Giorgio Gilestro fb71854238 i18n: style the settings select + add a topbar lang toggle
Two issues addressed:

1. The /settings language <select> was unstyled — .settings-select and
   .settings-status classes didn't exist, so the dropdown rendered
   with full native browser chrome and clashed visually with the rest
   of the panel. Added a terminal-aesthetic select: transparent
   background, 1px var(--border), custom chevron via crossed
   linear-gradients, accent border on focus/hover. Disabled options
   (ES/FR/DE 'coming soon') render in --dim.

2. Added a compact EN | IT pill in the topbar next to the theme
   toggle, mirroring the .tone-toggle visual rhythm. Shown only when
   a user is signed in (admins skipped). Optimistic UI: clicking
   flips the pill immediately, PATCHes /api/settings/language, and
   reverts on failure. On /log specifically the page reloads so the
   user sees the localized version of the strategic log right away.

The /settings dropdown still surfaces all five languages (with ES/FR/DE
disabled) for visibility; the topbar pill keeps to the two active
languages to stay compact.

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).
