- Default to Docker service networking (http://frontend:3000) in both
compose files — works when all services run in Docker
- Add extra_hosts (host.docker.internal:host-gateway) for cross-platform
host access when running frontend outside Docker
- Document override examples in .env.example for local dev and
custom domain setups
- Create app/api/zero/query/route.ts — resolves named queries to ZQL
using handleQueryRequest and mustGetQuery from @rocicorp/zero
- Add ZERO_QUERY_URL to both docker-compose files:
- dev: http://host.docker.internal:3000 (reaches local Next.js from Docker)
- prod: http://frontend:3000 (Docker service networking)
Without this endpoint, zero-cache cannot resolve named queries and
no data syncs to the client.
- Add rocicorp/zero:0.26.2 service with Postgres connection,
SQLite replica volume, healthcheck, and admin password
- Add NEXT_PUBLIC_ZERO_CACHE_URL to frontend env vars
- Frontend now depends on zero-cache health
Remove all Electric SQL client code, Docker service, env vars, CI build
args, install scripts, and documentation. Feature hooks that depend on
Electric are intentionally left in place to be rewritten with Rocicorp
Zero in subsequent commits.
Deleted:
- lib/electric/ (client.ts, context.ts, auth.ts, baseline.ts)
- ElectricProvider.tsx
- docker/scripts/init-electric-user.sh
- content/docs/how-to/electric-sql.mdx
Cleaned:
- package.json (4 @electric-sql/* deps)
- app/layout.tsx, UserDropdown.tsx, LayoutDataProvider.tsx
- docker-compose.yml, docker-compose.dev.yml
- Dockerfile, docker-entrypoint.js
- .env.example (frontend, docker, backend)
- CI workflows, install scripts, docs
- Updated the Docker Compose file to use the latest SearXNG image version 2026.3.13-3c1f68c59.
- Added creation of the 'searxng' directory in installation scripts for better organization.
- Included new configuration files (settings.yml and limiter.toml) in the installation process.
- Consolidated volume mappings for SearXNG to use a single directory.
- Removed unnecessary port mappings and legacy data volume definitions.
- Updated web search service documentation to clarify Redis usage and circuit breaker implementation, eliminating Redis dependency for circuit breaker logic.
- Added SearXNG service configuration to Docker setup, including environment variables and health checks.
- Introduced new settings management for web search in the frontend, allowing users to enable/disable and configure search engines and language preferences.
- Updated backend to support web search functionality, including database schema changes and service integration.
- Implemented health check endpoint for the web search service and integrated it into the application.
- Removed legacy SearXNG API connector references in favor of the new platform service approach.
