I get a lot of stuff… The first time i tried to make a docker-compose myself based on docs, and it made the groceries db. But I found out you need a lot of settings for couchdb, so I tried to run the default files, and I got an error on docker-compose.yml file. It wouldn’t run due to “restart: always” in the healthcheck of couchdb.

Now it seems it is complaining about JWT settings, even though I have base64-code in jwt.ini corresponding to the phrase in docker-compose. groceries-server_1 | [07:30:22] ERROR: Cannot access database with encoded JWT key. Please check HMAC entry in jwt.ini. The hmac:_default value should be: c3F1ZWVnZWUtZmxhdG5lc3Mtb2NjdWx0aXN0LWNvbmZ1c2luZw==

Which corresponds to the jwt.ini [jwt_keys]

hmac:_default = c3F1ZWVnZWUtZmxhdG5lc3Mtb2NjdWx0aXN0LWNvbmZ1c2luZw==

I got a bad feeling about the whole thing… I think I will stick to caldav + tasks.org for my shopping list, it has a much simpler setup…

I do the same. I use caddy reverse proxy, and find it useful to use the container name for url, and no ports exposed

What is the benefit for making changes with separate files?

groceries got me interested, but I’m not able to get it working in docker. I am trying to run it behind caddy reverse proxy. All the containers are running, and it seems the couchdb database has been created but I get nothing when going to the url of the server and client. Just blank page.

Don’t know why you got downvoted. Chatgpt has helped me too wrap my head around programming/scripting - in my case jinja2 in home assistant.

It might not always be correct, but it helped me getting started!

Email. I want a local email server where I can move old emails off the internet for archiving.

But the number of components going into email servers made me stop… I already have caddy reverse proxy, but finding out how to use it for a email server… I didn’t even get properly started
