SQLite writes three files — the database plus its -wal and -shm companions.
Putting them in one directory means a deployment mounts a single path and a
backup copies a single directory.
- FOODSTER_DB defaults to ./data/foodster.db, and openDB creates the parent
directory on startup rather than failing on a fresh checkout
- compose bind-mounts ./data instead of using a named volume, so the file can
be listed, copied and opened with any sqlite client without going through
the container engine
- the image runs as UID 65534, which cannot write to a host directory owned
by someone else, so compose now sets user: from FOODSTER_UID/FOODSTER_GID
- `make up` creates ./data first: left to the engine it appears root-owned
and the app silently cannot write to it
Bring up the stage 1 skeleton described in the PRD, enough that the app
builds, serves, and can be populated with dishes.
- net/http server with shared-password Basic auth, /healthz outside it,
graceful shutdown, and TZ-aware calendar days
- SQLite via modernc (pure Go, static binary), opened with WAL and a single
connection
- migration runner: numbered SQL files embedded and applied once each inside
a transaction, recorded in schema_migrations
- bundle import (PRD §7.3) as a live feature on the Ruoat tab: paste JSON or
upload a file, get a per-row Finnish report. The same importer is reachable
as `foodster -import` for repopulating a scratch database
- templ views and hand-written CSS with light-dark() theming; the Datastar
v1.0.3 client is vendored, since the Go SDK ships no browser asset and a
CDN would break an offline LAN
Names are normalized to sentence case rather than title case: Finnish
capitalizes only the first word of a phrase, so "Keitetyt perunat" is right
and "Keitetyt Perunat" is not. PRD §6 and §7.3 are amended to match.
Testing is behind make targets rather than ad-hoc commands: `make check` runs
lint, unit tests and scripts/smoke.sh, which exercises auth, static assets
and every import path against a scratch database on a spare port.
Foodster is a self-hosted dinner log and meal suggester for one household.
Stage 1 (eating history) is in development; stage 2 (the suggester) follows
once there is enough history to weight against.
Replace the PRD's original stack (Nuxt, Postgres, Drizzle, Pico CSS) with
Go 1.27, net/http, templ, Datastar and SQLite — one static binary, no
Node.js in the build. Sections 3, 4, 5, 9, 10 and 11 are rewritten to match.
Record the decisions made while reviewing mockups:
- the UI is written in Finnish; PRD, code and comments stay English
- access is one shared password over HTTP Basic rather than open on the LAN
- images are CalVer vYYYYMMDD-N, built with Podman, run under Docker Compose
- registry coordinates live in .env, so no infrastructure detail is
committed and the MIT publication option stays open
mockups/ holds standalone HTML design studies. log-fi.html is the current
one; the others are superseded exploration kept for reference.
