Summary

docker-compose.yml embeds postgres:postgres credentials directly in the file. Anyone with read access to the repo can read the database password.

Work to do

  • Create a .env.example file listing POSTGRES_USER, POSTGRES_PASSWORD, and any other secrets with placeholder values.
  • Update docker-compose.yml to read those values from environment variables (using ${POSTGRES_USER} syntax) rather than hardcoding them.
  • Add .env to .gitignore if not already present.
  • Update the development setup docs to describe copying .env.example to .env.

Acceptance criteria

  • docker-compose.yml contains no literal postgres:postgres or similar credential strings.
  • docker compose up works after creating a local .env from .env.example.
  • .env is gitignored.

Already resolved. docker-compose.yml uses ${POSTGRES_USER}, ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}, ${POSTGRES_DB} env var substitution. .env.example has placeholder values. .env is in .gitignore. No plaintext credentials remain. Closing.
