Running the Application via Docker

Follow the steps below to run the entire application using Docker Compose.

1. Prepare appsettings.json

Navigate to the /BackEnd folder and create a file named appsettings.json.
Use appsettings.Example.json as a reference for the required structure.

At minimum, make sure to fill in the following environment variables:

• LLM:ApiKey → Your API key for the Google Gemini model
• LLM:curl → Your curl command or endpoint for the model

Note: You do not have to set the AllowedOrigins field when running with Docker Compose — this value will be overridden automatically.

2. Start the Application

Open a terminal in the main project directory and run:

docker-compose up -d

Once the containers are running, open your browser and go to: http://localhost:5173

You can use the chat on the front-end to communicate with the assistant.

Note: Sometimes it takes a few seconds for the back-end to start, and it may not respond to a message within the first few seconds. You can try again a few seconds later.
