Stage provisioning on the dedicated host ONE (one.101010.cloud)

Test and Int run as Compose stacks on the operator's dedicated Hetzner server ONE (one.101010.cloud, 168.119.32.247) — the same host that runs the Gitea instance and the CI runner; DNS for *.dorfteich.cloud already points there (deployment.md §Stages). Steps marked [root] need host root access and are executed by the repo owner; everything else can be done by CI or a deploy user.

Overview

Stage	Directory	Domain	Ports (localhost)
Test	/srv/DOCKER/dorfteich-test/	test.dorfteich.cloud	web 8100, api 8101, collab 8102
Int	/srv/DOCKER/dorfteich-int/	int.dorfteich.cloud	web 8110, api 8111, collab 8112

1. Stage directories [root]

for stage in test int; do
  mkdir -p /srv/DOCKER/dorfteich-$stage
  mkdir -p /home/RAID/DOCKER/dorfteich-$stage   # bulk data, if RAID exists on this host
done

Copy deploy/compose/docker-compose.yml and .env.example → .env into each stage directory. Set per stage in .env (mode 600):

• POSTGRES_PASSWORD: unique random value per stage
• COLLAB_TOKEN_SECRET: long random value per stage (openssl rand -base64 32); signs/verifies the collaboration tokens (issue #34). The api and collab services read the same value from this one variable.
• COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME: dorfteich-test / dorfteich-int
• WEB_PORT/API_PORT/COLLAB_PORT: 8100/8101/8102 (test), 8110/8111/8112 (int). COLLAB_PORT must be set per stage — both stacks share this host, so the compose default (8102) would make the Int collab container collide with Test's; Int needs COLLAB_PORT=8112.
• IMAGE_PREFIX=gitea.101010.cloud/stwaidele/dorfteich
• TAG: managed by the CD pipeline (<git-sha> on test, int on int)
• APP_BASE_URL: https://test.dorfteich.cloud / https://int.dorfteich.cloud — e-mail links and the CSRF origin check depend on it
• SMTP_HOST/SMTP_PORT/SMTP_SECURE/SMTP_USER/SMTP_PASS/SMTP_FROM: real relay credentials (both non-prod stages share one mailbox); without them, signup/reset mails queue up and fail

Fixture accounts on the stages are created with the regular seed, but with stage-specific passwords (never the public dev password). Always pass both override variables when re-seeding a stage — the seed re-hashes credentials on every run, so omitting them silently resets the stage accounts to the public dev password:

FIXTURE_ADMIN_PASSWORD=… FIXTURE_USER_PASSWORD=… \
  DATABASE_URL=postgresql://dorfteich:…@localhost:<tunnel-port>/dorfteich \
  pnpm --filter @dorfteich/api db:seed

(The stage db is not published; tunnel to the db container, e.g. ssh -L 15432:<db-container-ip>:5432 root@one.101010.cloud.)

2. Reverse proxy vhosts [root]

Both vhosts terminate TLS and route by path; WebSocket upgrade on /collab is required from milestone M3 on, configure it now. Caddy example:

test.dorfteich.cloud {
    handle /api/* {
        reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:8101
    }
    handle /collab* {
        reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:8102   # Hocuspocus collab (issue #33); Caddy passes the WebSocket upgrade through automatically
    }
    handle {
        reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:8100
    }
}

(nginx equivalent: proxy_pass per location; for /collab add proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";.)

Int: same block with int.dorfteich.cloud and ports 8110/8111/8112.

3. Gitea act_runner [root]

The CI/CD workflows (.gitea/workflows/) need one act_runner on the host with Docker access and the ubuntu-latest label:

# 1. Download act_runner (https://gitea.com/gitea/act_runner/releases)
# 2. Registration token: Gitea → Site/Repo Settings → Actions → Runners
#    (or: docker exec -u git gitea_app gitea actions generate-runner-token)
act_runner register \
  --instance https://gitea.101010.cloud \
  --token <REGISTRATION_TOKEN> \
  --name one-dorfteich \
  --labels ubuntu-latest:docker://docker.gitea.com/runner-images:ubuntu-latest
# 3. Run as a systemd service (act_runner daemon), user in the docker group.

4. Deploy user and SSH keys

The CD workflow (issue #8) deploys via SSH: ssh deploy@one.101010.cloud 'cd /srv/DOCKER/dorfteich-test && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d'.

• [root] Create a deploy user (or reuse an existing deployment user), member of the docker group, owning the stage directories.
• Generate one ed25519 keypair per stage; public keys into deploy's authorized_keys (optionally with a command= restriction to the compose command), private keys become the repository secrets DEPLOY_SSH_KEY_TEST / DEPLOY_SSH_KEY_INT.

5. Registry access

The pipeline pushes images to the Gitea container registry (gitea.101010.cloud/stwaidele/dorfteich-{web,api,collab}):

• Repository secret REGISTRY_TOKEN: a Gitea access token with write:package scope (owner stwaidele or a CI account).
• On the host, docker login gitea.101010.cloud for the deploy user with a read:package token, so compose pull works.

5a. Third-party image digests (issue #203, ADR 0024)

Every third-party image in deploy/compose/docker-compose.yml is pinned as name:tag@sha256:… — the tag stays for readability, the digest decides what runs, so the deployed artefact is exactly the reviewed one. An early CI step fails on any third-party image: reference without a digest. Our own images are pinned per release by the deploy pipeline (TAG in the stage .env); compose.dev.yml is a local convenience and deliberately not digest-pinned.

Updating a digest (e.g. to take a rebased base image or a new tag):

1. Resolve the new digest — this prints the manifest-list digest every platform pulls:

   docker buildx imagetools inspect <name:tag>   # → Digest: sha256:…
   

2. Update the reference in deploy/compose/docker-compose.yml to <name:tag>@sha256:… and let CI confirm.

3. Roll out by hand: CD does NOT sync stage composes — apply the same change to /srv/DOCKER/dorfteich-{test,int,prod}/docker-compose.yml on ONE. The next compose pull && up -d (any CD run for test/int, the next release deploy for prod) recreates the containers from the pinned digest.

4. Verify after rollout: docker inspect --format '{{.Image}}' <container> must print the pinned digest (or check RepoDigests on the image).

6. Verification checklist

• https://test.dorfteich.cloud/healthz → ok
• https://test.dorfteich.cloud/api/v1/readyz → {"status":"ok",…}
• https://test.dorfteich.cloud/collab/healthz → {"status":"ok","service":"collab",…}
• same for int
• runner shows online under Gitea → Settings → Actions → Runners
• a test workflow run executes on the runner
• .env files are mode 600, owned by deploy

Provisioning log

• 2026-07-05: Test/Int stage directories, .env files, Caddy vhosts (TLS live), deploy user, act_runner (v0.6.1, systemd) and registry login provisioned on the shared 4-GB VPS (188.245.116.44); Gitea Actions enabled instance-wide (app.ini on BASEL, backup kept). First pipeline run = this commit.
• 2026-07-11: Everything moved to the dedicated host ONE (one.101010.cloud, 168.119.32.247) after Gitea itself relocated there: stage volumes (db-data, uploads) and .env files copied 1:1, compose files refreshed from the repo (now includes the plugins volume from #71), Caddy vhosts recreated (prod block prepared but commented out), act_runner one-dorfteich registered, old VPS runner and stacks stopped (kept as rollback reserve). DEPLOY_HOST in cd.yml and the DEPLOY_HOST_KEY secret updated accordingly.
• 2026-07-11 (later): act_runner capacity raised from 1 to 4 in /home/deploy/act_runner/config.yaml — ONE has the headroom, so the independent CI jobs now run in parallel (the CD chain stays sequential via needs:).
