cd qr-master
```

2. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```

3. Copy and configure environment:
```bash
cp env.example .env
```
Edit `.env` and set:
   - `NEXTAUTH_SECRET` (generate: `openssl rand -base64 32`)

```bash
npm run docker:dev
```

5. Run migrations and seed:
```bash
npm run db:migrate
npm run db:seed
```

```bash
npm run dev
```

7. Access the application:
   - **App**: http://localhost:3050
   - **Database UI**: http://localhost:8080 (Adminer)
   - **Database**: localhost:5432
   - **Redis**: localhost:6379

#### Option 2: Full Docker (Production)

Run everything in Docker:

1. Clone and setup:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/qr-master.git
cd qr-master
cp env.example .env
# Edit .env with your configuration
```

2. Build and start:
```bash
npm run docker:prod
```

3. Run migrations:
```bash
docker-compose exec web npx prisma migrate deploy
```

4. Access at http://localhost:3050

## Development

### Available Scripts

```bash
# Development
npm run dev                 # Start Next.js dev server
npm run build              # Build for production
npm run start              # Start production server

# Database
npm run db:generate        # Generate Prisma Client
npm run db:migrate         # Run migrations (dev)
npm run db:deploy          # Deploy migrations (prod)
npm run db:seed            # Seed database
npm run db:studio          # Open Prisma Studio

# Docker
npm run docker:dev         # Start DB & Redis only
npm run docker:dev:stop    # Stop dev services
npm run docker:prod        # Start full stack
npm run docker:stop        # Stop all services
npm run docker:logs        # View logs
npm run docker:db          # PostgreSQL CLI

```

### Local Development (without Docker)

1. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```

2. Set up PostgreSQL and Redis locally

3. Configure `.env` with local database URL:
```env
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/qrmaster?schema=public
```

4. Run migrations:
```bash
npm run db:migrate
npm run db:seed
```

5. Start dev server:
```bash
npm run dev
```

## Deployment

### Docker (Recommended for Self-Hosting)

The application includes production-ready Docker configuration with PostgreSQL and Redis:

```bash
# Build and start all services
docker-compose up -d --build

# Run migrations
docker-compose exec web npx prisma migrate deploy

# View logs
docker-compose logs -f
```

For detailed deployment instructions, see [DOCKER_SETUP.md](DOCKER_SETUP.md).
