Apps

Manage your deployed applications — start, stop, reload, scale, and monitor.

Apps List

The Apps page shows all your deployed applications.

Column	Description
Name	App name (matches plitho.yml name)
Status	RUNNING, STOPPED, or DEPLOYING
Runtime	node, python, static, or shell
Port	The port the app listens on
Revision	Git commit hash (first 7 chars)

Creating an App

1. Go to Apps → NEW APP
2. Enter a name for your app
3. Click CREATE APP

This creates a git remote. Add it to your repo:

git remote add plitho ssh://plitho@your-server:2222/myappname

App Detail

Click Manage on any app to see its detail page.

Tabs

Tab	What's there
Overview	App status, actions, process info
Domain	Custom domains and SSL
Resources	CPU and memory limits
Environment	Environment variables
SSH	SSH keys for git push access
Logs	Real-time log streaming
Deployments	Deployment history

Actions

Action	What it does
Stop	Stops the app process
Start	Starts or redeploys the app
Reload	Restarts the app process

Scaling

Scale the number of workers for a process:

ssh -p 2222 plitho@your-server scale myapp web=4

Or via the API:

curl -X POST https://your-server/api/apps/myapp/scale?web=4

Logs

View real-time logs from your app:

1. Go to your app → Logs tab
2. Logs stream automatically
3. Use the filter to search output

Logs survive redeployments — you can always see what your app outputted.

Metrics

View CPU and memory usage over time:

1. Go to your app → Metrics tab
2. Select a time range (1 hour, 6 hours, 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days)
3. View per-process charts

Persistent Data

Your app has a persistent data/ directory that survives redeployments. Use it for:

• Uploaded files
• SQLite databases
• Cache files
• Any data that shouldn't be lost on deploy

Access it in your app code as the current working directory, or via SSH.
