Giorgio Gilestro 2b9cd875b4 deps: add requirements.lock for reproducible builds
pyproject.toml uses range pins (>=) for all dependencies; without a
lockfile, a fresh `pip install .` on a different day could pull
materially different versions of fastapi, sqlalchemy, httpx, etc.
For a production-shaped service that's a reproducibility risk —
especially since we don't run a CI pipeline that would catch
"works on yesterday's container, fails on today's."

requirements.lock pins every transitive dep (60 packages) to the
exact versions running in the test container today. Dockerfile is
updated so both stages install from the lockfile first, then install
the project itself with --no-deps:

  pip install -r requirements.lock
  pip install --no-deps .

That way pyproject.toml's range pins document our compatible
upper-and-lower bounds, but the lockfile is what actually gets
installed on every build.

To bump deps later: bump pyproject.toml ranges, rebuild a fresh
venv, `pip freeze` it, save back to requirements.lock.

Read the Markets

Containerised macro-strategy dashboard — hourly market data, RSS news, Trading 212 portfolio, and an AI-generated strategic log written by Cassandra, the in-product seer. Read-only by design.

Production:

The Python package is still named cassandra and several internal identifiers (cookie names, advisory-lock keys, CASSANDRA_TOKEN env var, CSS filename) keep the legacy name on purpose — renaming them would invalidate live sessions / locks / configs for no user benefit. See app/branding.py for the brand single-source-of-truth.

Quick start (local dev)

cp .env.example .env       # fill in API keys; set CASSANDRA_TOKEN if exposing
docker compose up --build  # db + app + scheduler + daily backup sidecar
open http://localhost:8000/  # or whichever CASSANDRA_PORT you set

docker-compose.override.yml is auto-loaded and adds the host port binding so the app is reachable on localhost.

Production (VPS, NPM-fronted)

Always invoke with explicit -f flags — that way the dev override is skipped and the prod overlay (no host port, joins the external intranet Docker network, uvicorn on port 80) is applied:

docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build

Point Nginx Proxy Manager at upstream readmarkets-app-1:80.

Architecture

  • app (FastAPI + Jinja2 + HTMX) — web dashboard on port 8000
  • scheduler (APScheduler) — hourly ingestion jobs (market, news, portfolio, AI log)
  • db (MariaDB 11) — quotes, headlines, portfolio snapshots, strategic logs, job runs
  • backup (sidecar) — daily mariadb-dump to ./backup/

See /home/gg/.claude/plans/ok-i-think-this-tidy-lake.md for the design plan.

Config

File Purpose
config/default.toml Universal data tables: indicator groups, RSS feeds, keyword presets
config/portfolio.toml User-specific portfolios (overrides default.toml)
.env Secrets and runtime knobs — mounted read-only into containers

Endpoints

  • GET / — dashboard
  • GET /portfolio/{name} — portfolio detail
  • GET /news — news feed
  • GET /log — strategic-log archive
  • GET /api/health — job status (last success / failure per job)

All authenticated routes require Authorization: Bearer $CASSANDRA_TOKEN if the env is set; if unset, the app is open (LAN-only mode).
