DOCKER_HOST only decides which daemon creates the container; the address the test dials comes from POSTGRES_HOST, which defaults to the job container's own loopback. Setting one without the other still times out.

Getting Started
Prerequisites
- Docker
- Docker Compose
- (Optional) A text editor for modifying the
.envfile.
Installation (Production Deployment)
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://git.jaroszew.ski/patrick/chitai.git - Navigate to the project root:
cd chitai - Copy the example environment file:
cp .env.prod-example .env - Edit
.env. At minimum setCHITAI_TOKEN_SECRETto something random, and setCHITAI_ORIGINto the URL you will reach the app on — logging in fails with a 403 if it does not match. PinCHITAI_VERSIONto a release tag if you would rather not tracklatest. - Pull the released images:
docker compose pull - Run the Docker containers in detached mode:
docker compose up -d - Access the frontend at:
http://localhost:3000/
To build the images from source instead of pulling them, run docker compose build in place of
step 5.
Development
NixOS Development Environment
To utilize the NixOS development environment:
- Navigate to the project root in your terminal:
cd chitai - Enter the Nix shell:
nix-shell
Docker development containers are planned for a future release.
