🚀 Quick Deployment¶

Development¶

git clone <repo>
cd readur
docker compose up --build -d
# Access: http://localhost:8000

Production¶

# Generate secure secrets
JWT_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 64)
DB_PASSWORD=$(openssl rand -base64 32)

# Create .env file
cat > .env << EOF
JWT_SECRET=${JWT_SECRET}
DB_PASSWORD=${DB_PASSWORD}
EOF

# Deploy with production config
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml --env-file .env up -d

🔧 Key Environment Variables¶

Essential (Required for Production)¶

JWT_SECRET=your-secure-random-key
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:pass@host:port/db
