Hosting Kinetic

Here we'll show you how you can deploy your own Kinetic instance to an online service such as Render or Heroku.

You can also deploy directly onto a server using Azure, Digital Ocean, etc.

#What Do I Need To Run Kinetic?

To run an instance of Kinetic, you'll need to have 3 services set up and running:

• Kinetic
• PostgreSQL
• Redis
• Solana RPC Provider

If that seems complicated, don't worry! It couldn't be easier. To get you going, we've created some lovely starter kits!

#Starter Kits

Created to help get you up and running as quickly as possible, these projects can be a great reference point when you get stuck or even a starter for your own project. Happy coding!

#Using Docker Compose

Docker Compose can be used to run multiple containers in a single Docker application. An example of this is our Kinetic Docker Compose starter.

If you are using Docker Compose with your deployed server, you may need to install an additional Compose Plugin.

See here for details.

#Environment Variables

Kinetic handles some of it's configuration via environment variables you can include as you set up your deployment. See more here:

#Kinetic Manager

Once you've deployed Kinetic, you'll be able to access Kinetic Manager to handle further configuration and app settings, etc

#What If I Get Stuck?

Pop into the kinetic-hosting channel on Discord and we'll give you a hand.
