From an image

Run a pre-built container image without building anything: your own image from a registry, or an off-the-shelf one like nginx:alpine.

Deploy an image

From a project, New deployment:

Choose the Existing image build strategy.
Enter the image reference, such as ghcr.io/you/app:1.4.2.
Set the internal port the image listens on, its memory and CPU limits, and a health check path if it has one.
Create it, then press Redeploy on its page to start the first deploy. (A new deployment is pending until then.)

Or from the CLI:

mangrovectl deployment create --project my-app --name Web --slug web \
  --strategy image --image-ref ghcr.io/you/app:1.4.2 --internal-port 8080
mangrovectl deploy --deployment 12

Mangrove pulls the image and runs it through the same health-checked swap as a built deployment.

Updating

Redeploy pulls the configured reference again, so a moving tag like :latest picks up a newer image. To pin a version, use a specific tag or a digest (app@sha256:...).

Private registries

Mangrove runs docker pull as the mangrove user. To pull from a private registry, log that user’s Docker client in on the box:

sudo -u mangrove HOME=/var/lib/mangrove docker login ghcr.io

Good to know

An image deployment needs no linked repository, so Redeploy and self-healing retries always work for it.
Most templates are image deployments with the wiring done for you.
