Register a User¶
To use Deis, you must first register a user on the Controller.
Register with a Controller¶
Use deis register with the Controller URL (supplied by your Deis administrator)
to create a new account. You will be logged in automatically.
The domain you use here should match the one you set with deisctl config platform set domain=.
Note that you always use deis.<domain> to communicate with the controller.
$ deis register http://deis.example.com
username: myuser
password:
password (confirm):
email: myuser@example.com
Registered myuser
Logged in as myuser
Note
For Vagrant clusters: deis register http://deis.local3.deisapp.com
Note
The subdomain can be customized by using deisctl config controller set subdomain=foo. The
router will then route requests from foo.<domain> to the controller. See
Customizing controller for more info on how to customize the controller.
Important
The first user to register with Deis receives “superuser” privileges. Additional users who register will be ordinary users. It’s also possible to disable user registration after creating the superuser account. For details, see Disabling user registration.
Upload Your SSH Public Key¶
If you plan on using git push to deploy applications to Deis, you must provide your SSH public key. Use the deis keys:add command to upload your default SSH public key, usually one of:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
- ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
$ deis keys:add
Found the following SSH public keys:
1) id_rsa.pub
Which would you like to use with Deis? 1
Uploading /Users/myuser/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to Deis... done
Logout from a Controller¶
Logout of an existing controller session using deis logout.
$ deis logout
Logged out as deis
Login to a Controller¶
If you already have an account, use deis login to authenticate against the Deis Controller.
$ deis login http://deis.example.com
username: deis
password:
Logged in as deis
Note
For Vagrant clusters: deis login http://deis.local3.deisapp.com

Deis session information is stored in your user’s ~/.deis directory.
