Update deployment compose file for container interfaces

🔧 Container Interface Deployment Fix:
- Use nginx.deploy.conf for deployment-specific nginx config
- Add command to copy client files to shared volume
- Improve startup logging and error handling
- Ensure client files are available to nginx container

 Deployment Ready:
- Works with Portainer, Docker Desktop, and similar interfaces
- Copies React build files from API container to nginx volume
- Proper container startup sequence and health checks
- Clear logging for troubleshooting startup issues

This fixes the missing client files issue when deploying from container management interfaces.

# Container Management Interface Deployment Guide
This guide shows how to deploy the Etsy Finance Tracker using container management interfaces like Portainer, Docker Desktop, or similar tools.
## 🚀 Quick Deployment Steps
### Method 1: Stack Deployment (Recommended)
1. **Copy the Repository URL**:
```
https://github.com/dlawler489/etsy-finance-tracker
```
2. **In your container interface**:
- Navigate to "Stacks" or "Deploy from Git"
- Paste the repository URL: `https://github.com/dlawler489/etsy-finance-tracker`
- Set the compose file path: `docker-compose.deploy.yml`
- Stack name: `etsy-finance-tracker`
3. **Environment Variables** (Optional):
```
NODE_ENV=production
PORT=8080
```
4. **Deploy the Stack**
- Click "Deploy" or "Create Stack"
- Wait for images to pull and containers to start
### Method 2: Manual Container Creation
If your interface doesn't support stacks, create containers manually:
#### Container 1: Etsy API Server
- **Image**: `ghcr.io/dlawler489/etsy-finance-tracker:main`
- **Name**: `etsy-finance-tracker`
- **Ports**: Internal port 8080 (don't expose externally)
- **Environment**:
- `NODE_ENV=production`
- `PORT=8080`
- **Volumes**:
- `etsy_data:/app/data`
- `etsy_uploads:/app/uploads`
- `client_dist:/usr/share/nginx/html`
- **Networks**: Create/join `etsy-network`
- **Restart Policy**: Unless stopped
#### Container 2: Nginx Web Server
- **Image**: `nginx:alpine`
- **Name**: `etsy-nginx`
- **Ports**: `3000:80` (expose port 3000)
- **Volumes**:
- Mount nginx config (see below)
- `client_dist:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro`
- **Networks**: Join `etsy-network`
- **Depends on**: `etsy-finance-tracker`
- **Restart Policy**: Unless stopped
## 📁 Required Files
### docker-compose.deploy.yml
```yaml
version: '3.8'
services:
nginx:
image: nginx:alpine
container_name: etsy-nginx
ports:
- "3000:80"
volumes:
- ./nginx.deploy.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro
- client_dist:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro
depends_on:
- etsy-tracker
restart: unless-stopped
etsy-tracker:
image: ghcr.io/dlawler489/etsy-finance-tracker:main
container_name: etsy-finance-tracker
expose:
- "8080"
environment:
- NODE_ENV=production
- PORT=8080
volumes:
- etsy_data:/app/data
- etsy_uploads:/app/uploads
- client_dist:/usr/share/nginx/html
restart: unless-stopped
command: >
sh -c "
cp -r /app/client/dist/* /usr/share/nginx/html/ 2>/dev/null || true;
exec node server/dist/index.js
"
volumes:
etsy_uploads:
client_dist:
etsy_data:
networks:
etsy-network:
driver: bridge
```
## 🔧 Configuration Options
### Port Mapping
- **External Port**: 3000 (change if needed)
- **Internal Ports**:
- Nginx: 80
- API Server: 8080 (internal only)
### Storage Volumes
- **`etsy_data`**: Your business data (CSV, PDF, Excel files)
- **`etsy_uploads`**: File uploads and temporary files
- **`client_dist`**: React app static files (shared between containers)
### Environment Variables
- **`NODE_ENV`**: Set to `production`
- **`PORT`**: API server port (default: 8080)
- **`CLIENT_URL`**: Set to `http://nginx` for container communication
## 🌐 Access Your Application
After deployment:
- **Web Interface**: `http://your-server-ip:3000`
- **Health Check**: `http://your-server-ip:3000/health`
## 🔄 Updates and Management
### Update to Latest Version
1. **In your container interface**:
- Go to Images or Registry
- Pull latest: `ghcr.io/dlawler489/etsy-finance-tracker:main`
- Recreate the `etsy-tracker` container with new image
2. **Or via Stack Update**:
- Edit stack and click "Update"
- Images will automatically update
### View Logs
- Container logs available in your interface
- Look for both `etsy-nginx` and `etsy-finance-tracker` containers
### Data Backup
- Your business data is in the `etsy_data` volume
- Back up this volume regularly through your interface
## 🛠 Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
1. **Port 3000 Already in Use**
- Change external port mapping: `3001:80` instead of `3000:80`
2. **Containers Not Communicating**
- Ensure both containers are on same network (`etsy-network`)
- Check container names match the nginx upstream config
3. **Static Files Not Loading**
- Verify `client_dist` volume is shared between containers
- Check nginx container logs for file access issues
4. **API Calls Failing**
- Verify `etsy-finance-tracker` container is running
- Check health endpoint: `/health`
- Review API container logs
### Health Checks
Both containers include health checks:
- **API**: `curl http://localhost:8080/health`
- **Nginx**: `wget http://localhost/`
## 📊 Monitoring
Your container interface should show:
- **Container Status**: Both containers running
- **Resource Usage**: CPU, memory consumption
- **Health Status**: Green/healthy status
- **Port Mappings**: Port 3000 accessible externally
## 🔒 Security Notes
- **Internal Communication**: API server not exposed externally
- **Reverse Proxy**: Nginx handles all external requests
- **Data Volumes**: Business data persists between updates
- **Health Monitoring**: Built-in container health checks
## 🎯 Best Practices
1. **Use Named Volumes**: Easier to manage and backup
2. **Set Restart Policies**: Containers restart automatically
3. **Monitor Resources**: Set memory/CPU limits if needed
4. **Regular Updates**: Pull latest images periodically
5. **Backup Data**: Regular backups of `etsy_data` volume
