rx_shout

A shoutbox-like app for posting of images and text. Uses google authentication via reflex-google-auth.

This is an example app that is designed to run in "production mode" with postgres and redis via docker compose.

How to run

(Requires a Google auth client ID; set via environment var GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID)

docker compose build
docker compose up

Access the app on https://localhost

How to Embed

If the app is deployed on https://rx-shout.mooo.com and the box is being embedded via a static site generator like jekyll:

<iframe src="https://rx-shout.mooo.com/?topic={{ page.url }}&description={{ page.title }}" style="width: 100%; height: 600px; overflow-x: hidden"></iframe>

Run With Prod Services

docker compose -f compose.yaml -f compose.prod.yaml up -d

Access the app on https://localhost

Run With Admin Tools

docker compose -f compose.yaml -f compose.prod.yaml -f compose.tools.yaml up

Access postgres via adminer on http://localhost:8080
Access redis store via p3x-redis-ui on http://localhost:8081

Based on the example at reflex/reflex-dev

Backing Up The DB and Uploaded Files

docker compose exec -it db pg_dump --data-only -U postgres > backup.sql
docker compose exec -it app tar cvz /app/uploaded_files > uploaded_files.tar.gz

Restoring the DB and Uploaded Files

docker compose exec -T db psql -U postgres < backup.sql
docker compose exec -T app tar xvz -C / < uploaded_files.tar.gz

Automatic Deploy on Push

This repo has a workflow that will automatically deploy the app to a server on push to the main branch. It requires some secrets to be set in the repo settings as described in the comments at the top of the workflow.

The target server must already have docker compose installed and working, firewall rules allowing SSH, HTTP, and HTTPS ports, and an SSH key with a docker-enabled user that can copy the app to /app and build/run it.
