uv lock -U
uv sync --all-groups

#Backup

See Database Backup for details. In summary:

To create a database dump:

pg_dump -Fc --no-acl bocpress -h localhost -U bocpress -f /home/deploy/bocpress.dump -w

To restore a database dump:

pg_restore -v -h localhost -cO --if-exists -d bocpress -U bocpress -W bocpress.dump

#Management

In addition to the standard Django management commands, there are also:

• processnotifications: sends notification emails for new blog posts of existing records.
• mailexports: emails users of their blog exports.

They are triggered using the standard manage.py Django way; eg:

python manage.py processnotifications

#Billing

One can deploy BōcPress without setting up billing functionalities. This is the default case. To handle payments and subscriptions this project uses Stripe. To enable Stripe and payments, one needs to have a Stripe account with a single Product (eg. "BōcPress Premium Plan").

To configure, add the following variables from your Stripe account to your .envrc:

export STRIPE_API_KEY="sk_test_XXX"
export STRIPE_PUBLIC_KEY="pk_test_XXX"
export STRIPE_PRICE_ID="price_XXX"
