+# hello-svc
+
+Express 5 + TypeScript backend generated from `nholtware/service-template-express`.
+
+## Endpoints
+
+- `GET /healthz` liveness, always 200 once listening
+- `GET /readyz` readiness: Postgres `SELECT 1` and Redis `PING` for whichever of `DATABASE_URL` / `REDIS_URL` are set; 503 + JSON reason otherwise
+- `GET /` service name, version (git sha), pod, a `service_info` row, Redis hit counter
+
+## Local dev
+
+```sh
+cp .env.example .env   # then export the vars, or use your shell's env loader
+npm ci && npm run dev
+npm run lint && npm test
+```
+
+Env is validated at boot (`src/lib/config.ts`): `PORT`, `SERVICE_NAME` (required), `LOG_LEVEL`, `DATABASE_URL?`, `REDIS_URL?`.
+Migrations: SQL files in `migrations/`, applied with `npm run migrate`.
+Logs: one JSON object per line on stdout (`level,time,msg,service,version`, plus `req.*`/`res.statusCode`/`responseTime` per request).
+
+## Using this template
+
+1. **Generate** a repo from this template in Forgejo (public). `hello-svc` is substituted into `package.json`, this README, `.env.example`, the CI workflow, and the first migration.
+2. **Set 3 Actions secrets** on the new repo: `REGISTRY_USER` (`nholtware`), `REGISTRY_TOKEN` (registry push token), `GITOPS_TOKEN` (ci-bot gitops token).
+3. **Add gitops entries**: render `templates/backend/` (see its README) into `manifests/<app>/` and add `apps/<app>.yaml` in `nholtware/gitops`.
+4. **Push** to `main`. Generating a repo emits no push event, so CI only starts on your first push.
