Running Your App

You’ve created your BlazorSaas app—now let’s get it running. The setup-env Nuke target configures everything you need, from database to API keys.

Prerequisites

• Nuke.build
• Docker (for local dev with containers)
• Accounts with Stripe, Postmark, and a local PostgreSQL instance

Install Nuke.build

Install Nuke as a global tool:

dotnet tool install Nuke.GlobalTool --global

Run the Setup

1. From your app folder (e.g., MyApplication), run:

   dotnet nuke setup-env

   This triggers the setup process, generating a .env file and updating app settings.

2. Provide Settings: The script prompts you for:

   • Database: Host (default: localhost), port (default: 5432), name, username, password.
   • Redis: Connection string (default: localhost:6379).
   • Admin Account: Email (default: [email protected]), password.
   • Stripe: API key, webhook signature (get these from https://stripe.com).
   • Postmark: API key, from email (get the key from https://postmarkapp.com).
   • Addresses: API and web addresses (e.g., api.myapplication.com, myapplication.com).

3. Launch It: Once configured, run:

   docker-compose up

Your app should be live at https://localhost:7000 and your API should be live at https://localhost:7001
