This is a personal fork of NocoDB.
Below are quick instructions to build and deploy it on Google Cloud Run.

• Google Cloud project with billing enabled.
• Google Cloud CLI installed and authenticated:

  gcloud auth login
  gcloud config set project <YOUR_PROJECT_ID>

• Docker installed locally (to build and push the image).
• A fork (this repo) cloned locally.

In the root of this repo, ensure you have a Dockerfile that builds NocoDB.
For example:

# Use an official Node.js runtime as the base (Node 18 recommended)
FROM node:18-alpine

# Create app directory
WORKDIR /app

# Copy package files
COPY package.json pnpm-lock.yaml ./

# Install pnpm
RUN npm install -g pnpm

# Install dependencies
RUN pnpm install

# Copy the rest of your source code
COPY . .

# Build NocoDB
RUN pnpm run build

# Expose port 8080 (the default NocoDB port)
EXPOSE 8080

# Start the NocoDB server
CMD ["pnpm", "run", "start"]

Adjust commands (e.g., build, start) if your fork’s scripts differ.

From your local repo folder:

1. Build the image (replace YOUR_PROJECT_ID with your GCP project ID):

   docker build -t gcr.io/YOUR_PROJECT_ID/nocodb:latest .

2. Enable Container Registry (or Artifact Registry):

   gcloud services enable containerregistry.googleapis.com

3. Push the image:

   docker push gcr.io/YOUR_PROJECT_ID/nocodb:latest

(If you prefer Artifact Registry, tag/push accordingly, e.g. LOCATION-docker.pkg.dev/YOUR_PROJECT_ID/REPO_NAME/nocodb:latest.)

gcloud run deploy nocodb \
  --image gcr.io/YOUR_PROJECT_ID/nocodb:latest \
  --platform managed \
  --region us-central1 \
  --allow-unauthenticated

• Replace nocodb with the service name you want.
• Replace gcr.io/YOUR_PROJECT_ID/nocodb:latest with your image path.
• Choose a region you prefer (e.g., us-central1).
• --allow-unauthenticated makes NocoDB public. (You can require auth if you’d like.)

When it finishes, you’ll get a URL to access NocoDB!

By default, NocoDB uses SQLite stored in the container’s filesystem — data is ephemeral (lost if the container restarts).

To use a managed Postgres (e.g., Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL), set environment variables:

gcloud run services update nocodb \
  --region us-central1 \
  --update-env-vars=NC_DB="pg://<DB_HOST>:5432?u=<USER>&p=<PASS>&d=<DB_NAME>" \
  --update-env-vars=NC_AUTH_JWT_SECRET="random-secret-key"

You might also need a Cloud SQL Auth Proxy or VPC connector for secure connectivity.

• Go to the Cloud Run URL from the deployment step.
• Complete NocoDB’s initial setup in the browser.
• Enjoy your self-hosted NocoDB on GCP!

This project remains under AGPLv3, inherited from the upstream NocoDB project.
