Services

A service is a deployable workload within a project.

Deploy Types

Repository - Builds from a git repository using a Dockerfile.

Image - Pulls a pre-built Docker image.

PORT Handling

Frost sets the PORT environment variable (default: 8080). Your app should listen on this port.

For images with hardcoded ports, set container_port in service settings to match.

Inter-Service Communication

Services in the same project communicate using the service name as hostname:

http://api:8080/health
