# Sproutly 🌱 A self-hosted plant growth tracking web app designed to help home gardeners manage their seed starting schedules, growing cycles, and garden transitions — all anchored to their local last frost date. ## Overview Sproutly takes the guesswork out of seed starting. Enter your plant varieties once with their frost-relative timing (e.g. "start 8 weeks before last frost"), set your last frost date, and Sproutly calculates exactly when to start seeds, move to the greenhouse, and transplant to the garden. A daily push notification via [ntfy](https://ntfy.sh) keeps you on track without having to check the app. ## Features - **Dashboard** — at-a-glance view of overdue, today's, and upcoming tasks with a full year planting timeline - **Seed Library** — manage plant varieties with frost-relative timing, germination days, sun/water requirements - **Garden Tracker** — log growing batches and track status from `planned` → `germinating` → `seedling` → `potted up` → `hardening off` → `garden` → `harvested` - **Year Timeline** — visual calendar showing when each variety's stages fall across the year - **Ntfy Notifications** — daily summary push notifications to your phone, configurable time, topic, and authentication - **Settings** — set your last frost date, fall frost date, location, timezone, and notification preferences ## Stack | Layer | Technology | |-----------|-------------------------| | Frontend | Nginx (static HTML/CSS/JS SPA) | | Backend | FastAPI (Python) | | Database | MySQL 8.0 | | Notifications | Ntfy | | Runtime | Docker Compose | ## Getting Started ### Prerequisites - Docker and Docker Compose ### Run ```bash git clone https://git.chns.tech/CooperandGoodman/sproutly.git cd sproutly cp .env.example .env # edit credentials if desired docker compose up --build -d ``` Access the app at **http://localhost:8053** ### First Steps 1. Go to **Settings** and enter your last frost date — this anchors all planting schedule calculations 2. Optionally configure an [ntfy](https://ntfy.sh) topic for push notifications — supports no auth, username/password, or API key/token 3. Browse the pre-loaded **Seed Library** (12 common vegetables, herbs, and flowers included) 4. Start logging batches in **My Garden** as you sow seeds ## Environment Variables Copy `.env` and adjust as needed: ```env MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=sproutly_root_secret MYSQL_USER=sproutly MYSQL_PASSWORD=sproutly_secret ``` ## Project Structure ``` sproutly/ ├── docker-compose.yml ├── .env ├── mysql/ │ └── init.sql # Schema + sample seed varieties ├── backend/ # FastAPI application │ ├── main.py │ ├── models.py │ ├── schemas.py │ ├── database.py │ └── routers/ │ ├── varieties.py │ ├── batches.py │ ├── dashboard.py │ ├── settings.py │ └── notifications.py └── nginx/ ├── nginx.conf └── html/ # Static frontend SPA ├── index.html ├── css/style.css └── js/app.js ``` ## API The FastAPI backend is available at `/api/` and includes automatic docs at **http://localhost:8053/api/docs** Key endpoints: - `GET /api/dashboard/` — dashboard data, tasks, and timeline - `GET/POST/PUT/DELETE /api/varieties/` — seed variety management - `GET/POST/PUT/DELETE /api/batches/` — growing batch management - `GET/PUT /api/settings/` — app settings - `POST /api/notifications/test` — send test ntfy notification - `POST /api/notifications/daily` — trigger daily summary - `GET /api/notifications/log` — recent notification history ## Ntfy Authentication For private ntfy servers or access-controlled topics, the Settings page supports three auth modes: | Mode | When to use | |------|-------------| | None | Public ntfy.sh topics | | Username & Password | ntfy server with basic auth enabled | | API Key / Token | ntfy account access token (generate in ntfy account settings) | ## Status Core infrastructure is functional.
