- The dev server runs through Portless. Start it with `bun run dev`, then use `portless get zerobyte` to get the current worktree-specific URL. Do not assume a fixed port like `3000` or `4096`. Username is `admin` and password is `password`

Zerobyte is a backup automation tool built on top of Restic that provides a web interface for scheduling, managing, and monitoring encrypted backups. It supports multiple volume backends (NFS, SMB, WebDAV, SFTP, local directories) and repository backends (S3, Azure, GCS, local, and rclone-based storage).
### Development Server
```bash
# Start the dev server through Portless
bun run dev
# Get the current app URL for this worktree
portless get zerobyte
# Inspect active Portless routes if needed
portless list
```
Portless applies git worktree prefixes automatically, so linked worktrees may return URLs like `https://branch-name.zerobyte.localhost`. Use the Portless URL for browser testing and manual verification.
### Type Checking

### Environment variables
| Variable | Description | Default |
| :-------------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :--------------------- |
| `BASE_URL` | **Required.** The base URL of your Zerobyte instance (e.g., `https://zerobyte.example.com`). See [Authentication](#authentication) below. | (none) |
| `APP_SECRET` | **Required.** A random secret key (32+ chars) used to encrypt sensitive data in the database. Generate with `openssl rand -hex 32`. | (none) |
| `APP_SECRET_FILE` | Path to a file containing `APP_SECRET`, useful with Docker or Kubernetes secrets. Mutually exclusive with `APP_SECRET`. | (none) |
| `PORT` | The port the web interface and API will listen on. | `4096` |
| `RESTIC_HOSTNAME` | The hostname used by Restic when creating snapshots. Automatically detected if a custom hostname is set in Docker. | `zerobyte` |
| `TZ` | Timezone for the container (e.g., `Europe/Zurich`). **Crucial for accurate backup scheduling.** | `UTC` |
| `TRUST_PROXY` | When `true`, trust an existing `X-Forwarded-For` header from your reverse proxy. Leave `false` for direct deployments. | `false` |
| `TRUSTED_ORIGINS` | Comma-separated list of extra trusted origins for CORS (e.g., `http://localhost:3000,http://example.com`). | (none) |
| `WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_ORIGINS` | Comma-separated list of HTTP origins allowed for backup webhooks and outbound HTTP notification destinations. | (none) |
| `WEBHOOK_TIMEOUT` | Timeout for backup webhook requests in seconds. | `60` |
| `LOG_LEVEL` | Logging verbosity. Options: `debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`. | `info` |
| `SERVER_IDLE_TIMEOUT` | Idle timeout for the server in seconds. | `60` |
| `RCLONE_CONFIG_DIR` | Path to the directory containing `rclone.conf` inside the container. Change this if running as a non-root user. | `/root/.config/rclone` |
| `PROVISIONING_PATH` | Path to a JSON file with operator-managed repositories and volumes to sync at startup. | (none) |
