# GroomBook
> **The open-source scheduling and client management platform built specifically for independent pet groomers** — giving you the tools of enterprise software without the enterprise price tag or vendor lock-in.
**Built for groomers, not corporations.**
---
## Key Features
**Stop chasing confirmations**
- **Customer portal** — Clients confirm or cancel appointments on their own. Reduce no-shows with an automated waitlist.
**Your calendar, your way**
- **iCal calendar feed** — Push GroomBook appointments directly into Google Calendar or Apple Calendar. No app switching.
**Know every pet at a glance**
- **Client & pet records** — Detailed profiles with grooming history, preferences, and breed-specific notes. Full appointment notes for context on every regular.
- **Quick-find search** — Find clients and pets instantly without digging through spreadsheets.
**Staff access without stress**
- **Role-based access control (RBAC)** — Front desk sees bookings; only you see financials. Right access for every role.
**Everything else**
- **Appointment scheduling** — Calendar management for single or multiple groomers
- **Service management** — Pricing, duration, and service catalog
- **POS & invoicing** — Payments, tips, and receipt generation
- **Automated reminders** — SMS and email notifications
- **Reporting dashboard** — Revenue, utilization, and trend analytics
- **Staff impersonation** — Managers can view the customer portal as any client, with full audit logging and session controls
- **PWA** — Installable on mobile devices, works offline

## 🚀 Try the Demo
[**Live Demo**](https://demo.groombook.app) — explore GroomBook without installing anything.
---
## Quick Start
### Docker Compose (recommended for indie groomers)
Run GroomBook on your own hardware in minutes. Everything you need is in the box — no subscription, no vendor lock-in.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/groombook/groombook.git
cd groombook
# Start everything (Postgres + database migrations + API + web UI)
docker compose up --build
```
- **Web UI**: http://localhost:8080
- **API**: http://localhost:3000
The default `docker-compose.yml` sets `AUTH_DISABLED=true` so you can explore the app without configuring an OIDC provider. **Important:** Disable this in any internet-facing deployment.

## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
- Node.js >= 20
- pnpm >= 9 (`npm install -g pnpm`)
- Docker & Docker Compose (for local Postgres)
### Local Development
```bash
# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/groombook/groombook.git
cd groombook
# Install dependencies
pnpm install
# Start local Postgres
docker compose up postgres -d
# Run database migrations
DATABASE_URL=postgres://groombook:groombook@localhost:5432/groombook pnpm db:migrate
# Start API and Web in parallel
pnpm dev
```
API will be available at http://localhost:3000
Web will be available at http://localhost:5173
### Environment Variables
#### API (`apps/api/.env`)
```env
DATABASE_URL=postgres://groombook:groombook@localhost:5432/groombook
OIDC_ISSUER=https://authentik.example.com
OIDC_AUDIENCE=groombook
CORS_ORIGIN=http://localhost:5173
PORT=3000
```
### Running Tests
```bash
# Unit tests (vitest)
pnpm test
# E2E tests (Playwright) — requires the full Docker Compose stack to be running
docker compose up -d --wait
pnpm --filter @groombook/e2e test
# Open the Playwright UI (interactive test runner)
pnpm --filter @groombook/e2e test:ui
# View the last E2E test report
pnpm --filter @groombook/e2e test:report
```
E2E tests target the Docker Compose stack (`http://localhost:8080`). They use API route mocking where needed so happy-path tests are deterministic without requiring seed data.
### Building
```bash
pnpm build
```
## Self-Hosting
### Production Configuration
Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and configure:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
```
Key variables to update for production:
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
| `DATABASE_URL` | PostgreSQL connection string |
| `AUTH_DISABLED` | Set to `false` in production |
| `OIDC_ISSUER` | Authentik issuer URL |
| `OIDC_AUDIENCE` | OAuth2 audience (default: `groombook`) |
| `CORS_ORIGIN` | Public URL of the web frontend |
To use your `.env` file with Docker Compose:
```bash
docker compose --env-file .env up --build
```
### Kubernetes (production-grade deployments)
See the [groombook/infra](https://github.com/groombook/infra) repository for Kubernetes manifests and Flux configuration.
Groom Book is deployed in the `groombook` Kubernetes namespace using:
- **CNPG** for PostgreSQL
- **Authentik** for OIDC authentication
- **Flux** for GitOps-managed deployments
