You need SSL certificate for your website. With Dokku you can add it in several ways, using official Let's Encypt plugin, or using your own certificate, or using a Cloudflare SSL. Any of these do, but don't neglect this step.

# on Dokku host sudo dokku plugin:install https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt.git

Right now (when I wrote this post), there is no wildcard support from dokku-letsencrypt plugin. Luckily, Dokku itself can use certificates from other sources.

As you may have noticed, our application is available on our Dokku host now – but only in an unencrypted fashion (note the lack of https in the address bar). Thankfully, we live in the age of LetsEncrypt offering free TLS certificates, and Dokku makes it easy to enable automatic certificate retrieval and setup for our application via the dokku-letsencrypt plugin. I strongly recommend setting up this plugin so that people using our application can enjoy securely encrypted web-traffic. Once installed (see installation and initial setup instructions), we can enable the LetsEncrypt integration for our application with a single command:

When I started this project I was inspired by Lucid which is the ORM of the Adonis.js framework.

Sure, it's one of the best looking for that case, but still everything from the view templating system[1] to the database[2] it uses "by default" needs to be manually installed, which makes it def not like Django/RoR IMHO. Heck, even the simple session management needs to be installed separately[3].

The config/database.ts file holds all the configuration related to the database. For more details on this, check out the documentation.

For Adonis.js to work with database we should install Lucid ORM and configure it properly.

Adonisjs Lucid is pretty solid in all regards. https://docs.adonisjs.com/guides/database/introduction
