Docker

Run MoneyPrinter frontend, API, worker, and Postgres with Docker Compose.

1) Prepare environment

cp .env.example .env

Set required keys in .env:

• TIKTOK_SESSION_ID
• PEXELS_API_KEY

Database defaults (already in .env.example):

• POSTGRES_DB=moneyprinter
• POSTGRES_USER=moneyprinter
• POSTGRES_PASSWORD=moneyprinter
• DATABASE_URL=postgresql+psycopg://moneyprinter:moneyprinter@postgres:5432/moneyprinter

2) Ollama connectivity

By default, Docker backend expects Ollama on host machine:

• OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://host.docker.internal:11434

Linux support is included via compose extra_hosts host-gateway mapping.

If Ollama runs in another container or machine, set OLLAMA_BASE_URL accordingly.

3) Start services

docker compose up --build

4) Access apps

• Frontend: http://localhost:8001
• Backend API: http://localhost:8080
• Postgres: localhost:5432

5) Verify model listing

curl http://localhost:8080/api/models

You should receive a JSON payload with models and default.

6) Queue a generation job

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/generate \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"videoSubject":"AI business ideas","aiModel":"llama3.1:8b","voice":"en_us_001","paragraphNumber":1,"customPrompt":""}'

Response includes jobId. Query status and events:

curl http://localhost:8080/api/jobs/<jobId>
curl "http://localhost:8080/api/jobs/<jobId>/events?after=0"
