/search gains a `setting` category, `<node>.<setting>` under its flow with the node type and the value in a new `detail` field, so Ctrl-K finds which node uses a broker or a timeout and opens the node. `setting_text` is the one place that decides what may be said: a reference to a stored secret shows its name (to superusers only, as the secrets list does), a plain value in an `x-secret` field or under a key like password, token or api_key is masked and never indexed, nested credentials in headers or query are masked, long values are clipped. The global search ranks what contains the query as typed ahead of loose spellings before it caps a group, which long setting values would otherwise have crowded out.
Fluksio App
Connect a few nodes, give their messages names, and let Fluksio handle the running. Use live flows for automation and batch runs for experiments, with dashboards to see what happened.
This repository holds the FastAPI backend, flow engine and dashboard SPA. The Docker image serves all three on one port.
Layout
backend/ FastAPI + SQLModel + Alembic + SQLite
fluksio/flow/ the flow engine (nodes, pipeline, state backends, controller)
fluksio/cli.py `fluksio serve` / `enroll` / `worker`
worker/ the `fluksio-worker` distribution: the agent and the node runner
frontend/ React 19 + TanStack Router + Tailwind 4 + shadcn/ui
docs/ the public documentation site (zensical), served on docs.${DOMAIN}
compose.yml the single container, as the getting-started guide runs it
docker/ the operator stack: compose.yml → compose.dev.yml → compose.local.yml (+ compose.traefik.yml)
scripts/ generate-client.sh, test.sh
Install without Docker
Start an engine with Python 3.12 or newer on Linux or macOS:
pip install fluksio
fluksio serve
For the optional browser portal, sign up at fluksio.com and add an instance. Use the code it gives you:
fluksio enroll <code>
Your engine also works without enrollment. A machine that only runs nodes for another engine needs just the worker package:
pip install fluksio-worker
FLUKSIO_WORKER_TOKEN='<worker-token>' fluksio-worker \
--url wss://fluksio.example.com/api/v1/workers/attach --labels gpu
Replace the example address with your engine's URL and create a token as described in Remote workers.
Getting started
Needs Docker with Compose v2, on x86-64 or arm64 such as a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5.
docker compose up -d # http://localhost:8080
docker compose logs fluksio # the admin password, printed once
Optional features (MQTT, InfluxDB, mail, …) are build-time extras; see EXTRAS in
compose.yml.
For development, with hot reload behind Traefik on port 80 (also needs make and openssl):
make init # once: .env with generated secrets, `proxy` network, prints the admin login
make dev-local # full stack at http://app.localhost
make down # stop it
Without Docker:
make install # uv sync + bun install
make dev-utils # proxy and mailcatcher only
make dev-backend # FastAPI on :8000, hot reload
make dev-frontend # Vite on :5173
make test # pytest + Playwright (the e2e half on its own stack, behind make dev's Traefik)
make lint # ruff + mypy + biome
make generate-client # regenerate the frontend SDK from the OpenAPI schema
make help lists every target. See Development for stack
options and checks.
Documentation
The public site lives in docs/ and is built with zensical:
make docs-serve # live preview on :8000
make docs # static build into ./site
It is served at docs.${DOMAIN} by the docs service in docker/compose.yml,
and .gitea/workflows/docs.yml builds it with --strict on every push.
