Features

• Blazing Fast — Built on uv for near-instant CLI response times
• Smart Init — Auto-detects and installs dependencies (uv sync / pnpm install), auto-installs uv if missing
• One-Click Deploy — Deploy the full stack (Backend + Frontend + PostgreSQL + Redis + Nginx SSL) with a single hohu deploy
• Source Build — Build Docker images from your modified source code with hohu build, then deploy
• Database Migrations — Run migrations and seed data via hohu migrate
• Context-Aware — Run commands from any subdirectory via .hohu project config
• i18n — Full Chinese & English support with automatic system language detection
• Polished UX — Rich-formatted output with interactive prompts via Questionary

About hohu-admin

hohu-admin is an enterprise-grade full-stack admin management platform built for the AI era. It provides a complete set of production-ready backend infrastructure out of the box — user authentication, RBAC permission control, distributed ID generation, database migration, log monitoring, and API documentation — so developers can focus on business innovation instead of repetitive boilerplate.

Highlights

• Async High Performance — Full async pipeline (FastAPI + SQLAlchemy 2.0 async + PostgreSQL)
• Distributed Snowflake ID — Time-ordered, high-performance primary keys with automatic BigInt → string serialization
• RBAC Permission Model — User-Role-Menu based access control with button-level granularity
• Dual Auth Support — OAuth2 form login (Swagger UI) + JSON login (SPA), with Redis token blacklist
• Unified API Response — Consistent {code, message, data} envelope across all endpoints
• Auto Case Conversion — Backend snake_case ↔ Frontend camelCase via Pydantic alias_generator

Projects

Project	Description	Tech Stack
hohu-admin	Backend API	FastAPI, SQLAlchemy 2.0 (async), PostgreSQL, Redis
hohu-admin-web	Admin dashboard	Vue 3, NaiveUI, UnoCSS, Pinia, TypeScript
hohu-admin-app	Mobile app	uni-app, Vue 3, Wot Design Uni, alova

Quick Start

Install

# uv (recommended)
uv tool install hohu

# pip
pip install hohu

Update

# uv
uv tool upgrade hohu

# pip
pip install --upgrade hohu

Create a Project

hohu create my-project

Confirm each component (Backend / Frontend / App) interactively. Defaults to hohu-admin if no name is given.

Install Dependencies

cd my-project
hohu init

Automatically detects project config and installs all dependencies.

Windows Users: If hohu init fails with EPERM: operation not permitted, symlink, try the following:

1. Enable Developer Mode in Windows Settings: Settings → Update & Security → For developers → Developer Mode. This allows symlink creation without admin privileges.
2. Run your terminal as Administrator.
3. Check your antivirus software (e.g., 360, Huorong) — some may block symlink creation. Try adding the project directory to the exclusion list or temporarily disabling real-time protection.

Development Server

hohu dev launches all services in a single terminal with merged, color-coded log output.

hohu dev          # Start all components
hohu dev -o be    # Backend only
hohu dev -s app   # Frontend + Backend, skip App
hohu dev -t mp    # App in WeChat Mini Program mode

Options

Option	Short	Description	Default
--app-target	-t	App runtime: h5 / mp / app	h5
--only	-o	Only start specified components (repeatable)	all
--skip	-s	Skip specified components (repeatable)	none

Component aliases (case-insensitive): be / backend, fe / frontend, app

Log Colors

Prefix	Color	Service
[Backend]	green	FastAPI
[Frontend]	cyan	Vite / pnpm
[App]	yellow	Uni-app

Press Ctrl+C for graceful shutdown — all child processes are terminated cleanly.

Build

Build Docker images from local source code. After building, run hohu deploy to deploy with the locally built images.

hohu build                  # Build all components
hohu build --only=backend   # Build backend only
hohu build --only=frontend  # Build frontend only
hohu build --no-cache       # Build without cache
hohu build --tag=v1.0.0     # Custom image tag
hohu build --reset          # Reset to official GHCR images

Automatically initializes .hohu/deploy/ (config, .env, secrets) on first run — no need to run hohu deploy init separately. Switch back to official images anytime with hohu build --reset.

Deployment

Deploy the full stack to a Linux server with Docker Compose. Includes PostgreSQL, Redis, Nginx (SSL termination), and the application services.

Quick Start

Source build deploy:

hohu build          # Build images (auto-initializes deploy config)
hohu deploy         # Deploy

Official image deploy:

hohu deploy init    # Initialize deployment config and generate .env
hohu deploy         # Pull images and deploy

Edit .hohu/deploy/.env to set passwords, SECRET_KEY, and SSL certificate path before deploying.

Deploy Commands

hohu deploy          # One-click deploy (pull → migrate → start)
hohu deploy init     # Initialize deployment directory and .env
hohu deploy pull     # Pull latest images and restart
hohu deploy ps       # Show service status
hohu deploy logs     # View logs (-f to follow)
hohu deploy restart  # Restart services
hohu deploy down     # Stop all services
hohu migrate         # Run database migrations only

Deploy Options

hohu deploy --init          # Also seed database (create admin user and menus)
hohu deploy --no-migrate    # Skip database migrations

External PostgreSQL / Redis

By default, PostgreSQL and Redis run as Docker containers. To use your own instances, edit .hohu/deploy/.env:

# Disable built-in PostgreSQL
ENABLE_POSTGRES=false
DATABASE_URL=postgresql+asyncpg://user:password@your-pg-host:5432/dbname

# Disable built-in Redis
ENABLE_REDIS=false
REDIS_HOST=your-redis-host
REDIS_PASSWORD=your-redis-password

When disabled, the corresponding containers won't start and the application connects to your external instances.

Architecture

Internet → Nginx (SSL) → hohu-admin-web → hohu-admin-api → PostgreSQL + Redis

SSL Certificates

Place your certificate files in .hohu/deploy/ssl/:

ssl/
├── fullchain.pem
└── privkey.pem

For Let's Encrypt, point SSL_CERT_PATH in .env to the certbot output directory.
