02 / Guide

How PHP goes to production.

  1. 01 /

    Connect the repository

    Composer dependencies are installed and Nginx serves your web root through PHP-FPM.

  2. 02 /

    Attach a database

    Add managed MySQL; credentials are injected as environment variables.

  3. 03 /

    Go live

    The app is health-checked and served over HTTPS.

03 / Configuration

Environment variables.

Set these in project settings. Values are never written to build logs.

04 / Included

What every deploy gets.

  • Stack detection

    Deployxa reads your repository and picks the runtime, build and start commands. Override any of them in project settings.

  • Isolated builds

    Every push builds in its own sandbox with cached dependencies and layers.

  • Managed databases

    Attach PostgreSQL, MySQL or Redis and the connection details are injected as environment variables.

  • HTTPS by default

    Every deploy gets a deployxa.online URL with a Let's Encrypt certificate; custom domains too.

  • Health-checked releases

    Traffic only switches to a release that passes its health check, and earlier releases stay available for rollback.

  • Push to deploy

    Connect GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket and each push to your branch ships a new release.
