GenIma

Overview

This project utilizes NextJS for the Frontend and webserver, as well as NestJS with tRPC for the API.

Using a text supplied by the user along with some categories, ChatGPT (4o-mini) and Dall-e-3 are used to turn your input into an image. Give it a try!

(Also try accessing the 404-page a few times!)

Building the application

Following pnpm's example on multiple Docker images in a monorepo, the Dockerfile is built with the targets 'api' and 'web' in mind. Then call:

docker build . --target web --tag genima-web:latest
docker build . --target api --tag genima-api:latest

Environment variables

Do not add quotes around the values. Kubernetes appears to surround these values with quotes again, resulting in values like process.env.TEST === '"someapikey"' (that's a "word" qouted again with 'single quotes'). Feels like a bug? See this issue.
