Farmer is a PaaS that offers a simple API to create, deploy and manage small SaaS projects.

Farmer comes with a installer script with will bring a complete Farmer up in a few minutes.
You only need an Ubuntu 14.04 and git client installed on your server.

As simple as running commands below:

git clone https://github.com/farmer-project/farmer.git
sudo hack/install

How does it work?

Farmer works very simple for almost any small project.

1. You put a .farmer.yml in root of your git-hosted project. (Read more about .farmer.yml)
2. You use farmer-cli to create a single instance of your project with a unique name.
3. You assign a domain to you box using farmer-cli.
4. Your web app is up and running.

You can repeat this process for as many projects and as many boxes as you like. That's why it can be used as a small PaaS for your SaaS :)
