Configures your container in a specific directory
Explanation
The standalone configuration allows configuring your container so that it is setup to start in a directory you choose (see the configuration page for more general explanations).
Whenever you start a container which uses a standalone configuration, Cargo will delete the configuration directory in order to reinstall a clean standalone configuration. Thus all deployables that would have been previously deployed to this configuration will be removed. Of course, they will be deployed again if you have added them to the configuration (see Static Deployment).
Example using the Java API
There are different ways of using a standalone configuration:
- By directly instantiating the configuration matching your container. For example:
