This CF CLI Plugin to rolls traffic from one app to another over a specified time interval. It is useful for blue green deployments or other situations where start / stop is not enough or too abrupt. It was created by Guido Westenberg and Josh Kruck after being asked by too many people if CF had this functionality and having to say no.
#Assumptions
This plugin makes no assumptions about either application, nor does it attempt to "help" you. Route mapping to both applications, and the relationship between those applications is left to you. There is a simple check that the applications share a route, this can be disabled with --no-route-check. Please use care when using cf scaleover, it is possible to hurt yourself.
#Requirements Both applications must exist within the same space, and by default should share a route.
#Usage
Select two apps in the same space, and roll traffic between them.
