Embedchain has a nice and simple abstraction on top of the Fly.io tools to let developers deploy RAG application to fly.io platform seamlessly. Follow the instructions given below to deploy your first application quickly:

​
Step-1: Install flyctl command line

brew install flyctl
Once you have installed the fly.io cli tool, signup/login to their platform using the following command: 
fly auth signup
In case you run into issues, refer to official fly.io docs.

​
Step-2: Create RAG app

We provide a command line utility called ec in embedchain that inherits the template for fly.io platform and help you deploy the app. Follow the instructions to create a fly.io app using the template provided:
Install embedchain
pip install embedchain
Create application
mkdir my-rag-app
ec create --template=fly.io
This will generate a directory structure like this: 
├── Dockerfile
├── app.py
├── fly.toml
├── .env
├── .env.example
├── embedchain.json
└── requirements.txt
Feel free to edit the files as required.
  • Dockerfile: Defines the steps to setup the application
  • app.py: Contains API app code
  • fly.toml: fly.io config file
  • .env: Contains environment variables for production
  • .env.example: Contains dummy environment variables (can ignore this file)
  • embedchain.json: Contains embedchain specific configuration for deployment (you don’t need to configure this)
  • requirements.txt: Contains python dependencies for your application

​
Step-3: Test app locally

You can run the app locally by simply doing:
Run locally
pip install -r requirements.txt
ec dev

​
Step-4: Deploy to fly.io

You can deploy to fly.io using the following command:
Deploy app
ec deploy
Once this step finished, it will provide you with the deployment endpoint where you can access the app live. It will look something like this (Swagger docs): You can also check the logs, monitor app status etc on their dashboard by running command fly dashboard.
