wheels deploy app start

docker start existing containers for the given version. Useful after a stop, or to resurrect a previously-pruned container.

wheels deploy app start --release=<v> [--role=<name>] [--destination=<name>] [--dry-run]
FlagDescription
--release=<v>Required. Must match an existing container’s version label.
--role=<name>Limit to one role.
--destination=<name>Overlay destination config.
--dry-runPrint the commands without executing.

Emits docker start <service>-<role>-<version> on every host in the targeted role(s). Fails per-host if the container doesn’t exist.

Does not touch the proxy. For traffic to flow to started containers, follow up with wheels deploy rollback <v>.

example
wheels deploy app start --release=abc1234
