Runix
Runix is an infrastructure management platform: one control plane manages a fleet of hosts through lightweight agents that dial out over WebSocket (NAT-friendly — nothing connects in to your servers). Manage Docker, Compose, systemd units and native daemons; browse and edit files; open terminals and consoles; schedule tasks; and update the whole fleet from the UI.
This repository holds the release binaries and the installer. The source lives in a separate repository.
Install
One command sets up a host. Run it as root; it asks what the host should be
(control plane, agent, or both), checks prerequisites, installs under
/opt/runix, and wires up systemd.
curl -fsSL https://vcs.astra-dev.online/svesnav/runix/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sudo sh
Prefer to pin a version, or your instance still requires sign-in to read raw files? Use the release asset instead — it downloads without a login:
curl -fsSL https://vcs.astra-dev.online/svesnav/runix/releases/download/v0.5.0/install.sh | sudo sh -s -- --role all-in-one
Roles
| Command | What it installs |
|---|---|
sudo sh install.sh --role all-in-one |
Control plane and an agent on this host (single-host setup) |
sudo sh install.sh --role server |
Control plane only |
sudo sh install.sh --role agent --url https://runix.example.com --token <token> |
An agent that joins an existing control plane |
The all-in-one and server roles can provision PostgreSQL in Docker for you
(--db docker) or use one you already run (--dsn postgres://…). Add -y
for an unattended install that takes sensible defaults. sh install.sh --help lists every flag.
Everything lives under one directory:
/opt/runix/bin/ runix-server, runix-agent
/opt/runix/etc/ server.env, agent.env (0600 — secrets live here)
/opt/runix/postgres/ docker-compose.yml, data/ (control plane)
/opt/runix/agent/ supervised daemon state (agent)
Update
Re-running the installer upgrades in place — binaries are replaced and services restarted, while your configuration (above all the JWT and encryption secrets) is preserved:
curl -fsSL https://vcs.astra-dev.online/svesnav/runix/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sudo sh -- -y
Or update from the UI: an administrator sees an Updates page that checks this repository for the latest release and updates the control plane and each agent with one click. Point a control plane at this repository with:
RUNIX_UPDATE_API_BASE=https://vcs.astra-dev.online/api/v1
RUNIX_UPDATE_REPO=svesnav/runix
Releases
Each release publishes, for linux/amd64 and linux/arm64:
runix-server_linux_<arch>— the control planerunix-agent_linux_<arch>— the agentinstall.sh— this installerSHA256SUMS— checksums; the installer verifies every download against it
Binaries are built automatically from source on tag by the CI runner and published here and to the source repository.
