How to Create App Templates (Admin)

Creating App Templates

As an admin, you can create app templates that users deploy from the marketplace. Templates define the Docker image, default configuration, and resource requirements.

Creating a New Template

1. Navigate to Admin → App Templates.
2. Click New Template.
3. Fill in the template details:

• Name — Template display name.
• Slug — URL-friendly identifier (auto-generated from name).
• Description — Detailed description for the marketplace listing.
• Category — Template category (CMS, tools, e-commerce, etc.).
• Docker Image — The base Docker image to use.
• Default Environment Variables — Pre-configured variables that users can override.
• Ports — Which port the application exposes.
• Min Plan — Minimum required plan tier.

GitHub Integration

Connect your template to a GitHub repository:

• Select a connected GitHub App repository.
• Define the branch to deploy from.
• The template can auto-build from the repository's Dockerfile.

Publishing

1. After saving the template, it's in draft mode.
2. Review all settings and test a deployment.
3. Click Publish to make it available in the marketplace.
4. Published templates are immediately visible to all users.

Editing Templates

Update an existing template:

• Click the template from the App Templates list.
• Modify any fields and click Save.
• Changes to published templates take effect immediately for new deployments.
• Existing deployments are not affected by template changes.
