Excalidraw — a virtual hand-drawn-style whiteboard for sketching diagrams and wireframes. Deployed as a stateless host-networked Nomad service (the app runs client-side in the browser).
Save as values.hcl, edit, then run:
# The name of the Nomad job.
job_name = "excalidraw"
# The Nomad namespace to deploy into.
namespace = "default"
# The datacenters to deploy to.
datacenters = ["*"]
# The Excalidraw container image (nginx serving the built app). Pin a tag in production.
image = "excalidraw/excalidraw:latest"
# Host port for the web app. Default 8094 (the image serves on 80 internally; this pack rebinds it via a rendered nginx config).
port = 8094
# Number of instances (stateless, so >1 is fine on distinct ports/nodes).
count = 1
# Placement constraints. On a nomploy cluster: attribute = "$${meta.nomploy_control_plane}", operator = "=", value = "true".
constraints = []
# The task resources.
