Dockerfile is multi-stage:
- build: golang:1.25-bookworm, CGO_ENABLED=0 (modernc.org/sqlite
is pure-Go) + -trimpath + -ldflags "-s -w" so the resulting
binary is small and reproducible-ish.
- runtime: gcr.io/distroless/static:nonroot, ~2 MB. Runs as uid
65532. /data and /var/lib/librenotes are declared volumes so
per-tenant notes and the SQLite database survive container
restarts.
healthcheck subcommand: distroless static has no shell or
wget/curl, so /healthz is reachable but no client to call it. A
new "librenotes healthcheck" subcommand uses net/http to GET
$LIBRENOTES_HEALTHCHECK_URL (default 127.0.0.1:8080/healthz) and
exits non-zero on failure. Both compose files invoke it from the
HEALTHCHECK directive.
httpapi adds a tiny GET /healthz that returns {"status":"ok"}
(no DB ping yet — added when readiness probes need it).
docker-compose.yml: dev stack on :8080 with named volumes and a
LogMailer; everything via env vars, JWT secret defaulted to a
dev value.
docker-compose.prod.yml: layered overrides — pulls a registry
image, expects LIBRENOTES_* env, sets memory limits and JSON-
file log rotation.
Closes #25.

librenotes
Cloud-native, multi-tenant notes application. A fork of Notesium extended with authentication, per-user data isolation, sync, and PWA support so it can run as a hosted service at librenot.es.
Features
- Markdown notes with bi-directional links (Zettelkasten / evergreen notes)
- Embedded web app — no Electron, no Node runtime, single static binary
- Multi-tenant backend with magic-link authentication (in development)
- Offline-capable PWA with background sync (planned, Phase 4)
Build
Requires Go 1.20 or later.
go build ./cmd/librenotes
This produces a librenotes binary in the current directory. The web
frontend and shell completion are embedded into the binary at compile
time, so no extra files are needed at runtime.
A Makefile with build, test, run, and clean targets is provided
for convenience:
make build
make test
Run
./librenotes web --notes-dir ~/notes
See ./librenotes help for the full command list.
Development setup
A Nix flake provides a reproducible development environment with Go,
build tools, and the project CLIs. Use the plain dev shell for a
non-sandboxed Go toolchain:
nix develop .#dev
Alternatively, build a Docker-based dev environment:
docker build -f Dockerfile.dev -t librenotes-dev .
docker run --rm -it -v "$PWD:/workspace" librenotes-dev
The repository layout follows the standard Go project structure:
cmd/librenotes/ Binary entry point
internal/notesium/ Core notes package (forked from Notesium)
internal/notesium/web/ Embedded frontend assets
The Go module path is git.librete.ch/public/librenotes.
