# Miabi Guestbook — example app
A tiny, self-contained web app used as a **reference for deploying to
[Miabi](https://github.com/miabi-io/miabi)**. It is a classic guestbook:
visitors leave a name and a message, and the wall shows every signature.
It deliberately exercises everything a real Miabi deployment touches, in
miniature:
- **[Okapi](https://github.com/jkaninda/okapi) (Go)** REST API, driven by
**`okapicli`** — a `server` subcommand with graceful-shutdown lifecycle hooks
(the same CLI layout Miabi uses)
- **SPA served by `app.WebFS`** — the embedded UI is mounted straight from an
`embed.FS`; Okapi serves real assets and falls back to `index.html` for
client-side routes (home + an **All signatures** page), while registered API
routes keep precedence
- **Live updates over SSE** — new/removed signatures stream to every open tab,
with a real-time **connected-clients** ("N online") indicator
- **Version badge** — the serving build's version is shown in the UI and
`/api/info`; ideal for watching a **canary rollout** decide which build answers
- **[GORM](https://gorm.io) with PostgreSQL _or_ SQLite** — `uint` PKs and soft
deletes, the same conventions Miabi uses. Attach a Miabi managed Postgres, or
fall back to a zero-config SQLite file (pure-Go driver, no CGO).
- **Structured logging** via [`jkaninda/logger`](https://github.com/jkaninda/logger)
- **Env-based config** — auto-detects the driver; reads `DATABASE_URL` / `DB_*`
- **`AutoMigrate` on startup** with retry (tolerates the DB coming up a beat later)
- **First-run seeder** — populates the wall when the table is empty (`SEED=false` to skip)
- **`/healthz` readiness probe** that returns `503` until the database is reachable
- **Single static binary** — the whole UI is embedded with `go:embed`, so the
image is one distroless layer with **no Node build step**
## Why this UI approach
For an example that should deploy in seconds, the frontend is a **single
embedded `index.html`** — modern CSS (glassmorphism cards, gradient mesh, dark
theme) plus a little vanilla JS calling the JSON API. No CDN, no bundler, no
`node_modules`. It looks polished, loads instantly, works offline/air-gapped,
and keeps the container tiny.
## API
| Method | Path | Description |
|----------|----------------------|------------------------------------|
| `GET` | `/healthz` | Liveness/readiness (checks the DB), reports `version` |
| `GET` | `/api/info` | App name, serving `version`, connected-client count |
| `GET` | `/api/entries` | List entries + total; paginated via `?limit=&offset=` |
| `POST` | `/api/entries` | Create `{ "name", "message" }` (broadcast live) |
| `DELETE` | `/api/entries/{id}` | Delete an entry (broadcast live) |
| `GET` | `/api/stream` | **SSE** stream: `welcome`, `created`, `deleted`, `presence` events |
| `GET` | `/` · `/all` | The web UI (home · all-signatures page) |
### Live updates (SSE)
`/api/stream` is a Server-Sent Events endpoint. On connect the client gets a
`welcome` event (serving version + online count); thereafter the server pushes
`created` / `deleted` events as the wall changes and `presence` events whenever
the number of connected clients changes. The UI uses these to update the wall in
real time and show a live **“N online”** indicator — no polling.
## Configuration
| Variable | Default | Purpose |
|----------------|------------------|-------------------------------------------|
| `PORT` | `8080` | HTTP listen port |
| `APP_NAME` | `Miabi Guestbook`| Display name in the UI / health payload |
| `APP_VERSION` | build version | Overrides the version shown in the UI / `/api/info`. Defaults to the value baked at build time (`-ldflags "-X main.version=…"`, or the `VERSION` build-arg). |
| `SEED` | `true` | Seed sample entries on first run (empty table only) |
| `DB_DRIVER` | _(auto)_ | `postgres` or `sqlite`. Unset → auto: Postgres when configured, else SQLite. |
| `DB_PATH` | `data/guestbook.db` (`/data/guestbook.db` in the image) | SQLite file path (or `:memory:`). Its parent dir is created on startup. The container stores it on the `/data` volume. |
| `DATABASE_URL` | — | Full Postgres DSN (URL or key=value). Preferred — set for you when you attach a Miabi **managed database**. Takes precedence over `DB_*`. |
| `DB_HOST` | `localhost` | Database host (used when `DATABASE_URL` is empty) |
| `DB_PORT` | `5432` | Database port |
| `DB_USER` | `postgres` | Database user |
| `DB_PASSWORD` | `postgres` | Database password |
| `DB_NAME` | `guestbook` | Database name |
| `DB_SSL_MODE` | `disable` | Postgres `sslmode` |
> **On Miabi:** attach a managed database to the app and Miabi injects these
> variables automatically — `DATABASE_URL` for the full DSN, plus the discrete
> `DB_*` parts. You don't set them by hand.
## Run locally
With Docker Compose (Postgres + app):
```bash
docker compose up --build
# open http://localhost:8080
```
Or run the binary directly. With nothing configured it uses a zero-config
SQLite file, so this just works:
```bash
go run . # runs the default "server" command
go run . server -p 9000 # okapicli flags: choose the port
go run . --help # list commands and flags
```
To point it at your own Postgres, set `DATABASE_URL` (or the `DB_*` vars) first:
```bash
cp .env.example .env # edit DATABASE_URL
export $(grep -v '^#' .env | xargs)
go run .
```
## Build the image
```bash
docker build --build-arg VERSION=1.0.0 -t miabi-guestbook:1.0.0 .
docker run -p 8080:8080 -e DATABASE_URL=postgres://... miabi/guestbook:1.0.0
```
The version can also be overridden at runtime with `-e APP_VERSION=…`.
## Canary deployment demo
The version badge makes this app a ready-made **canary** example. Build two
otherwise-identical images and let Miabi split traffic between them — the badge
(and `/api/info`) tells you which build served each request:
```bash
docker build --build-arg VERSION=1.0.0 -t miabi-guestbook:1.0.0 .
docker build --build-arg VERSION=2.0.0 -t miabi/guestbook:2.0.0 .
```
1. Deploy `1.0.0` as the app; attach a **shared** managed Postgres.
2. Roll out `2.0.0` as a **canary** with a small weight (e.g. 10%).
3. Refresh the page a few times: ~1 in 10 loads shows the `v2.0.0` badge (a
different colour), the rest `v1.0.0`. Because both versions share the same
database, signatures created on either build appear on both — and stream
live to every open tab via SSE.
4. Shift the weight up and promote `2.0.0` when you're happy.
> No build args? Set `APP_VERSION=1.0.0` / `APP_VERSION=2.0.0` in each app's
> environment instead — same effect.
## Deploy on Miabi
1. **Create a database** — provision a PostgreSQL database in your workspace.
2. **Create an application** — deploy this repo (Git build) or the image above.
3. **Attach the database** — Miabi injects the connection as `DATABASE_URL`.
4. **Set the health check** to `GET /healthz` and the port to `8080`.
5. **Connect a domain** — Miabi issues automatic SSL and routes traffic.
The app migrates its schema on first boot, so there is no separate release step.
