Entropy is an extensible infrastructure orchestration and application deployment tool. Entropy provides features required for deploying and managing complex applications like resource versioning, config schema versioning, rollbacks dry runs etc.
- No Dependency: Written in Go. It compiles into a single binary with no external dependency.
- Extensible: Entropy provides framework to easily write and deploy applications to your choice of cloud
- Runtime: Entropy can run inside VMs or containers with minimal memory footprint.
Refer docs for more on capabilites, internals, etc.
Install Entropy on macOS, Windows, Linux, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and on any machine.
Download the appropriate version for your platform from releases page. Once
downloaded, the binary can be run from anywhere. You don’t need to install it into a global location. This works well
for shared hosts and other systems where you don’t have a privileged account. Ideally, you should install it somewhere
in your PATH for easy use. /usr/local/bin is the most probable location.
# Install entropy (requires homebrew installed)
$ brew install goto/tap/entropy
# Check for installed entropy version
$ entropy versionEntropy typically runs as a service and requires a Postgres to store its state.
Refer entropy.yaml for sample configuration values.
- You can override the configurations by directly editing the
entropy.yamlfile or by setting environment variables. - Environment variable name will be uppercased version of the complete path in YAML along with
.replaced with_character. For example, theservice.hostcan be overriden by settingSERVICE_HOST. - It is also possible to create a copy of the sample configuration file with different name and provide that path to entropy.
