-# obsidian-note-sharing
+# 📝 Noteshare.space
+
+**[Noteshare.space](https://noteshare.space)** is a service for sharing encrypted Markdown notes from Obsidian. Notes are end-to-end-encrypted and are only stored temporarily.
+
+I created this service largely for my own use, as I was tired of relying on third-party services to quickly share some Markdown notes I wrote in Obsidian. Because I believe that others may find this useful, I chose to make it available as a public service.

+
+
+## Local development
+
+Each subproject (plugin, server, and webapp) is its own npm package with its own configuration and build tooling:
+
+```
+| (root)
+|-- package.json
+|-- docker-compose.yml
+|-- plugin/        // (Obsidian plugin, as submodule at mcndt/obsidian-note-sharing)
+	|-- package.json
+	|-- Dockerfile
+|-- server/        // (Express + Prisma + SQLite)
+	|-- package.json
+	|-- Dockerfile
+	|-- prisma/
+		|--- Dockerfile
+|-- webapp/        // (SvelteKit web application)
+	|-- package.json
+	|-- Dockerfile
+```
+
+It is necessary to run `npm install` in every subproject as well as the root.
+
+The root package.json contains a `dev` script to facilitate simultaneous development of all three components:
+
+```bash
+npm run dev
+```
+
+Running the script starts a dev server for each, recompiling code on file changes. A reverse proxy (`proxy.js` in project root) runs the entire application at `http://localhost:5000`.
+
+Before you can store notes in the local development environment, you must migrate the local SQLite database (see next section).
+
+### Local database
+
+**SQLite** is used to store encrypted notes during local development as well as in production.
+
+Before you can store notes during local development, you must migrate the local database:
+
+```bash
+npx prisma migrate deploy
+```
+
+To update the schema and add new migrations, please take a look at the [Prisma docs](https://www.prisma.io/docs/concepts/components/prisma-migrate).
+
+### Docker Compose
+
+You can run the docker-compose configuration used on the production server locally using the `docker-compose.yml` file provided in the project root directory:
+
+```bash
+docker-compose up --build
+```
+
+The compose configuration will:
+
+1. Build images for the storage server, frontend app, and database migration service.
+2. Mount a persistent volume for the SQLite database
+3. Run [Traefik](https://traefik.io/traefik/) reverse proxy on port 5000
+4. Automatically run `prisma migrate deploy` to keep the database schema up-to-date.
+5. Start the storage service and web application after succesfuly database migration.
+
+## Environment variables
+
+Both the **webapp** and **server** have use environment variables for configuration.
+
+The documentation for the environment variables of each process are kept in the `.env.example` files in their respective subdirectories.
+
+### Setting environment variables in production
+
+`.env` files are not used in docker-compose deployments.
+
+Most env variables are set in the docker-compose file directly using the `environment` property. Build-time variables are set using the `args` property. See `docker-compose.yml` for an example.
+
+## Deployment
+
+I currently deploy the server + webapp using **Docker-compose**.
+
+The host web server must combine the two services (webapp at port 3000, server at port 8080) into a single HTTPS service using a reverse proxy. I used [Traefik](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/getting-started/quick-start/) in the example docker-compose. The following route mapping must be applied:
+
+1. `https/POST @ /api/note` -> `http://0.0.0.0:8080/api/note`
+2. `https/GET @ *` → `http://0.0.0.0:3000/*`
+
+The reverse proxy is already set up for HTTP in the example docker compose file. some adaptations are still needed to enable TLS.
+
+> [!Warning] Don’t forget to set up TLS!
+> When deploying the application, it is strongly encouraged to run all traffic to the Traefik entrypoint over TLS, e.g. using a self-signed certificate or a cert signed by [letsencrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/).
+
+### Caching
+
+To limit load on the origin server, traffic to `https://noteshare.space/note/*` is proxied through Cloudflare servers. By default, Cloudflare does not cache HTML content.
+
+To enable this, I added a **custom page rule** on `noteshare.space/note/*` to cache all content.
