## Usage
Capgo is deployed to production on Cloudflare workers and Supabase.
Cloudflare workers take 99% of the traffic. Supabase is used for internal calls,
for internal tasks such as CRON jobs that call functions.
When self-hosted, installing only Supabase is sufficient.
## Why Cloudflare Workers + Supabase
We support both deployments for practical reasons:
- **Supabase** is the legacy backend and the only required piece for
self-hosting.
- **Cloudflare Workers** runs the same backend code (via the Hono adapter) but is
much cheaper at Capgo scale. With ~50M devices, Supabase Edge Functions are
cost-prohibitive because they follow AWS pricing. Cloudflare is ~10x cheaper
for our traffic profile.
In production, we route most traffic through Cloudflare Workers for cost and
scale, while Supabase remains the reference backend and the default for
self-hosted deployments. Private endpoints and trigger/CRON workloads still run
on Supabase in production.
## Project structure (self-hosting map)
If you're self-hosting, the key pieces live in a few top-level directories:
- `supabase/` - **Primary backend for self-hosting**
- `supabase/functions/` - Edge functions (Deno) that power the API
- `_backend/` - Core implementation used by both Supabase and Cloudflare
- `public/` - Public API routes used by customers and apps
- `private/` - Internal API routes for the console and ops tooling
- `plugins/` - Plugin endpoints (updates, stats, channel_self, etc.)
- `triggers/` - Database triggers and CRON functions
- `supabase/migrations/` - Database schema and RLS policies
- `supabase/seed.sql` - Local seed data for tests/dev
- `supabase/schemas/prod.sql` - Production schema dump (reference only)
- `cloudflare_workers/` - **Optional** Cloudflare Workers deployment (prod traffic)
- `cloudflare_workers/snippet/` - Geo routing for replicas
- Worker entry points and deploy config live here
- `src/` - Frontend Vue 3 web console (Vite + Tailwind + DaisyUI)
- `src/pages/` - File-based routes
- `src/components/` - Reusable UI components
- `src/services/` - API clients and integrations
- `src/stores/` - Pinia stores
- `sql/` - Raw SQL helpers and maintenance scripts
- `scripts/` - Dev/build scripts used by CI and local tooling
- `tests/` - Backend Vitest tests (run in parallel)
- `playwright/` - Frontend E2E tests
- `docs/` - Extra documentation and guides
- `android/`, `ios/` - Capacitor native projects (mobile builds)
Quick self-hosting path:
1. `supabase/` is enough to run the backend locally.
2. `src/` is the web console you point to your own backend.
3. `cloudflare_workers/` is only needed if you want to run the Workers layer
instead of (or in front of) Supabase.
## Backend endpoints (what lives where)
The backend is split by responsibility to keep routes clear and access scoped:
- `supabase/functions/_backend/public/` - **Public API** exposed to customers.
This is the documented API on the website for customers that want to interact
with Capgo programmatically (apps, channels, bundles, devices, etc.).
- `supabase/functions/_backend/private/` - **Private API** used internally.
The console (web UI) uses this heavily for admin/ops workflows. It is not
publicly accessible. Some UI flows still use the public API where appropriate.
- `supabase/functions/_backend/plugins/` - **Plugin API** used by the
`@capgo/capacitor-updater` plugin running inside apps:
- `updates` - device update checks and bundle download flow
- `stats` - upload usage stats from devices
- `channel_self` - allow a device to opt into a channel (QA/debug)
- `supabase/functions/_backend/triggers/` - **Triggers & CRON** for automated
backend jobs (queue consumers, scheduled tasks, DB-triggered flows).
When self-hosting, you generally expose `public` + `plugins`. `private` should
stay internal and locked down. `triggers` runs automatically.
## Production schema (prod.sql)
`supabase/schemas/prod.sql` is a schema dump of the production database. It is
generated via `bun run schemas` (or `bun run schemas:local`) and is meant for
reference/diffing, not as a source of truth. All actual schema changes live in
`supabase/migrations/`.

## Tests
Tests are split by backend (API/plugin), CLI, database SQL, and frontend:
- `tests/` - Backend Vitest tests (API + plugin + CLI)
- `playwright/e2e/` - Frontend Playwright tests
- `supabase/tests/` - SQL tests for functions, RLS, and DB logic
Backend test groups (Vitest):
- API tests: public/private endpoints and general backend behavior
- Plugin tests: `tests/updates*.test.ts`, `tests/stats*.test.ts`,
`tests/channel_self*.test.ts`
- CLI tests: `tests/cli*.test.ts` (CLI auth, upload, metadata, etc.)
Run tests:
```bash
# Supabase Edge Functions (default)
bun test:all
bun test:backend
bun test:cli
bun test:front
# CLI workspace
bun run cli:build
bun run cli:test
bun run cli:check
# Legacy aliases kept for compatibility
bun test:local
bun test:all:local
bun test:cli:local
# Database SQL tests (Supabase CLI)
supabase test db
# Cloudflare Workers
bun test:cloudflare:all
bun test:cloudflare:backend
bun test:cloudflare:updates
# Local Cloudflare Workers (required for cloudflare tests)
./scripts/start-cloudflare-workers.sh
```
Notes:
- Tests run in parallel across files. If a test mutates shared data, add
dedicated seed data in `supabase/seed.sql`.
- The repository is a Bun workspace monorepo. The Capgo app lives at the root
and the CLI lives in `cli/`.
- Capgo's Vitest CLI coverage now resolves the local `cli/` workspace by
default, so monorepo changes are exercised together.
- SQL tests in `supabase/tests/` are run by the Supabase CLI test runner.
- Run `bun run supabase:start` first so the local DB is available (worktree-isolated).

### Deploy on Cloudflare Pages
Use the CLI to deploy to preprod
```bash
bun run dev-build
# then deploy
bun run deploy:cloudflare:console:preprod
```
or Prod
```bash
bun run build
# then deploy
bun run deploy:cloudflare:console:prod
```
### Development
You will need to start each local server in separate terminals.
Before continuing, ensure you have the following installed:
- [Docker](https://www.docker.com/)
- [bun](https://bun.sh/)
- [Supabase CLI](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/cli)
You can install the `supabase` CLI globally with `bun install supabase -g` and
you'll be able to invoke `supabase` from anywhere.
Alternatively, you can install the `supabase` CLI locally with
`bun install supabase --save-dev` but, to invoke it, you have to use:
`./node_modules/supabase/bin/supabase`.
In the following guideline, we will assume that you have installed the
`supabase` CLI globally.
#### Start Supabase DB Locally
Start the Supabase DB:
```bash
bun run supabase:start
```
Ports may differ per git worktree. To see the exact URLs/keys for the current worktree run:
```bash
bun run supabase:status
```
#### Seed Supabase DB locally
[!WARNING] ⚠️ Ensure Docker is running.
```bash
bun run supabase:db:reset
```
#### Start Frontend locally
```bash
bun install
bun serve:local
```
#### Login
Visit http://localhost:5173
There are two login credentials you can use:
| Account | Username | Password |
| ---------- | --------------- | ---------- |
| Demo User | test@capgo.app | testtest |
| Admin User | admin@capgo.app | adminadmin |
The _demo user_ account has some demo data in it. If the data is not fresh, just
reset the db with `supabase db reset`. The seed has been made in a way that
ensures the data is always fresh.
The _admin user_ account has administration rights so the user can impersonate
other users. You can find the interface for that in the "Account" section.
#### Supabase DB Reset
[!WARNING] ⚠️ Ensure Docker is running.
This will seed the DB with demo data.
```bash
supabase db reset
```
### Deploy Supabase self hosted
To deploy the supabase instance in self-hosted, use the
[Supabase official guide](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/self-hosting).
Before deploying, duplicate `supabase/functions/.env.example` to
`supabase/functions/.env`, replace the placeholder values with your
self-hosted credentials, and keep the file local (it is gitignored). Use that
file for commands such as
`supabase secrets set --env-file supabase/functions/.env`.
Organization invitation emails depend on Bento. If `BENTO_PUBLISHABLE_KEY`,
`BENTO_SECRET_KEY`, and `BENTO_SITE_UUID` are not configured in
`supabase/functions/.env` and synced to Supabase secrets, invite-org emails
will not be sent.
### Deploy Supabase cloud
To deploy the Supabase instance on cloud, you need a paid account, which costs
$25/month.
Link the project to the cloud with the following command:
```bash
supabase link
```
https://supabase.com/docs/reference/cli/supabase-link
Then you need to push the migrations to the cloud with the following command:
```bash
supabase db push --linked
```
https://supabase.com/docs/reference/cli/supabase-migration-up
And seed the DB with demo data:
```bash
supabase seed buckets
```
https://supabase.com/docs/reference/cli/supabase-seed-buckets
Seed the secret for functions:
```bash
supabase secrets set --env-file supabase/functions/.env
```
Push the functions to the cloud:
```bash
supabase functions deploy
```
### Environment Variables for Self-Hosted Deployments
By default, the configuration uses Capgo production values from [configs.json](configs.json). For self-hosted deployments, you **must override** all configuration values using environment variables.
#### Required Environment Variables
All configuration keys from `configs.json` can be overridden by setting their uppercase equivalent as environment variables:
| Environment Variable | Description | Default (Prod) | Required for Self-Hosted |
|---------------------|-------------|----------------|--------------------------|
| `BASE_DOMAIN` | Console domain | `console.capgo.app` | ✅ Yes |
| `SUPA_ANON` | Supabase anonymous key | Capgo production key | ✅ Yes |
| `SUPA_URL` | Supabase URL | `https://sb.capgo.app` | ✅ Yes |
| `API_DOMAIN` | API domain | `api.capgo.app` | ✅ Yes |
| `CAPTCHA_KEY` | Turnstile captcha key | Capgo production key | ⚠️ Optional |
#### Example Self-Hosted Configuration
```bash
# .env file for self-hosted deployment
BASE_DOMAIN=console.yourdomain.com
SUPA_ANON=your-supabase-anon-key
SUPA_URL=https://your-supabase-url.supabase.co
API_DOMAIN=api.yourdomain.com
CAPTCHA_KEY=your-turnstile-key
```
#### Bento Email Variables
If you want organization invitation emails to work, you also need to configure
these Bento environment variables:
```bash
BENTO_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=your-bento-publishable-key
BENTO_SECRET_KEY=your-bento-secret-key
BENTO_SITE_UUID=your-bento-site-uuid
```
#### How It Works
The configuration system (`scripts/utils.mjs`) checks for environment variables first:
1. If an uppercase environment variable exists (e.g., `SUPA_URL`), it uses that value
2. Otherwise, it falls back to the appropriate value from `configs.json` based on the branch (`prod`, `preprod`, `development`, or `local`)
**Important:** Without setting these environment variables, your self-hosted instance will attempt to connect to Capgo's production infrastructure, which will fail.
### Build
To build the web app in mobile, in order to push to mobile stores, run:
```bash
bun install
bun mobile
```
And you will see the generated files in the `dist` directory, ready to be served
on stores.
