# âĻ About Calckey
Please see the [upstream version](https://codeberg.org/calckey/calckey) if you seriously intend to run this project.

## ðĐ Install dependencies
```sh

corepack enable
corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate
pnpm i
```
## Database
This setup assumes you already have a valid PostgreSQL database with
a model corresponding to the Calckey version 14.0.0-RC3.
## Configuring a new server
- Run `cp .config/example.yml .config/default.yml`
- Edit `.config/default.yml`, making sure to fill out required fields.
- Also copy and edit `.config/docker_example.env` to `.config/docker.env` if you're using Docker.
## Running the server
```sh
pnpm run start
```
## Web proxy
### Caddy
- Add the following block to your `Caddyfile`, replacing `example.tld` with your own domain:
```caddy
example.tld {
reverse_proxy http://127.0.0.1:3000
}
```
- Reload your caddy configuration
This is a horribly broken fork of Calckey not intended to be run on its own.
