What is Primora?

Primora is a self-hosted backend platform: organizations, projects, auth, S3-style object storage, JSON document collections, scoped API keys, and a full audit log behind one dashboard. Inspired by the UX of Appwrite and Supabase, with no hosted tier - your data stays on your hardware.

Features

  • Organizations & projects - workspaces with scoped org and project roles.
  • Auth - email/password plus optional GitHub, Google, Discord, and Microsoft OAuth. JWTs verified by the API against JWKS.
  • Storage - S3-style buckets on your local filesystem, public or private.
  • Collections - schema-flexible JSON documents in Postgres JSONB.
  • API keys - prm_<prefix>_<secret> credentials, shown once.
  • Audit log - every mutating request recorded, with CSV/JSON export.
  • Demo mode - fully client-side seeded workspace via ?demo=true.

Architecture

Browser ──▶ Nginx ──▶ Frontend (SolidJS + Vite)
                 ├──▶ Auth service (Better Auth + Hono)
                 └──▶ API (Go + Gin) ──▶ PostgreSQL
                                     ──▶ DragonflyDB (Redis-compatible cache)
                                     ──▶ Local filesystem object storage

Quick Start

Prerequisites: Docker with the Compose plugin.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Dvorinka/Primora/master/install.sh | bash

Installs into ./primora, generates secrets, and starts the stack on port 80. Or from a clone:

git clone https://github.com/Dvorinka/Primora.git && cd Primora
./scripts/setup.sh          # creates .env, generates secrets, starts the stack

Then open http://localhost - or append ?demo=true to explore a seeded workspace without signing up. For prebuilt images, native development, port conflicts, and troubleshooting see QUICK_START.md.

Configuration

All configuration lives in .env - see .env.example for the annotated list and QUICK_START.md for the important ones.

Ecosystem

  • CLI - primora for orgs, projects, buckets, objects, keys, and audit from the terminal.
  • MCP server - exposes primora_* tools to MCP clients.
  • Desktop - Tauri 2 shell connecting to your deployment, with tray presence.
  • PWA - the dashboard is installable on mobile and desktop browsers.
