ginnoir 13d94b3751 chore(deploy): separate maintainer config from public deployment templates
- rename Caddyfile.snippet → Caddyfile (maintainer's full production file)
- restore Caddyfile.snippet as a minimal public reference (famapp blocks only)
- add compose.example.yaml: standalone famapp + authentik template for new
  deployers; compose.yaml remains the maintainer's homelab monolith
- update deploy/README.md: file table, setup steps referencing example files
- apply-compose.ps1: point Caddy push at deploy/Caddyfile (not snippet)

Deploying famapp

Trunk-based: main is always green. Production deploys only from version tags (vX.Y.Z). The dev-login flow is retained for local development behind a double gate (NODE_ENV !== "production" and ENABLE_DEV_LOGIN=true); a startup assertion in src/lib/dev-login-config.ts makes a misconfigured prod fail loud instead of silently exposing it.

Files in this directory

File Purpose
compose.example.yaml Start here. Standalone famapp + Authentik stack for new deployments.
compose.yaml Maintainer's production compose (full homelab monolith — not a template).
Caddyfile.snippet Reverse proxy blocks to add to your Caddyfile.
Caddyfile.dev.snippet Dev machine proxy block (maintainer-specific).
Caddyfile Maintainer's full production Caddyfile (not a template).
authentik/README.md Authentik bootstrap guide.
backups/ Backup container scripts (used by famapp-backup in the example compose).

One-time host setup

  1. Install Docker + Compose plugin on the host.
  2. git clone this repo to e.g. /srv/famapp.
  3. Copy deploy/compose.example.yaml/srv/famapp/deploy/compose.yaml.
  4. Copy .env.production.example/srv/famapp/deploy/.env and fill in real values.
    • openssl rand -base64 32 for AUTH_SECRET.
    • openssl rand -base64 60 for AUTHENTIK_SECRET_KEY.
    • openssl rand -hex 64 for the MinIO passwords.
    • pnpm vapid:generate (locally, from the repo) for the three VAPID lines.
  5. Bootstrap Authentik per deploy/authentik/README.md. Save the OIDC client id/secret into .env.
  6. Wire Caddy (or any reverse proxy) using deploy/Caddyfile.snippet.

Cutting a release

# from your dev machine, on main, with a clean working tree
git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0

.github/workflows/release.yml builds + pushes ghcr.io/ginnoir/famapp:v0.1.0, :0.1, and :latest to GHCR.

Deploying a release on the host

cd /srv/famapp/deploy
# pin to the tag you just cut
sed -i 's|FAMAPP_IMAGE=.*|FAMAPP_IMAGE=ghcr.io/ginnoir/famapp:v0.1.0|' .env
docker compose pull famapp
docker compose up -d famapp
docker compose logs -f famapp   # watch migrations + boot

The container's entrypoint runs node scripts/migrate.mjs before starting the server. To skip migrations on a given start (rare — e.g. emergency rollback to an older schema-compatible image), set RUN_MIGRATIONS=false.

Rollback

Edit .env to point FAMAPP_IMAGE at the previous tag, then docker compose up -d famapp. If the rollback target predates a migration that's already applied, restore from backup (deploy/backups/README.md) before bringing the older image up.
