Postgres envs
@Classified (C Hilde) not really, what is your use case ? You can activate SSL or not in order to make it work with remote and local DBs but that's it

Postgres envs
Hello @Classified (C Hilde) it seams that the credentials are not used correctly. Are you using Postgres in local ? If this is the case this is a possible .env file:
Explanation:
-
DB_HOST is the server name: localhost in local or it could be an URL if in remote
- DB_PORT should be a number (default 5432)
- DB_USERNAME and DB_PASSWORD are usually postgres by defaul on local
- DB_SSL was omitted (default false) as there is no SSL certificate on local (set to true if using remote managed DBs)
- DB_PATH is only for SQlite so it should not be specified.
Here is the complete documentation: https://manifest.build/docs/config#database
Let me know how it goes !9 replies

Does Manifest supports server less deployment ?
Hello @Blaise unforunately not yet for both. You can switch to Postgres and go to for example neon.tech to host your DB and we are currently working on S3 storage. Should come on the following weeks ! Sorry for the delay

Data cleaned-up after each deploy
Hello @Ararat Martirossyan we just published a new version (https://github.com/mnfst/manifest/releases/tag/manifest%404.7.0) with PostgreSQL compatibility in order to have DB persistence. It's easy to setup and does not change anything on the app level, you can use it even if not familiar with Postgres.
Indeed most Platform-as-a-Service services (like DO app platform) use ephemeral data that gets deleted after each deploy/restart. This is not the case in traditional VM hosting (DO droplet) or bare metal servers.
We still have the issue for file/image uploads (if you use those property types) and we are currently working on an adapter for S3 storage services for data persistence regarding files.
Let me know if it does the job !
Quick note: Sqlite on S3 is not a good idea as Manifest would need to download and upload the whole DB at each write operation.

Does Manifest supports server less deployment ?
Hello @Blaise sorry for the delay, it depends on what you expect:
if you want to use Astro SSG with Manifest you can run Manifest locally and edit your data and then build your Astro static website.
However this method is not using a live API for the data. If you want to update your content, even a single coma, you will need to build again and deploy. This method is really adapted for small websites/apps that do not change often. It offers great performance for users and simplifies hosting.
If you want to have a "real" API with live create/read operations you will need to have some storage for the database. You can go Serverless + a DBaaS like neon.tech for example. What's your usual provider ?

Vercel
Hello @BotProgrammer if I am correct Vercel is mostly for front-end (unless some specific nextjs backend logic) and will not be able to power Manifest database and storage.
We are working this week on preparing material to help deployments on popular platforms. Which one would you prefer ? Please answer here https://github.com/mnfst/manifest/discussions/310

Hello @aitorroma thank you very much for your message !!
The features requested are really nice. Some of them are on our roadmap and some of them are already developped. We have endpoints now that you can use for performing calculations or custom logic in JavaScript: https://manifest.build/docs/endpoints

can i have a roadmap to build a py version
Hello @cheri we have a roadmap on the homepage: https://manifest.build/
Not so much in it as we are still in an exploring phase. Our current main topic is integrating developer's custom logic. After that we will work on improving stability.
What kind of Phyton version do you want to build ? You want to replace the YAML ?

API Endpoint to return all singles
@Father Friday you should not give access to the YAML file to someone to create a page, Manifest has an admin panel for that, you can give them credentials to the admin panel instead.
YAML file => DB structure (among others)
Admin panel => Record management (CRUD)

API Endpoint to return all singles
Hi @Father Friday , technically you could call the
/api/manifest (https://demo-singles.manifest.build/api#/Manifest/get_api_manifest) to get a list of all entities and then return the slugs of it. However on many use cases it can make sense to hard code those slugs as you are going to use them in the interface and give them individual names. What is the reason to have those slugs dynamic ?8 replies
