Phase 17: Docker Deployment Verification Report
Phase Goal: The application runs reliably in a Docker container on the production server — secrets are injected at runtime, email delivers correctly, uploaded files survive container restarts, and a health check confirms database connectivity Verified: 2026-04-03T23:15:00Z Status: PASSED Re-verification: No — initial verification

Data-Flow Trace (Level 4)
Not applicable — this phase produces infrastructure files (Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, config), not components that render dynamic data. The health endpoint is a simple passthrough probe, not a data-rendering artifact.
Behavioral Spot-Checks
Step 7b: SKIPPED — no running server available. The health endpoint requires DATABASE_URL to be set. Static code verification is sufficient for infrastructure artifacts (Dockerfile, compose, config files).
| Behavior | Command | Result | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| health route exports GET | file read + grep | confirmed | PASS |
| health route calls SELECT 1 | grep "SELECT 1" route.ts |
confirmed | PASS |
| health route returns 503 on failure | grep "503" route.ts |
confirmed | PASS |
| Dockerfile has 3 platform-targeted FROM lines | grep -c "platform=linux/amd64" Dockerfile |
3 | PASS |
| No secrets baked into Dockerfile | grep for PASSWORD/SECRET/KEY= in Dockerfile | nothing found | PASS |
Requirements Coverage
| Requirement | Source Plan | Description | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DEPLOY-01 | 17-01, 17-02 | App runs in Docker with production docker-compose.yml (node:20-slim, three-stage, not Alpine) | SATISFIED | Dockerfile confirmed 3x node:20-slim + --platform=linux/amd64 |
| DEPLOY-02 | 17-01, 17-02 | All secrets injected at runtime via env_file — not baked into image | SATISFIED | env_file directive in compose; no secrets in Dockerfile |
| DEPLOY-03 | 17-02 | Email delivery works from container (SMTP connects to external SMTP server) | SATISFIED | DNS fix (dns array + NODE_OPTIONS) in compose; SMTP vars in .env.production.example wired to signing-mailer.tsx and contact-mailer.ts |
| DEPLOY-04 | 17-01 | GET /api/health returns 200 OK when database is reachable | SATISFIED | Route exists, SELECT 1 via Drizzle, returns {ok:true} or 503 |
| DEPLOY-05 | 17-02 | Uploaded PDFs persist across container restarts (named Docker volume for uploads dir) | SATISFIED | Named volume uploads:/app/uploads in compose |
Anti-Patterns Found
| File | Line | Pattern | Severity | Impact |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| None | — | — | — | — |
No TODO/FIXME/placeholder patterns found in phase-17 artifacts. No hardcoded secrets found in Dockerfile or compose files.
One notable observation: the .dockerignore contains .env* which would exclude .env.production.example from the Docker build context. This is correct — the example file is not needed inside the container image. It is committed to git for operator reference (confirmed: git ls-files .env.production.example returns the file). Similarly *.md excludes DEPLOYMENT.md from the build context, which is intentional.
Human Verification Required
1. SMTP Delivery from Container
Test: On the production server, after deploying with real SMTP credentials, submit the contact form or trigger a document signing. Confirm the email arrives in the recipient's inbox. Expected: Email delivered successfully; no EAI_AGAIN DNS errors in container logs. Why human: Cannot test SMTP connectivity without a live container connected to a real SMTP server. The DNS fix (dns array + NODE_OPTIONS) addresses the known Docker SMTP DNS issue, but confirmation requires an actual send from the deployed container.
2. Upload Persistence Across Container Restart
Test: Upload a PDF document via the portal, then run docker compose restart. Confirm the uploaded file is still accessible after restart.
Expected: File still present and downloadable after restart.
Why human: Named volume wiring is verified statically. Actual persistence requires running the container and restarting it.
3. Health Check Endpoint Live Response
Test: After docker compose up -d --build on the server, run curl http://localhost:3000/api/health.
Expected: {"ok":true,"db":"connected"} with HTTP 200.
Why human: Requires live DATABASE_URL pointed at Neon; cannot test without the running container connected to the database.
Gaps Summary
No gaps found. All 9 observable truths verified. All 5 requirements (DEPLOY-01 through DEPLOY-05) are satisfied by concrete code artifacts. All key links are wired. All commits (fa7d6a9, 57326d7, e83ced5, a107970, 72c23f8) exist in git log.
The three human verification items above are runtime behaviors that require a live container on the production server — they cannot be confirmed statically but there are no code-level blockers preventing them from succeeding.
