πŸ”‘ Your Hugging Face Token

Token: YOUR_HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN_HERE
Status: βœ… Configured in .env file


πŸš€ Quick Start (3 Commands)

# 1. Create .env file with your token
python scripts/create_env_with_token.py

# 2. Start services with Docker
docker-compose up -d

# 3. Open in browser
start http://localhost:3000

That's it! πŸŽ‰


πŸ“‹ Detailed Setup Steps

Step 1: Create .env File

Windows:

scripts\create_env_with_token.bat

Linux/Mac:

python scripts/create_env_with_token.py

What this does:

  • βœ… Creates backend/.env with your HF token
  • βœ… Generates secure secret key
  • βœ… Configures all environment variables
  • βœ… Sets up development defaults

Step 2: Install Dependencies

# Backend
cd backend
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Frontend
cd frontend
pnpm install

Step 3: Initialize Database

cd backend
python scripts/init_db.py

Step 4: Start Services

Option A: Docker (Recommended)

docker-compose up -d

Option B: Manual

# Terminal 1: Backend
cd backend
uvicorn app.main:app --reload

# Terminal 2: Frontend
cd frontend
pnpm dev

βœ… Verify Setup

# Check backend health
curl http://localhost:8000/health

# Check frontend
curl http://localhost:3000

# Verify HF token is loaded
cd backend
python -c "from app.core.config import settings; print('βœ… Token loaded!' if settings.HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN else '❌ Token missing')"

🎡 Test Music Generation

# Create a test generation
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/generations \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A calm acoustic guitar melody",
    "duration": 10
  }'

Or visit http://localhost:3000 and use the UI!

βœ… DATABASE_URL=postgresql+asyncpg://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/audioforge
βœ… REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379/0
βœ… MUSICGEN_DEVICE=cpu
βœ… BARK_DEVICE=cpu

πŸ’‘ Pro Tips

πŸš€ GPU Acceleration

If you have NVIDIA GPU with CUDA:

# Check CUDA availability
python -c "import torch; print('βœ… CUDA!' if torch.cuda.is_available() else '❌ No CUDA')"

# If available, edit backend/.env:
MUSICGEN_DEVICE=cuda
BARK_DEVICE=cuda
DEMUCS_DEVICE=cuda

Benefit: 10-50x faster generation! ⚑


πŸ“¦ Model Downloads

Models download automatically on first use:

Model Size Download Time
MusicGen Small ~1.5GB 2-5 minutes
Bark Small ~2GB 3-7 minutes
Demucs ~300MB 1-2 minutes

Total: ~4GB (one-time download)

Location: ~/.cache/huggingface/hub/


πŸ”’ Security Notes

  • βœ… .env is in .gitignore (won't be committed)
  • βœ… Token is only in your local .env file
  • βœ… Never share your .env file
  • βœ… Keep your HF token private

πŸ› Troubleshooting

Backend won't start?

cd backend
python scripts/verify_setup.py

Token not working?

# Verify token in .env
cat backend/.env | grep HF_TOKEN

# Test token validity
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN_HERE" \
  https://huggingface.co/api/whoami

Models won't download?

# Test manual download
cd backend
python -c "
from transformers import AutoProcessor
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained('facebook/musicgen-small')
print('βœ… Models can download!')
"

Database connection error?

# Start PostgreSQL with Docker
docker-compose up -d postgres

# Initialize database
cd backend && python scripts/init_db.py
