 "title": "Run PRINTFILM locally with Docker in about 30 minutes",
 "page_title": "How to run PRINTFILM locally with Docker in about 30 minutes with Printfilm",
 "summary": "Start the full stack on your own machine and open the user site, admin site, and API docs.",
 "who": "A developer or creator who wants to see the platform running before deciding whether to use it for real content.",
 "problem": "Setting up a multi-service AI video platform by hand takes time, and the user needs to know it works before adding API keys.",
 "outcome": "The user site at localhost:8080, admin at localhost:8081, and API docs at localhost:8000/docs are running, with the health check passing.",
 "steps": [
  "Clone the repo with `git clone https://github.com/yi1108/printfilm.git`, then run `cd printfilm`.",
  "Create the env file with `cp deploy/.env.docker.example deploy/.env.docker`, then set POSTGRES_PASSWORD, SECRET_KEY, and OPENAI_API_KEY / ARK_API_KEY. For a no-key preview, set ARK_MOCK=true.",
  "Start the stack with `docker compose --env-file deploy/.env.docker up -d`, then wait about half a minute.",
  "Check the API with `http://localhost:8000/api/health` in a browser or with curl, then open http://localhost:8080 and register at /auth.",
  "Check status with `docker compose --env-file deploy/.env.docker ps` and read logs with `docker compose --env-file deploy/.env.docker logs -f api` if a service does not start."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the printfilm repo, copy deploy/.env.docker.example to deploy/.env.docker, set ARK_MOCK=true and strong values for POSTGRES_PASSWORD and SECRET_KEY, then run docker compose --env-file deploy/.env.docker up -d. Output the status from docker compose ps and confirm that http://localhost:8000/api/health responds.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says the repo has no built-in demo account, so you must register first, and real image or video generation needs a TokenFree key instead of ARK_MOCK=true.",
 "category": "Content",
 "tags": [
  "Content"
 ],
 "lang": "python",
 "requirements": [
  "Docker Desktop, or Docker Engine with Compose",
  "A TokenFree API key (sk-...), or set ARK_MOCK=true to try the interface without real generation",
  "Ports 8000, 8080, and 8081 free on the host machine"
