nishmithas/nats-watch repository overview

⁠NATS Watch

Minimal setup guide for running via Docker and seeding the initial admin user.

⁠Docker

Build and run the container:

mkdir data/

chmod 777 data/

docker run --rm \
  -u $(id -u):$(id -g) \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  -e NEXTAUTH_SECRET='set-a-strong-secret' \
  -e ADMIN_USERNAME='admin' \
  -e ADMIN_PASSWORD='admin123!' \
  -e ADMIN_EMAIL='[email protected]' \
  -v "$(pwd)/data:/app/data" \
  --name nats-watch nishmithas/nats-watch:latest

Open http://localhost:3000⁠ and sign in with the seeded admin.

⁠Volume

• All app data is under /app/data in the container; bind mount a host path to persist:
  • -v $(pwd)/data:/app/data

⁠Env

• NEXTAUTH_SECRET (required): set to a strong, random value in production.
• ADMIN_USERNAME, ADMIN_PASSWORD, ADMIN_EMAIL (optional): if set on first run and no users exist, the container will seed an admin user.
