Instantly run a local demo

Instantly run a local instance of percvre using podman, docker or any other container engine.

First, start the container.

docker run --rm -e PERCVRE_USE_SQLITE=True -e PERCVRE_ALLOWED_HOSTS=localhost -e PERCVRE_CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://localhost:8082 -v percvre-db:/app/src/persistent_db --name percvre-localhost -p 8082:80 ghcr.io/wolfskaempf/percvre:latest

Then, in a separate shell window you'll need to run database migrations to initialise the SQLite database and create an administrative account by running the following command.

docker exec -i -t percvre-localhost /bin/sh -c "python manage.py migrate && python manage.py createsuperuser"

Now you can access your local instance at http://localhost:8082/ and the administrative area at http://localhost:8082/admin/

Deploy using Caprover

Caprover is a tool that turns your personal VPS into a Platform as a Service comparable to dokku or Heroku.

1. Get started with Caprover on your VPS and your CLI
2. Create a One-Click-Postgres app and remember the data you chose (app name, default database, user and password).
3. Create a new app named anything you like in the Caprover interface. This tutorial will go with percvre for the app name.
4. Inside the HTTP Settings section of the new app enable HTTPS and select Force HTTPS by redirecting all HTTP traffic to HTTPS
5. Inside the App Configs section of the new app configure the app specific environment variables described in example.env

• Ensure you have added all environment variables that start with PERCVRE (do not copy the POSTGRES variables into the App Configs section of the percvre app)
• Ensure the database connection information matches the database you created earlier
  • The PERCVRE_POSTGRES_HOST can be found in the app overview of the database you created earlier
  • It should look something like this srv-captain--percvre-db where percvre-db is the name you selected for your database
  • Ensure you include only the hostname and no protocol (such as https://) in PERCVRE_POSTGRES_HOST

6. On your local machine run git clone https://github.com/wolfskaempf/percvre.git && cd percvre to clone this repository and change directory into it.
7. Run npx caprover deploy and select your server and the app you just created
   • If this command doesn't exist, make sure that you followed Step 3 of Getting Started with Caprover
