec by running `dokku help --all` and manually verifying the output.
See the sample plugin below for an example.
## Namespace commands
All commands *should* be namespaced. In cases where a core plugin is overriden, the plugin _may_ utilize the a namespace in use by the core, but generally this should be avoided to reduce confusion as to where the command is implemented.
## Implement a proper catch-all command
As of 0.3.3, a catch-all should be implemented that exits with a `DOKKU_NOT_IMPLEMENTED_EXIT` code. This allows Dokku to output a `command not found` message.
See the sample plugin below for an example.
## Set app config without restarting
In the case that a plugin needs to set app configuration settings and a restart should be avoided (default Heroku-style behavior) these "internal" commands provide this functionality:
To allow other plugins access to (some of) a plugin's functionality, functions can expose by including a `functions` file in the plugin for others to source. All functions in that file should be considered publicly accessible by other plugins.
Any functions that must be kept private should reside in the plugin's `trigger/` or `commands/` directories. Other files may also be used to hide private functions; the official convention for hiding private functions is to place them an `internal-functions` file.
## Use helper functions to fetch app images
> New as of 0.4.0
Dokku allows image tagging and deployment of tagged images. This means hard-coding the `$IMAGE` as `dokku/$APP` is no longer sufficient.
Plugins should use `get_running_image_tag()` and `get_app_image_name()` as sourced from `common/functions`. See the [plugin triggers](/docs/development/plugin-triggers.md) doc for examples.
> **Note:** This is only for plugins that are not `pre/post-build-*` plugins
## Use `$DOCKER_BIN` instead of `docker` directly
> New as of 0.17.5
Certain systems may require a wrapper function around the `docker` binary for proper execution. Utilizing the `$DOCKER_BIN` environment variable when calling docker for those functions is preferred.
```shell
# good
"$DOCKER_BIN" container run -d $IMAGE /bin/bash -e -c "$COMMAND"
# bad
docker run -d $IMAGE /bin/bash -e -c "$COMMAND"
```
## Include labels for all temporary containers and images
> New as of 0.5.0
As of 0.5.0, labels are used to help cleanup intermediate containers with `dokku cleanup`. Plugins that create containers and images should add the correct labels to the `build`, `commit`, and `run` docker commands.
Note that where possible, a label `com.dokku.app-name=$APP` - where `$APP` is the name of the app - should also be included. This enables `dokku cleanup APP` to cleanup the specific containers for a given app.
"$DOCKER_BIN" container run "--label=com.dokku.app-name=${APP}"$DOKKU_GLOBAL_RUN_ARGS ...
```
## Copy files from the built image using `copy_from_image`
Avoid copying files from running containers as these files may change over time. Instead copy files from the image built during the deploy process. This can be done via the `copy_from_image` helper function. This will correctly handle various corner cases in copying files from an image.
Files are copied from the `/app` directory - for images built via buildpacks - or `WORKDIR` - for images built via Dockerfile.
## Avoid calling the `dokku` binary directly
> New as of 0.6.0
Plugins should **not** call the `dokku` binary directly from within plugins because clients using the `--app` argument are potentially broken when doing so.
Plugins should instead source the `functions` file for a given plugin when attempting to call Dokku internal functions. In cases where plugin functions cannot be sourced (eg if a plugin is implemented in Golang), then call the relevant [plugin triggers](/docs/development/plugin-triggers.md) instead.
# Sample plugin
The below plugin is a dummy `dokku hello` plugin.
Each plugin requires a `plugin.toml` descriptor file with the following required fields:
# Use the following lines to reorder args into "$cmd $DOKKU_APP_NAME $@""
localargv=("$@")
[[${argv[0]}=="$cmd"]]&&shift1
[[ -n $DOKKU_APP_NAME]]&&set -- $DOKKU_APP_NAME$@
set -- $cmd$@
##
[[ -z $2]]&& dokku_log_fail "Please specify an app to run the command on"
verify_app_name "$2"
localAPP="$2";
cmd-hello-world(){
declaredesc="prints Hello world"
declarecmd="hello:world"
[["$1"=="$cmd"]]&&shift1
echo"Hello world"
}

# A few notes:
- Remember to `chmod +x` your executable files
- Always support `DOKKU_TRACE` as per the 2nd line of the above example
- If your command depends on an application, include a check for whether that application exists (see the above example)
- You must implement a `help` command, though you may leave it empty. Also, you must use commas (`,`) in the command syntax to support output in columns
- Commands **should** be namespaced
- As of 0.3.3, a catch-all should be implemented that exits with a `DOKKU_NOT_IMPLEMENTED_EXIT` code. This allows Dokku to output a `command not found` message.
- Consider whether you want to include the `set -eo pipefail` option. Look at the following example :
dokku_log_fail "user/repo image not found... Did you run 'dokku plugin:install'?"
fi
```
If `user/repo` doesn't exist, Dokku exits just before the `awk` command and the `dokku_log_fail` message will never go to `STDOUT`. printed with echo. You would want to use `set -e` in this case.
Here is the `help` entry for `set`:
```
help set
Options:
-e Exit immediately if a command exits with a non-zero status.
-o option-name
pipefail the return value of a pipeline is the status of
the last command to exit with a non-zero status,
or zero if no command exited with a non-zero status
```
- In the case that your plugin needs to set application configuration settings and you want to avoid having to restart (default Heroku-style behavior) these "internal" commands provide this functionality:
- If you want to allow other plugins access to (some of) your plugin's functionality, you can expose this by including a `functions` file in your plugin for others to source
- You should consider all functions in that file to be publicly accessible by other plugins
- Any functions you want to keep private should reside in your plugin's `trigger/` or `commands/` directories
- As of 0.4.0, Dokku allows image tagging and deployment of tagged images
- This means hard-coding the `$IMAGE` as `dokku/$APP` is no longer sufficient
- You should now use `get_running_image_tag()` and `get_app_image_name()` as sourced from `common/functions` (see the [plugin triggers](/docs/development/plugin-triggers.md) doc for examples). **Note:** This is only for plugins that are not `pre/post-build-*` plugins
- As of 0.5.0, we use container labels to help cleanup intermediate containers with `dokku cleanup
- This means that if you manually call `docker run`, you should include `$DOKKU_GLOBAL_RUN_ARGS` to ensure your intermediate containers are labeled correctly
- As of 0.6.0, you should not **not** call the `dokku` binary directly from within plugins because clients using the `--app` argument are potentially broken when doing so (as well as other issues)
- You should instead source the `functions` file for a given plugin when attempting to call Dokku internal functions
Dokku has a full test suite to assist in quick iterating development. These tests include a linter using [shellcheck](https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck), functional unit tests using the [bats testing framework](https://github.com/sstephenson/bats), and a deployment suite of example apps that use the most popular languages and frameworks.

## Skipping Herokuish installation
The Herokuish package is recommended but not required if not using Heroku buildpacks for deployment. Debian-based OS users can run the bootstrap installer via `sudo DOKKU_NO_INSTALL_RECOMMENDS=true bash bootstrap.sh` to skip the dependency. Please note that this will _also_ skip installation of other recommended dependencies.
