PostPipe FastAPI Connector

This is a self-hosted connector for PostPipe built in Python (FastAPI). It acts as a secure bridge between PostPipe's Ingest API and your private database.

🚀 Getting Started

1. Installation

pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Configuration

Copy .env.example to .env and fill in your details:

POSTPIPE_CONNECTOR_ID=pp_conn_...
JWT_SECRET=...                  # Keep this secret!
DB_TYPE=mongodb                 # mongodb | postgres

3. Run Locally

uvicorn app.main:app --reload --port 3000

The server will listen on port 3000. Endpoint: POST http://localhost:3000/postpipe/ingest

⚡ Deployment on Vercel

The connector is configured to be deployed to Vercel as a Serverless Function out-of-the-box using the provided vercel.json.

Steps:

1. Install Vercel CLI (if not already installed):

   npm i -g vercel

2. Deploy via Vercel CLI: Navigate to the static-system/my-connector-fastapi directory and run:

   vercel

   Follow the prompts to link the project and deploy it.

3. Configure Environment Variables: In your Vercel Dashboard (Project Settings > Environment Variables), add the required environment variables:

   • POSTPIPE_CONNECTOR_ID
   • JWT_SECRET
   • DB_TYPE (mongodb or postgres)
   • DATABASE_URL / MONGODB_URI (depending on your database type)
   • Any other env variables used by your selected database adapter.

4. Deploy to Production: Once configured, deploy to production:

   vercel --prod

Alternatively, you can import the repository directly into Vercel via the dashboard. Make sure to set the Root Directory to static-system/my-connector-fastapi.
