For a production deployment with Firebase authentication, Github access, Secret Management etc
To set up Firebase, follow these steps:
- Create a Firebase Project: Go to Firebase Console and create a new project.
- Generate a Service Account Key:
- Click on Project Overview Gear ⚙ from the sidebar.
- Open the Service Accounts tab.
- Click on the option to generate a new private key in the Firebase Admin SDK sub-section.
- Read the warning and generate the key. Rename the downloaded key to
firebase_service_account.json
and move it to the root of the potpie source code.
- Create a Firebase App
- Go to the Project Overview Gear ⚙ from the sidebar.
- Create a Firebase app.
- You will find keys for hosting, storage, and other services. Use these keys in your
.env
file.
PostHog is an open-source platform that helps us analyze user behavior on Potpie.
- Sign Up: Create a free account at PostHog and keep your API key in
.env
asPOSTHOG_API_KEY
, andPOSTHOG_HOST
Portkey provides observability and monitoring capabilities for AI integration with Potpie.
- Sign Up: Create a free account at Portkey and keep your API key in
.env
asPORTKEY_API_KEY
.
To enable login via GitHub, create a GitHub app by following these steps:
- Visit GitHub App Creation.
- Name Your App: Choose a name relevant to Potpie (e.g.,
potpie-auth
). - Set Permissions:
- Repository Permissions:
- Contents: Read Only
- Metadata: Read Only
- Pull Requests: Read and Write
- Secrets: Read Only
- Webhook: Read Only
- Organization Permissions: Members : Read Only
- Account Permissions: Email Address: Read Only
- Homepage URL : https://potpie.ai
- Webhook : Inactive
- Repository Permissions:
- Generate a Private Key: Download the private key and place it in the project root . Add your app ID to
GITHUB_APP_ID
. - Format your Private Key: Use the
format_pem.sh
to format your key:The formatted key will be displayed in the terminal. Copy the formatted key and add it to env underchmod +x format_pem.sh ./format_pem.sh your-key.pem
GITHUB_PRIVATE_KEY
. - Install the App: From the left sidebar, select Install App and install it next to your organization/user account.
- Create a GitHub Token: Go to your GitHub Settings > Developer Settings > Personal Access Tokens > Tokens (classic). Add the token to your
.env
file underGH_TOKEN_LIST
- Open Firebase and navigate to Authentication.
- Enable GitHub sign-in capability by adding a GitHub OAuth app from your account. This will provide you with a client secret and client ID to add to Firebase.
- Copy the callback URL from Firebase and add it to your GitHub app. GitHub Auth with Firebase is now ready.
Potpie uses Google Secret Manager to securely manage API keys. If you created a Firebase app, a linked Google Cloud account will be automatically created. You can use that or create a new one as needed. Follow these steps to set up the Secret Manager and Application Default Credentials (ADC) for Potpie:
-
Install gcloud CLI. Follow the official installation guide: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/install
After installation, initialize gcloud CLI:
gcloud init
Say yes to configuring a default compute region. Select your local region when prompted.
-
Set up the gcloud Secret Manager API.
-
Configure Application Default Credentials for local use: https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/set-up-adc-local-dev-environment
- Ensure Docker is Installed: Verify that Docker is installed and running on your system.
- Set Up the Environment: Create a
.env
file based on the provided.env.template
in the repository. This file should include all necessary configuration settings for the application. - Google Cloud Authentication: Log in to your Google Cloud account and set up Application Default Credentials (ADC). Detailed instructions can be found in the documentation. Alternatively place the service account key file for your gcp project in service-account.json file in the root of the codebase.
- Run Potpie: Execute the following command:
You may need to make it executable by running:
./start.sh
