Fiddy (External DB)

Monorepo scaffold for a budgeting/collaboration app that connects to an external on-prem Postgres server.

Quick start (dev)

1. Copy env template:
   • .env.example -> apps/web/.env
2. Edit apps/web/.env:
   • Set DATABASE_URL to your DB server hostname/IP (NOT db).
   • Set ALLOWED_DB_NAMES to a comma-separated allowlist (case-insensitive).
3. Start web:
   • docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build
4. Apply migrations:
   • npm run db:migrate (ensure DATABASE_URL points to the DB you want)

Prod

• Deploy folder: /opt/fiddy
• Put .env in /opt/fiddy/apps/web/.env with the prod DB connection string and ALLOWED_DB_NAMES.
• docker compose up -d will run only the web container; DB is external.
