🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Docker
• Kubernetes Cluster (Minikube, Kind, or Cloud Provider)
• A Google Gemini API Key

📦 Installation & Deployment

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/YASHMAHAKAL/rizz.ai.git
   cd rizz.ai

2. Create the Kubernetes Secret

   You must create a secret to store your API key securely in the cluster.

   kubectl create secret generic rizz-secret --from-literal=api-key=YOUR_ACTUAL_API_KEY_HERE

3. Build the Docker Images

   If you are using Minikube, point your shell to Minikube's Docker daemon first:

   eval $(minikube docker-env)

   Build the Backend:

   cd backend
   docker build -t rizz-backend:latest .
   cd ..

   Build the Frontend:

   cd rizz-app
   docker build -t rizz-ai:latest .
   cd ..

4. Deploy to Kubernetes

   # Deploy Backend
   kubectl apply -f backend-deployment.yaml
   
   # Deploy Frontend
   kubectl apply -f rizz-pod.yaml

5. Access the Application

   If using Minikube:

   minikube service rizz-service

🔒 Security

This project uses a secure Backend-for-Frontend architecture.

• The Frontend (React) never sees the API key. It sends requests to the Backend via an Nginx proxy (/api/...).
• The Backend (Node.js) holds the API key in a secure environment variable injected by Kubernetes Secrets.
• The API Key is stored in Kubernetes etcd (encrypted) and is never committed to the repository.
