GitHub Codespaces Setup

This guide outlines how to set up Formbricks in a GitHub Codespaces environment.
Requirements:
  • A GitHub Codespace that has support for Node.JS, pnpm, and Docker.
Steps:
  1. Open your repository in GitHub Codespaces. If needed, clone the repository: 
    git clone https://github.com/formbricks/formbricks && cd formbricks
  2. Setup NodeJS with nvm (if not already configured): 
    nvm install && nvm use
  3. Install the dependencies: 
    pnpm install
  4. Create a .env file from the template: 
    cp .env.example .env
  5. Generate & set the required secrets: 
    sed -i '/^ENCRYPTION_KEY=/c\ENCRYPTION_KEY='$(openssl rand -hex 32) .env
sed -i '/^NEXTAUTH_SECRET=/c\NEXTAUTH_SECRET='$(openssl rand -hex 32) .env
sed -i '/^CRON_SECRET=/c\CRON_SECRET='$(openssl rand -hex 32) .env
  6. Launch the development setup: 
    pnpm go
Use the Codespaces port forwarding to access Formbricks at http://localhost:3000.
Make sure your Codespaces port configuration is set to allow access to the app.
