Deployment

All runtime paths are resolved relative to the repository by default and can be overridden with environment variables.

• LS_DATABASE_URL: SQLAlchemy database URL.
• LS_REPLAY_MEDIA_DIR: server-local directory containing replay files.

Linux and macOS

Run ./start.sh. The script resolves its own directory and does not depend on /workspace.

Windows

1. Create a virtual environment with py -m venv backend\.venv.
2. Install dependencies with backend\.venv\Scripts\pip install -r backend\requirements.txt.
3. Optionally set LS_REPLAY_MEDIA_DIR to an absolute media directory.
4. Run powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\start.ps1.
5. In another terminal, run npm install and npm run dev from frontend.

Replay records store paths relative to LS_REPLAY_MEDIA_DIR. Absolute paths and parent-directory traversal are rejected.
