Web dashboard and install API for OpenBoot.

Deploy

Live at openboot.dev

This repo handles the web interface for managing configs, serving install scripts, and storing snapshots. The CLI lives at openbootdotdev/openboot.

What's in Here

  • Landing page + docs (SvelteKit + mdsvex)
  • Dashboard for creating and editing configs
  • Install script generator (the URL you curl from)
  • Brewfile import parser
  • Package search proxies (Homebrew, NPM)
  • OAuth login (GitHub, Google) + CLI device auth flow
  • Snapshot upload API (CLI posts your machine state here)

Stack

SvelteKit 5 + TypeScript, Cloudflare Workers + D1 (SQLite), GitHub/Google OAuth.

Running Locally

npm install
wrangler d1 migrations apply openboot --local  # Sets up DB
npm run dev

Create .dev.vars with your OAuth credentials:

GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=...
GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=...
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=...
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=...

Deployment

Tag-based releases — production deploys only happen when you create a version tag:

git tag v1.0.0
git push origin v1.0.0

This triggers:

  1. Tests + build
  2. Database migrations
  3. Deployment to openboot.dev

Push to main only runs CI (tests + build), no deployment.

See RELEASE.md for full release process.

Secrets needed: CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN, CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID

Key Endpoints

Install scripts (what the CLI curls):

  • GET /:alias — Short alias redirect or install script (curl-detected)
  • GET /:username/:slug/install — Config install script
  • GET /:username/:slug/config — Config JSON for CLI

Configs (CRUD for dashboard):

  • GET/POST /api/configs — List/create
  • GET/PUT/DELETE /api/configs/:slug — Read/update/delete
  • POST /api/configs/from-snapshot — CLI snapshot upload

Auth:

  • OAuth callbacks at /api/auth/callback/{github,google}
  • CLI device flow: /api/auth/cli/{start,approve,poll}

Utilities:

  • POST /api/brewfile/parse — Brewfile → package list
  • GET /api/homebrew/search?q=... — Search Homebrew
  • GET /api/npm/search?q=... — Search NPM

Database

D1 (SQLite). Two tables: users and configs. See migrations/ for schema. Key fields:

  • configs.packages — JSON array of {name, type, desc}
  • configs.snapshot — JSON object from CLI openboot snapshot
  • configs.visibility — public | unlisted | private
  • configs.alias — short URL (e.g., openboot.dev/dev → redirects)
