# Deploying Podcast Distribution AI on Dokploy

Containerized deploy: one image, two services (`web` + `worker`) via Docker
Compose, a persistent volume for generated assets, an **external** Postgres, and
**no Redis**. Dokploy's bundled Traefik handles the domain, TLS, and SSE streaming.

Artifacts: [`Dockerfile`](../Dockerfile), [`docker-compose.yml`](../docker-compose.yml), [`.dockerignore`](../.dockerignore).

## 1. Create the app in Dokploy
- New Project → **Create Service → Compose**.
- **Provider:** Git → `https://git.serfaty.co/admin/podcastdistributiona`, branch `main`.
- **Compose path:** `docker-compose.yml`.

## 2. Environment (Dokploy → Environment tab)
These feed both the build args (`NEXT_PUBLIC_*`) and runtime env. Minimum:
```
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/db?schema=public
BETTER_AUTH_SECRET=<openssl rand -base64 32>
BETTER_AUTH_URL=https://podcastdistributionai.com
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL=https://podcastdistributionai.com
EMAIL_FROM=Podcast Distribution AI <noreply@podcastdistributionai.com>

ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=...
RESEND_API_KEY=...            # optional (emails)
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=...          # optional (OAuth)
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=...
# Billing (optional until you sell)
STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=...
STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=...

STRIPE_PRICE_CREATOR_MONTHLY=...  # + PRO/AGENCY, _YEARLY

PAYPAL_WEBHOOK_ID=...
PAYPAL_API_BASE=https://api-m.paypal.com
PAYPAL_PLAN_CREATOR=...            # + PRO/AGENCY
```
`STORAGE_DIR` and `PORT` are set in the compose file — don't override.

## 3. Domain + SSL
Dokploy → the **web** service → **Domains** → add your domain, container port **3000**, enable HTTPS (Let's Encrypt). Traefik streams responses, so the episode-generation SSE works with no extra config.

## 4. Deploy
Hit **Deploy**. The build installs deps + ffmpeg, runs `next build`, and starts:
- `web` runs `prisma migrate deploy` (applies all migrations) then `next start`.
- `worker` runs the pg-boss consumer (ffmpeg available in-image).
Both share the `storage` volume at `/app/storage` (mp3/art/exports). Add a volume backup schedule in Dokploy.

## 5. First admin
Dokploy → web service → **Terminal** (or `docker exec`):
```bash
npx tsx scripts/make-admin.ts you@email.com
```
Then visit `/admin`.

## 6. Webhooks
- Stripe → `https://your-domain/api/webhooks/stripe` (events `checkout.session.completed`, `customer.subscription.created/updated/deleted`); set `STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET` + the `STRIPE_PRICE_*`.
- PayPal → `https://your-domain/api/webhooks/paypal` (`BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.*`); set `PAYPAL_WEBHOOK_ID` + `PAYPAL_PLAN_*`.

## Redeploys
Push to `main` → Dokploy auto-deploys (enable the Git webhook), or click **Redeploy**. Migrations run automatically on each `web` boot.

## Notes
- **Assets** are served by the app (authed `/api/assets/...`, public `/api/public/episodes/[shareId]/...`) — no separate static route needed.
- **Scaling:** the `worker` can be scaled or moved to its own Compose/host pointing at the same `DATABASE_URL`; swap local disk for S3/R2 by adding `lib/storage/s3.ts` and switching the registry in `lib/storage/index.ts`.
- **Build args:** `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` are baked at image-build time; changing them requires a rebuild (Dokploy does this on deploy).
