Phase 17 Plan 02: Docker Deployment Files Summary

Three-stage node:20-slim Dockerfile with linux/amd64, env_file secrets injection, SMTP DNS fix, named uploads volume, and DEPLOYMENT.md documenting host-side migration workflow

Performance

• Duration: 3 min
• Started: 2026-04-03T22:55:35Z
• Completed: 2026-04-03T22:58:30Z
• Tasks: 3
• Files modified: 6

Accomplishments

• Created three-stage Dockerfile using node:20-slim with --platform=linux/amd64 on all 3 FROM lines; seeds/ copied for form library; HEALTHCHECK via wget on /api/health
• Created docker-compose.yml with runtime env_file secrets injection, SMTP DNS fix (dns array + NODE_OPTIONS), named volume uploads:/app/uploads, and restart: unless-stopped
• Created .dockerignore (excludes node_modules, .next, .git, .env*, uploads/, *.md), .env.production.example with exactly 11 required vars (no BLOB token, no dev scraping creds), and DEPLOYMENT.md documenting the full workflow

Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. Task 1: Dockerfile, .dockerignore, .env.production.example - e83ced5 (feat)
2. Task 2: docker-compose.yml and .gitignore update - a107970 (feat)
3. Task 3: DEPLOYMENT.md - 72c23f8 (feat)

Files Created/Modified

• teressa-copeland-homes/Dockerfile - Three-stage linux/amd64 build; seeds/ for form library; HEALTHCHECK
• teressa-copeland-homes/docker-compose.yml - env_file secrets, DNS fix, named uploads volume
• teressa-copeland-homes/.dockerignore - Excludes dev artifacts from Docker build context
• teressa-copeland-homes/.env.production.example - Template with 11 required runtime vars
• teressa-copeland-homes/DEPLOYMENT.md - Step-by-step deploy guide with migration and health check steps
• teressa-copeland-homes/.gitignore - Added /uploads/ entry for Docker volume path

Decisions Made

• .env.production.example force-added past .env* gitignore glob — it's a template with no real secrets and should be committed for operator reference
• wget used in HEALTHCHECK (not curl) because Debian slim includes wget by default; curl is not pre-installed in node:20-slim
• seeds/ directory is explicitly copied into the runner stage at /app/seeds — src/app/api/documents/route.ts reads from path.join(process.cwd(), 'seeds', 'forms') at runtime for the form library import feature; without it, importing forms returns 404

Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

Issues Encountered

• docker compose config --quiet fails locally because .env.production does not exist on dev machine (expected — it's server-only). Verified with a temporary empty stub file; compose syntax parsed cleanly.

User Setup Required

The operator (Teressa) must perform these steps on the server before first deploy:

1. Copy .env.production.example to .env.production and fill in all 11 values
2. Run DATABASE_URL=<neon-url> npx drizzle-kit migrate from the project directory
3. Run docker compose up -d --build
4. Verify with curl http://localhost:3000/api/health

See teressa-copeland-homes/DEPLOYMENT.md for full instructions.

Next Phase Readiness

Phase 17 is complete. All Docker deployment infrastructure is in place:

• Plan 01: standalone output, health endpoint, pool limit, @vercel/blob removal
• Plan 02: Dockerfile, compose, ignore files, env template, deployment docs

The app is ready to be deployed to Teressa's home server via docker compose up -d --build.
