PocketBase + SvelteKit (Static) Project Template

Welcome to the PocketBase + SvelteKit project template! This template allows you to effortlessly create a single Docker container housing both the backend (PocketBase) and frontend (SvelteKit) for your projects. With a minimal image size of just 55 MB, it's perfect for cost-effective hosting providers and projects without extensive public pages that require SEO.

Project Structure

  • pocketbase/: Backend files, including hooks and migrations.
  • sveltekit/: SvelteKit project with preconfigured routes /login, /register, and an auth-protected group (auth). In production builds, frontend files are copied as pb_public to the PocketBase container.

Features

  • Frontend configured with adapter-static (SPA mode), disabling server-side rendering for a streamlined production setup.
  • Client-side session management is preconfigured.
  • Multi-stage Dockerfile for running PocketBase in dev mode (mounting hooks and migrations to the host).
  • Bun is used for frontend development and building.
  • GitHub workflow build.yaml could be manually triggered to push the docker image to ghcr.io

Usage

  1. Run dev PocketBase server: docker compose -f compose.dev.yaml up.
  2. Run frontend dev server with bun or npm.
  3. Use PUBLIC_POCKETBASE_URL env variable if your PocketBase server is not accessible at localhost:8090.
  4. For production, use docker compose -f compose.prod.yaml up or build the Docker image with target prod first.

Dockerfile Details

  • Multistage build with targets:
    • base: Used for the dev server with all PocketBase directories mounted.
    • prod: Used for the production build, embedding frontend, hooks, and migrations into the image.

SSR and Authorization

  • SSR is disabled for simplified deployment, sacrificing SEO features.
  • Authorization is handled on the client side. Note, users can fetch all frontend resources, including pre-rendered pages and JS bundles. Sensitive information must be served from PocketBase.
