Say hello to Fly 0.0.144-beta-3
So what’s new in this beta…
Well, let’s start with --nowrite, a new flag for the init command. Now you may already know that you can have the same application deployed with different names. Well, --nowrite makes that easier by going through the creation of an app slot, but not the configuring of networking or builders, and it doesn’t write anything to fly.toml. The apps name is written to a file called fly.alias which is a list of aliases the app goes under. Remember to use -a to address these mirror applications. This is a small part of the work we’re doing to support different build and deploy paths.
Also, the domains and dns-records commands are back, well the old beta dns command became dns-records. If you want to know more, head over to Feature Preview: DNS + domains where we’ll be updating you on how to use them - if you have questions about the fly/flyctl part of it, ask here…
These and lots of polishing make up beta 3. Enjoy and do let us know how you get on. We don’t ship our tools with any telemetry; we do rely on you to let us know how you are finding the betas.
Thanks!
