🐳 Docker Deployment

For projects with Redis, Celery, or external databases:

# Production deployment with all services
docker-compose up --build

# Run in background
docker-compose up -d --build

This starts:

  • FastAPI application (port 8000)
  • Database (MySQL/PostgreSQL)
  • Redis (if enabled)
  • Celery worker & beat (if enabled)
  • Automatic database migrations

🛠️ Commands

Create New Project

forge init <project-name>     # Interactive mode
forge init forge-project --no-interactive  # Use defaults

Check Version

forge --version
