About this template

Overview

Open source backend consisting of embedded database (SQLite) with realtime subscriptions, built-in auth management, convenient dashboard UI and simple REST-ish API

How to deploy PocketBase

  1. Choose Deploy now to start PocketBase in your Sealos workspace.
  2. Review admin_email, admin_password, encryption_key and the remaining settings in the deployment form.
  3. Launch the template, then inspect the application status and resource cards in Canvas.

Resources to plan for

Start with the resources defined by the PocketBase template. Review CPU, memory, persistent storage, and network allocations for every service in Canvas. Capacity needs depend on your data and workload; monitor usage as they grow.

Template configuration and setup

Access after deployment

Use the application URL or connection details shown in Canvas. Follow the deployment guide for first-time account setup or client configuration, and keep generated credentials available for that step.

Hosting and billing

Sealos monthly plans include compute, memory, storage, and traffic. Size your plan for all deployed services. Software licenses and external AI or API services may have separate terms and charges. Confirm the applicable plan and optional charges in Cost Center.

This Sealos template deploys PocketBase as the pocketbase application. It uses the repository-maintained Sealos manifest and keeps deployment, networking, and storage configuration inside the template.

Deploy on Sealos

Open this template in the Sealos App Store, review the configuration values, and click Deploy. Sealos renders the template variables, creates the required Kubernetes resources, and manages the public endpoint for the application.

Access

After deployment, open https://${{ defaults.app_host }}.${{ SEALOS_CLOUD_DOMAIN }}. The concrete hostname is generated from defaults.app_host and your Sealos Cloud domain.

Configuration

The following user-facing inputs are available during deployment:

NameDescriptionRequiredDefault
admin_emailAdmin user email for logintrue``
admin_passwordAdmin user password (minimum 8 characters)true<redacted>
debug_modeEnable debug modefalsefalse
encryption_keyEncryption key for settings (recommended for production, 32 characters)false${{ random(32) }}

Keep sensitive values in Sealos-managed inputs or generated defaults. Do not commit private credentials to the template repository.

From launch to everyday operations

Why deploy
on Sealos

A shorter path from an app you want to an app you can run. Sealos brings deployment and ongoing operations into one place.

  1. One-click deployment

    Start with a ready-made template. Review its configuration and launch from the Sealos console.

  2. Managed Kubernetes

    Run on managed infrastructure with built-in workload scheduling and recovery.

  3. Automatic HTTPS

    Give your application a public HTTPS endpoint with certificates managed for you.

  4. Persistent storage

    Keep application data on persistent volumes across container restarts.

  5. Room to grow

    Adjust CPU, memory, and replicas from the console as your workload changes.

One template. Connected resources.

You Get the Whole Stack

Sealos provisions the resources defined by your template and brings them together in your workspace.

  • App Service

    Container workloads with configurable CPU, memory, and replicas.

  • Public HTTPS URL

    An address for your app, with managed TLS certificates.

  • Database

    A database provisioned alongside your app when the template calls for one.

  • Persistent Volume

    Storage for the files and data your application needs to keep.

  • Environment Variables

    Application settings and secrets configured in one place.

  • Logs & Metrics

    Inspect container logs and resource usage from the console.

Resources and their configuration vary by template. Review the deployment form for this app’s exact setup.
