Required Software

Docker & Docker Compose

Breeze runs entirely in Docker containers. Install Docker Engine with the Compose plugin:

Ubuntu/Debian

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
# Log out and back in, then verify:
docker compose version

macOS

# Install Docker Desktop from https://docker.com/products/docker-desktop
# Or via Homebrew:
brew install --cask docker

Node.js & pnpm

Required for running database migrations during deployment:

# Install Node 20+
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_20.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

# Install pnpm
npm install -g pnpm@9

Git

sudo apt-get install -y git

DNS Configuration

Point your domain to your server’s public IP:

A   breeze.yourdomain.com    → 203.0.113.10

Caddy will automatically provision a TLS certificate from Let’s Encrypt once DNS resolves.

Optional: Go Toolchain

Only needed if building the agent from source (pre-built binaries are available):

# Go 1.22+
wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.22.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.22.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin

Firewall Rules

Ensure these ports are accessible:

Port	Protocol	Purpose
80	TCP	HTTP → HTTPS redirect (Caddy)
443	TCP	HTTPS (web UI, API, agent WebSocket)
3478	TCP/UDP	TURN relay (optional, for WebRTC NAT traversal)

All other services (PostgreSQL, Redis, Prometheus, Grafana) bind to 127.0.0.1 and are not exposed publicly.
