tajniak81andClaude Opus 5.5 a47e15cc1c PocketBase as a standalone database server ...

The pocketbase driver no longer embeds PocketBase: Warp keeps its data as
PocketBase collections on a server of its own and reaches it only through
the REST API, the way the postgres driver reaches PostgreSQL.
database.connection_string is the server's URL, and Warp signs in as the
superuser in WARP_PB_SUPERUSER_EMAIL / WARP_PB_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD (or a
WARP_PB_SUPERUSER_FILE of the two).

Every SQL table is a superuser-only collection of the same name and
columns, created by warp migrate. Reads go through PocketBase's SQL
endpoint with the SQL drivers' queries, via a read-only database/sql
driver that inlines arguments, moves long ones into warp_params and pages
past 1000 rows. Writes are record operations in batch requests under one
write lock in the Warp process. Media is a protected file field in
warp_media, local or in the S3 bucket Warp writes into PocketBase's
settings. Search matches word prefixes with LIKE. The storage tests run
against an in-process PocketBase and pass as on SQLite.

Docker: the PocketBase stacks get a pocketbase service running
tajniak81/pocketbase-docker-root (WARP_PB_IMAGE), with a pb-data volume
and its admin UI on loopback; the AIO images run that PocketBase binary
as a process beside the homeserver, making up a superuser when none is
set. The .env examples, READMEs, docs and warp.yaml.example follow.
