redefined-designs/docker-compose.prod.yml

# Production stack — the live storefront. See issue #118 for why this file is
# in the repository at all.
#
# It used to live only in Portainer's web editor, which meant no test could read
# it. `backend/tests/unit/composeEnvironment.test.ts` asserts that the deploying
# environment sets every name in ALWAYS_REQUIRED, and it could only ever check
# QA. Production was unguarded, and on 2026-08-23 it refused to boot because
# UPLOADS_DIR had no line here — while being set in Portainer's stack variables,
# where it does nothing. Committing the file is what lets the guard cover it.
#
# Name the Portainer stack `redefined-designs`, NOT `redefined-designs-qa`.
# The stack name becomes the compose project name, and reusing QA's would make
# compose reconcile the two against each other.
#
# DEPLOY THIS AS A GIT REPOSITORY STACK, not from the web editor — otherwise the
# file here and the file that actually runs drift apart again, which is the
# whole problem this is solving.
#
#   Repository:   https://gitea.bermudalamb.synology.me/bermudalamb/redefined-designs
#   Reference:    refs/heads/main
#   Compose path: docker-compose.prod.yml
#
# THIS STACK DOES NOT BUILD. It runs the image tagged redefined-designs:latest,
# which has to already exist on the NAS before the stack starts. A first deploy,
# or a NAS that has pruned images, fails with "image not found" rather than
# quietly building one — see #146.
#
# That is deliberate. QA builds from this repository and is reviewed; production
# then runs the image that was reviewed, promoted by hand:
#
#   docker tag redefined-designs:qa redefined-designs:latest
#
# Building here instead would look simpler and would ship something else. The
# Dockerfile copies package.json without package-lock.json and installs with
# `npm install`, so two builds of the same commit can resolve different
# transitive dependencies. "Same git ref" is therefore not "same image", and the
# reviewed bytes are the only thing that is.
#
# The promotion is load-bearing, not a convenience. Forgetting it means a
# redeploy that reuses the previous redefined-designs:latest and appears to
# succeed while running old code — the same failure `pull_policy: build` guards
# against in QA, arriving by a different route. State which image is being
# promoted as part of the deploy.
#
# Leave any Portainer option that re-pulls images turned OFF — there is no
# registry to pull this image from.
#
# WHY MOST VALUES ARE HARDCODED HERE RATHER THAN INTERPOLATED
#
# Portainer's stack variables are substituted into this file; they are not
# handed to the container. A variable set in Portainer with no line here never
# reaches the app, and the failure reads as "I set it and it says it is not
# set". Only secrets are interpolated below, because only secrets have a reason
# not to be in the repository. Everything else is written out, so there is one
# place to look and one thing that can be wrong.
#
# Required stack environment variables — all secrets, all must be set in
# Portainer for this stack:
#
#   DB_PASSWORD           Postgres password for the `redefined` database.
#   SMTP_USER             Brevo SMTP login.
#   SMTP_PASSWORD
#   SMTP_FROM             The From address customers see.
#   ADMIN_GATE_SECRET     The shared secret Nginx Proxy Manager injects as the
#                         X-Admin-Gate header on the gated location. Both sides
#                         must hold the same value or the admin API returns 403.
#                         See #63. Without it, /api/admin is protected only by
#                         the proxy — anything reaching the container directly
#                         can administer the store.
#   PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID      Live PayPal credentials. Required because DEMO_MODE is
#   PAYPAL_CLIENT_SECRET  false below; the app refuses to start without them.
#   PAYPAL_WEBHOOK_ID
#   BACKUP_PASSPHRASE     Optional. Set it and the uploads archives are
#                         encrypted at rest; leave it empty and they are not.
#                         See docs/ops/backup-and-restore.md before setting it —
#                         an archive nobody can decrypt is not a backup.
#   USPS_CLIENT_ID        Optional. Leave unset to run without address
#   USPS_CLIENT_SECRET    validation; the app degrades gracefully rather than
#                         failing, so an empty value is a working configuration.
#
# If the existing stack in Portainer uses different names for any of these,
# rename them there to match — the names above are what this file reads.

  # Backups (#147)
  #
  # Two services rather than one, because they are different jobs on different
  # cadences. The database is small, changes constantly, and wants a logical
  # dump. Uploads are large, append-mostly, and want an archive. Forcing both
  # through one tool serves one of them badly.
  #
  # WHAT THESE DO NOT COVER, and it matters:
  #
  # They run while the stack runs, so they cannot protect the stack's own
  # teardown. Deleting the Portainer stack deletes these containers along with
  # everything else. The manual pg_dump in README's deploy steps therefore
  # stays exactly where it is — a routine regime and a snapshot taken before a
  # risky operation are different jobs, and neither replaces the other.
  #
  # And they write to the same volume as the data they protect. That survives a
  # bad migration, a dropped table, a bad deploy and a stack deletion. It does
  # not survive the disk. Getting a copy off /volume1 is a Synology-side job —
  # Hyper Backup to another volume, an external disk, or offsite — and it is
  # what turns this from a convenience into a guarantee. See
  # docs/ops/backup-and-restore.md.
