- Document the useful show-config.js script and related npm scripts
- Add section explaining bun run config, config:env, config:help commands
- These commands help developers understand the unified configuration system
- Script is functional and well-integrated, so keeping it and making it more discoverable
- Remove irrelevant deployment and production information (app not deployed yet)
- Focus on current development state and local development workflow
- Consolidate redundant sections and remove duplicate commands
- Simplify quick start to focus on development setup
- Remove complex deployment scenarios (K8s, cloud providers, production scripts)
- Streamline Docker section to focus on development use
- Consolidate troubleshooting to common development issues
- Remove extensive production deployment guides and cloud provider instructions
- Simplify API documentation to overview level
- Focus on development workflow rather than operational concerns
Result: README is now ~50% shorter and focused on actual current capabilities
- Update README.md to remove references to deleted migration/deployment docs
- Fix CONTRIBUTING.md to point to correct documentation paths
- Remove broken references in API.md to non-existent files
- Update ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES.md to reference existing documentation
- Ensure all documentation links work correctly after reorganization
- Add Configuration section explaining unified config approach
- Document config helper commands (bun run config, config:help)
- Update deployment section to focus on essential overrides
- Remove references to deleted deployment infrastructure
- Explain single source of truth philosophy
- Provide examples of environment variable usage
- Emphasize smart defaults and type safety
🚀 New Deployment Commands:
- deploy-local: Docker-based local deployment (http://localhost:8080)
- deploy-demo: Demo deployment with development settings
- deploy-prod-quick: Production deployment with auto-generated secrets
- deploy-prod-configured: Production deployment with pre-configured secrets
- stop-local: Stop local Docker deployment
🔧 Fixes:
- Fixed deploy-prod-quick to properly generate secure secrets
- Updated local deployments to use development environment
- Fixed Docker Compose environment variable handling
- Improved error handling and user feedback
📚 Documentation:
- Added Quick Deployment Guide (docs/QUICK_DEPLOYMENT.md)
- Updated README with practical deployment guidance
- Clear explanation of deployment options and use cases
- Troubleshooting section for common issues
✨ Features:
- Auto-generated secure JWT and session secrets for production
- Local Docker deployment with persistent CouchDB
- Clear separation between development and production processes
- Comprehensive deployment option matrix
🧪 Verification:
- ✅ Local deployment: make deploy-local (working with Docker)
- ✅ Production build: JWT_SECRET=x SESSION_SECRET=y make build-prod (working)
- ✅ Development build: make build (working)
- ✅ All existing functionality preserved
🎯 Ready for use:
- Immediate testing: make deploy-local
- Production deployment: make deploy-prod-quick
🔧 Build Process Improvements:
- Update default 'build' target to use development mode
- Add new 'build-prod' target for production builds with validation
- Fix 'deploy-prod-quick' to use production build command
- Update 'build-test' to use development build (safer for CI)
📚 Documentation:
- Add comprehensive Production Build Guide (docs/deployment/PRODUCTION_BUILD.md)
- Include security requirements, configuration methods, and troubleshooting
- Update main documentation index with production build guide
- Update README with both build command options
✨ Features:
- Development builds work without security configuration
- Production builds require proper JWT/SESSION secrets
- Clear separation between dev and prod build processes
- Comprehensive production deployment documentation
🔒 Security:
- Enforced JWT_SECRET validation for production builds
- Clear documentation of required security configurations
- Examples for CI/CD integration with proper secret management
- Best practices for production deployment
🧪 Verification:
- ✅ Development build: make build (works with warnings)
- ✅ Production build validation: make build-prod (fails without secrets)
- ✅ Production build with secrets: works correctly
- ✅ All existing functionality preserved
