Rhizome

Slightly over-engineered personal knowledge base. Uses code and tricks from Luca Palmieri's excellent book Zero to Production in Rust.

Installation

Prerequisites: docker, docker-compose-plugin.

Clone the repo, create and run the containers.

git clone https://github.com/kldtz/rhizome.git
cd rhizome

docker context use <context-name>

# Public server
docker compose up -d

# Local deployment
docker compose -f docker-compose-local.yml up

Manual database backup

Use docker to copy the dump file. Going via stdout can corrupt the file.

# Backup db
./scripts/backup_db.sh

# Get container hash
DB=$(docker compose ps -q db)

# Restore db
docker cp backup/knowledge_dump.tar $DB:/
docker exec -i $DB pg_restore -U postgres -c -d knowledge /knowledge_dump.tar
