[https://pocketbase.io/ Pocketbase] is a realtime backend, meant as an alternative to Firebase and Supabase.

== Example config ==
The following setup is based on recommendations from https://pocketbase.io/docs/going-to-production/<syntaxhighlight lang="nixos">
systemd.services.pocketbase = {
script = "${pkgs.pocketbase}/bin/pocketbase serve --encryptionEnv=PB_ENCRYPTION_KEY --dir /path/to/pb_data";
serviceConfig = {
LimitNOFILE = 4096;
EnvironmentFile = ["/path/to/secret"];
};
wantedBy = [ "multi-user.target" ];
};

# You can replace caddy with another reverse proxy (or none, albeit generally not recommended) if wanted
services.caddy = {
enable = true;
virtualHosts = {
"pocketbase.example.com".extraConfig = ''
request_body {
max_size 10MB
}
reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:8090 {
transport http {
read_timeout 360s
}
}
'';
};
};
</syntaxhighlight>Then, at '''/path/to/secret'''<syntaxhighlight line="1">
PB_ENCRYPTION_KEY=32_CHARACTER_STRING
</syntaxhighlight>{{Note|You can run openssl rand -base64 32 to generate a random string}}
