Docker
Run Brain with the production Dockerfile and Compose Postgres.
Local database only
docker-compose.yml starts Postgres 16 for development (brain and brain_test):
docker compose up -d dbURL: postgres://brain:[email protected]:5432/brain
Production image
Build and run the repo Dockerfile. The image builds eve + Next; CMD runs scripts/start-production.mjs (eve on :4274, then Next on :3000).
Pass runtime env (BRAIN_DATABASE_URL, BETTER_AUTH_SECRET, COMMAND_CODE_API_KEY, public URLs, …). Persist .eve/ as a volume if you use Menu Connect.
