GitHub Codespaces Setup

This guide outlines how to set up Formbricks in a GitHub Codespaces environment.

Requirements:

  • A GitHub Codespace that has support for Node.JS, pnpm, and Docker.

Steps:

  1. Open your repository in GitHub Codespaces. If needed, clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/formbricks/formbricks && cd formbricks

  2. Setup NodeJS with nvm (if not already configured):

    nvm install && nvm use

  3. Install the dependencies:

    pnpm install

  4. Create a .env file from the template:

    cp .env.example .env

  5. Generate & set the required secrets:

    sed -i '/^ENCRYPTION_KEY=/c\ENCRYPTION_KEY='$(openssl rand -hex 32) .env
sed -i '/^NEXTAUTH_SECRET=/c\NEXTAUTH_SECRET='$(openssl rand -hex 32) .env
sed -i '/^CRON_SECRET=/c\CRON_SECRET='$(openssl rand -hex 32) .env

  6. Launch the development setup:

    pnpm go

Use the Codespaces port forwarding to access Formbricks at http://localhost:3000.

Make sure your Codespaces port configuration is set to allow access to the app.
