To install the latest version of Faable CLI:
npm i -g @faable/faablefaable deploy auto-detects the runtime from the files in your project (no
config needed in the common case):
| Detected by | Runtime |
|---|---|
package.json | Node.js (Next.js, Vite, Astro, Gatsby, CRA, Vue, Angular, …) |
requirements.txt / pyproject.toml / Pipfile | Python |
Dockerfile | Your own image (any language) |
A project with a
package.jsonis always treated as Node. To deploy a Python backend that also has apackage.json, ship aDockerfileinstead.
SPA frameworks are built and served automatically. If the project has no
start script, the built output is served statically (e.g. Vite → npx vite preview, CRA/Vue/Angular → serve). If it defines a start script (custom SSR,
Next.js, Nuxt, Remix, …), that command is used.
The start command is detected from your framework:
| Framework | Detected from | Start command |
|---|---|---|
| Django | manage.py + the package with wsgi.py | gunicorn <pkg>.wsgi:application |
| FastAPI / ASGI | fastapi/uvicorn/starlette dep | uvicorn <module>:app |
| Flask | flask dep | gunicorn <module>:app |
Dependencies are installed inside the image from requirements.txt,
pyproject.toml or Pipfile. gunicorn/uvicorn are installed automatically
if missing.
Pin the Python version with a runtime.txt (python-3.11.3), a
.python-version, or requires-python in pyproject.toml.
When auto-detection doesn't fit, set the commands explicitly:
faable.json—{ "buildCommand": "...", "startCommand": "..." }Procfile— aweb:line, e.g.web: gunicorn app:app --bind 0.0.0.0:$PORT
Precedence: faable.json → Procfile → auto-detection. The container listens on
$PORT (80).
