Offline Deployment

Deploy Next AI Draw.io offline by self-hosting draw.io to replace embed.diagrams.net.

Note: NEXT_PUBLIC_DRAWIO_BASE_URL is a build-time variable. Changing it requires rebuilding the Docker image.

Docker Compose Setup

1. Clone the repository and define API keys in .env.
2. Create docker-compose.yml:

services:
  drawio:
    image: jgraph/drawio:latest
    ports: ["8080:8080"]
  next-ai-draw-io:
    build:
      context: .
      args:
        - NEXT_PUBLIC_DRAWIO_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8080
    ports: ["3000:3000"]
    env_file: .env
    depends_on: [drawio]

3. Run docker compose up -d and open http://localhost:3000.

Configuration & Critical Warning

The NEXT_PUBLIC_DRAWIO_BASE_URL must be accessible from the user's browser.

Do NOT use internal Docker aliases like http://drawio:8080; the browser cannot resolve them.
