# Deployment

Guide for running `buildfor_life_ops` on a Linux server behind a reverse proxy. The build output of `@sveltejs/adapter-node` is a plain Node HTTP server — nothing exotic.

Stack assumptions:

- Linux host (Debian/Ubuntu preferred; works on anything with glibc ≥ 2.31)
- **fnm** for Node version management — pinned to `24` via `.node-version`
- **pnpm** `9.15.0` via Corepack — pinned in `package.json#packageManager`
- PostgreSQL 16+ reachable from the app host (local socket or remote)
- A reverse proxy terminating TLS (nginx / Caddy / Traefik — examples below use nginx)
- systemd to supervise the Node process

## 1. Prepare the host

```bash
# As root, one-time
apt update
apt install -y build-essential curl git postgresql-client

# Dedicated service user
adduser --system --group --home /opt/buildfor_life_ops --shell /bin/bash buildfor_life_ops
```

## 2. Install fnm and pin Node

```bash
# Run as the service user
sudo -iu buildfor_life_ops
curl -fsSL https://fnm.vercel.app/install | bash -s -- --skip-shell

# Activate in current shell and on login
cat >> ~/.bashrc <<'EOF'
export PATH="$HOME/.local/share/fnm:$PATH"
eval "$(fnm env --use-on-cd --shell bash)"
EOF
source ~/.bashrc

# Install the pinned major — fnm resolves .node-version once the repo is cloned
fnm install 24
fnm default 24
```

## 3. Enable pnpm via Corepack

Corepack ships with Node, so nothing extra to install:

```bash
corepack enable
corepack prepare pnpm@9.15.0 --activate
pnpm --version   # → 9.15.0
```

## 4. Clone the repo and install dependencies

```bash
cd /opt/buildfor_life_ops
git clone git@gitssh.b4l.co.th:B4L/buildfor_life_ops.git app
cd app

# fnm picks up .node-version automatically on cd; verify:
node --version   # → v24.x.x

# Reproducible install — fails if lockfile drifts
pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
```

## 5. Configure `.env`

```bash
cp .env.example .env      # if present — otherwise copy from a trusted source
$EDITOR .env
```

Required keys (the app refuses to boot without them — see `src/lib/server/env.ts`):

| Key | Notes |
| --- | --- |
| `DATABASE_URL` | `postgres://user:pass@host:5432/buildfor_life_ops` |
| `SESSION_SECRET` | ≥ 32 hex chars — `openssl rand -hex 32` |
| `STORAGE_SIGNING_SECRET` | ≥ 32 hex chars, independent of `SESSION_SECRET` |
| `PUBLIC_BASE_URL` | External URL, e.g. `https://ops.b4l.co.th` |
| `STORAGE_BACKEND` | `local` or `s3` |
| `STORAGE_LOCAL_ROOT` | Absolute path to blob root, e.g. `/var/lib/buildfor_life_ops/storage` |

Optional keys:

- **SMTP**: `SMTP_HOST`, `SMTP_PORT`, `SMTP_USER`, `SMTP_PASS`, `SMTP_FROM`, `SMTP_SECURE`. Email is silently disabled when any of HOST/PORT/FROM is unset.
- **Matrix**: `MATRIX_HOMESERVER`, `MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN`. Matrix delivery is disabled when either is unset. The per-company room comes from `companies.settings.matrix_room_id`.
- **OIDC**: `OIDC_ENABLED=true` + the four `OIDC_*` values when wiring SSO.
- **S3**: `S3_BUCKET`, `S3_REGION`, optional `S3_ENDPOINT` for MinIO/compatibles, plus credentials.

Lock it down:

```bash
chmod 600 .env
chown buildfor_life_ops:buildfor_life_ops .env
```

## 6. Create the database

```bash
sudo -iu postgres psql <<'SQL'
CREATE USER buildfor_life_ops WITH PASSWORD '<strong-password>';
CREATE DATABASE buildfor_life_ops OWNER buildfor_life_ops;
SQL
```

## 7. Run migrations

```bash
pnpm run db:migrate
```

Re-run after every deploy — the migrator is idempotent and skips applied migrations.

## 8. Bootstrap the first admin

```bash
pnpm run create-user -- \
  --email admin@b4l.co.th \
  --password '<strong-password>' \
  --name 'Admin' \
  --company 'B4L' \
  --role admin
```

## 9. Build for production

```bash
pnpm run build
```

Output: `build/` — a standalone Node server bundle. The `node_modules` it needs at runtime are the production deps:

```bash
pnpm install --prod --frozen-lockfile
```

(Do this on the deploy host, not a cross-compiled one, so native modules like `@node-rs/argon2` and `sharp` pick the right binaries.)

## 10. systemd unit

`/etc/systemd/system/buildfor_life_ops.service`:

```ini
[Unit]
Description=buildfor_life_ops (SvelteKit node adapter)
After=network.target postgresql.service
Wants=postgresql.service

[Service]
Type=simple
User=buildfor_life_ops
Group=buildfor_life_ops
WorkingDirectory=/opt/buildfor_life_ops/app
EnvironmentFile=/opt/buildfor_life_ops/app/.env
Environment=NODE_ENV=production
Environment=HOST=127.0.0.1
Environment=PORT=3000
Environment=BODY_SIZE_LIMIT=10M
# fnm-installed Node — path resolved via the service user's shim dir.
# Pin the exact version here so a stray `fnm default` does not change the runtime.
ExecStart=/opt/buildfor_life_ops/.local/state/fnm_multishells/current/bin/node build/index.js
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5
# Hardening
NoNewPrivileges=true
ProtectSystem=strict
ReadWritePaths=/opt/buildfor_life_ops/app/storage /var/lib/buildfor_life_ops
ProtectHome=true
PrivateTmp=true

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```

If `fnm` multishell paths are awkward (they rotate per shell), use the canonical alias path instead:

```ini
ExecStart=/opt/buildfor_life_ops/.local/share/fnm/aliases/default/bin/node build/index.js
```

Enable and start:

```bash
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable --now buildfor_life_ops
systemctl status buildfor_life_ops
journalctl -u buildfor_life_ops -f
```

## 11. Reverse proxy (nginx)

`/etc/nginx/sites-available/buildfor_life_ops`:

```nginx
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name ops.b4l.co.th;
    return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}

server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name ops.b4l.co.th;

    ssl_certificate     /etc/letsencrypt/live/ops.b4l.co.th/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/ops.b4l.co.th/privkey.pem;

    # Uploads: documents + CSV import. Keep in sync with BODY_SIZE_LIMIT in systemd unit.
    client_max_body_size 10m;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3000;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Host              $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For   $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host  $host;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade           $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection        "upgrade";
        proxy_read_timeout 60s;
    }
}
```

SvelteKit trusts `X-Forwarded-*` when `ORIGIN` or `PROTOCOL_HEADER`/`HOST_HEADER` env vars are set. Recommended:

```ini
# Add to the systemd unit [Service] block
Environment=ORIGIN=https://ops.b4l.co.th
Environment=PROTOCOL_HEADER=x-forwarded-proto
Environment=HOST_HEADER=x-forwarded-host
```

## 12. Upgrades

```bash
cd /opt/buildfor_life_ops/app
git fetch --tags
git checkout <tag-or-sha>

# Node version may have changed — fnm re-reads .node-version on cd, but force it:
fnm use --install-if-missing

pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
pnpm run db:migrate
pnpm run build
pnpm install --prod --frozen-lockfile

systemctl restart buildfor_life_ops
journalctl -u buildfor_life_ops -n 100 --no-pager
```

A migration that cannot be rolled back forward-only (rare — see `drizzle/README.md`) needs a maintenance window and a DB snapshot first.

## 13. Rollback

```bash
cd /opt/buildfor_life_ops/app
git checkout <previous-tag>
pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
pnpm run build
pnpm install --prod --frozen-lockfile
systemctl restart buildfor_life_ops
```

**Schema rollback is manual.** Drizzle does not ship down-migrations. If the previous code cannot read the current schema, restore the DB from the pre-upgrade snapshot before checking out the old tag.

## 14. Backups

Two things matter:

- **Postgres** — `pg_dump -Fc buildfor_life_ops > ops-$(date +%F).dump`, daily, offsite. Retain ≥ 14 days.
- **Blob storage** — when `STORAGE_BACKEND=local`, `STORAGE_LOCAL_ROOT` holds all uploaded documents. Snapshot it with the filesystem (ZFS/btrfs) or rsync it alongside the DB dump. When `STORAGE_BACKEND=s3`, rely on bucket versioning + cross-region replication.

The DB is the source of truth for `documents.storage_key` → blob mapping. A blob directory without its matching DB rows is unusable.

## 15. Health check

There is no dedicated `/healthz` endpoint yet. For now, probe `GET /login` — it returns 200 without a session:

```bash
curl -fsS -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' https://ops.b4l.co.th/login
```

## 16. Observability

- **Logs**: `journalctl -u buildfor_life_ops`. All app logs go to stdout/stderr.
- **Metrics**: not wired yet. If/when added, expose on a separate localhost port so nginx does not proxy them publicly.

## 17. Common pitfalls

- **`Environment validation failed`** on boot — `.env` is missing, the `EnvironmentFile=` path is wrong, or one of the `min(32)` secrets is too short.
- **`sharp` fails with `could not load the "sharp" module`** — cross-compiled install. Re-run `pnpm install --prod --frozen-lockfile` on the deploy host.
- **`@node-rs/argon2` prebuilt binary missing** — same cause, same fix. If the host is exotic (musl, ARM), set `npm_config_build_from_source=true` before install.
- **Cookies not setting** — `PUBLIC_BASE_URL` must match the user-facing URL exactly (scheme + host). In production this means HTTPS; the session cookie is `Secure`.
- **413 on document upload** — bump both `client_max_body_size` in nginx and `BODY_SIZE_LIMIT` in the systemd unit; they must agree.
- **fnm picks the wrong Node after a server reboot** — ensure `fnm default 24` was run for the service user, and the systemd `ExecStart=` points at the aliases path, not a multishell path.
