Related reading: Umami upstream. These are separate files in one repository. A shared Docker network works only when the workloads run on the same server; Towbar does not automatically order their deployments or copy secret values between them.

Towbar manifests

Configure

  1. Register and prepare the example server or servers, connect the repository, and map production to the branch containing these files.
  2. Save each Datastore credential value under Datastore → Settings → Secrets, deploy it first, and verify engine readiness before starting a dependent Service.
  3. Save the Service’s declared keys in its selected environment, or enable and authorize the selected external-secret provider. Do not commit the values.
  4. Set the Service’s DATABASE_URL to postgresql://<user>:<password>@umami-postgres:5432/<database>, using the user, name, and password you configured on the Datastore. A Docker network does not copy those values. Change Umami’s default administrator password after first login.
  5. Sync the repository, inspect the resolved configuration, deploy manually, and perform the verification below before enabling automation.

Verify

Use current PostgreSQL guidance and verify the site after first login. For field constraints, see Service manifest and Datastore manifest.
