Getting Started

Follow these steps to set up the Spring Boot backend locally.

Prerequisites

• Java JDK: 17 or higher
• Maven: 3.8+
• Docker: For running PostgreSQL and Redis locally.

Environment Variables

The backend relies on several environment variables. In production, these are managed by Doppler. For local development, create an .env file or provide them to your IDE:

SPRING_AI_OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-your-openai-key
PYTHON_API_URL=http://localhost:7002
JWT_SECRET=your_super_secret_jwt_signing_key_here
SPRING_DATASOURCE_URL=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/sred
SPRING_DATASOURCE_USERNAME=postgres
SPRING_DATASOURCE_PASSWORD=postgres
SPRING_REDIS_HOST=localhost
SPRING_REDIS_PORT=6379

Infrastructure Setup

You can spin up the required PostgreSQL and Redis instances using the docker-compose.yml file located at the root of the repository:

docker compose up -d postgres redis

Running the Application

Using Maven wrapper:

./mvnw spring-boot:run

To run with a specific Spring profile (e.g., dev):

./mvnw spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=dev

Default Admin Credentials

Upon the first startup, the system automatically provisions an admin account:

• Username: admin
• Password: Admin123!@#
