Hi friends, first time Fly user here. Trying to understand the black magic. I was able to easily launch my Python project with flyctl launch
, and it just works. Pretty incredible! I didn’t need to specify a Dockerfile to build my image, everything just magically worked.
So now I’m wondering…
- How did Fly choose a Python image and which did it choose?
- Do I need to manually “relaunch” my application to get newer images? Or;
- Does Fly periodically rehydrate my underlying image?
I want to make sure my image is secure. If it’s as simple as “periodically execute fly launch to rehydrate your containers” that’s fine. Everything is so easy it makes me concerned!
