Staticman public instance not available

[alexwaibel]

Trying to add the user @staticmanapp as a contributor returns no results and the user page for staticmanapp is not available.

The public instance of the api is still running but has not been verified to be functional. https://api.staticman.net

Will consider deprecating support for public instances and instead instruct users on how to host their own for free elsewhere such as Heroku.

Edit: The GitHub app appears to be up.. This one seems to be what those using the publicly hosted version are having success with.

@eduardoboucas I have a lot of questions about the deployment process for all of the public interfaces to this app

• what is hosting the public API?
• Is the staticman github app found here running that same instance?
• Is the public website also hosted there?
• Are these running some kind of continuous deployment?

Public instance works for me (ev subdomain,v3). See <https://github.com/sukiletxe/sukiletxe.eu/pulls> .

@sukiletxe Interesting. From your repo it appears you're using the dev.staticman.net domain. From what I've read in this issue you should switch to the api.staticman.net domain if possible. Thank you for the reply though, as many reports of working instances as I can find will help me best understand the current state of this app since builds seem to have been broken for a while based on Travis.

I can answer the public website question, it’s the staticman.net repo served using github pages and redirected using cname (or it seems so at least)

what is hosting the public API?

Heroku. It's currently on a free tier, so it very quickly reaches capacity.

Is the staticman github app found here running that same instance?

Yes.

Is the public website also hosted there?

As @sukiletxe rightly pointed out, the codebase of the website is on this repo and it's running from GitHub Pages.

Are these running some kind of continuous deployment?

Yes. Anything that is merged to master on this repo will be deployed to api.staticman.net. Anything merged to dev will be deployed to dev.staticman.net. Anything merged to master on the website repo will be deployed to staticman.net.
