Phelix documentation

What is Phelix?

Phelix is a Go-based CLI for managing the complete lifecycle of Go and Rust applications. It combines local process management with versioned releases, encrypted configuration, safe deployment strategies, container builds, and multi-server observability.

Quick start

# Build and run the current project
phelix build myapp --port 8080

# Rebuild without downtime
phelix rebuild myapp --blue-green

# Inspect and recover
phelix list
phelix rollback myapp

Core workflow

1. 1
   Build

   Auto-detect Go or Rust, compile the project, create a numbered version, and start the app.
2. 2
   Deploy

   Use classic replacement, blue-green switching, or rolling replicas.
3. 3
   Observe

   Inspect status, logs, health checks, server metrics, and proxy routing.
4. 4
   Recover

   Roll back to a retained version and restore its paired encrypted environment snapshot.
