# Deployment Step-by-step for the backend (Docker + Traefik) and the Bromite userscript. Assumes you already run Traefik in Docker with a working HTTPS entrypoint and an ACME/cert resolver, and control a domain. --- ## 0. Prerequisites - Docker + Docker Compose on the server. - A Traefik instance watching a Docker network (default name assumed: `proxy`). - DNS: an `A`/`AAAA` record for `bookmark-api.` pointing at the server. - The repo copied to the server, e.g. `~/mangaBookmark/` (needs `backend/`, `docker-compose.yml`, `docker-compose.prod.yml`, `.env.example`). Confirm the Traefik network exists (create if not): ```bash docker network ls | grep proxy || docker network create proxy ``` --- ## 1. Configure `.env` ```bash cd ~/mangaBookmark cp .env.example .env ``` Edit `.env`: ```ini # Required — secret every Reader's userscript credential is derived from. # Only SHA-256 hashes of credentials are stored. TOKEN_KEY= # Required — the owner's Discord user ID. Seeds the one Reader every bookmark # belongs to; the value is the snowflake in your Discord profile (Settings → # Advanced → Developer Mode → right-click your name → Copy User ID). OWNER_DISCORD_ID= # CORS allowlist — leave as-is unless a site changes hostname. ALLOWED_ORIGINS=https://asuracomic.net,https://asurascans.com,https://demonicscans.org,https://comix.to,https://kagane.to # Required — password for the bundled Postgres container. Compose builds the # backend's DATABASE_URL out of it and has no fallback for either. POSTGRES_PASSWORD= # Leave unset. Only set this to point the backend at a Postgres compose does # not run; it then replaces the URL built from POSTGRES_PASSWORD above. # DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:pass@host:5432/bookmarks?sslmode=require # Required for the Traefik override. Both have no fallback — compose refuses # to start without them. BOOKMARK_WEB_HOST is required even if the web UI # were unused; see 1b. BOOKMARK_API_HOST=bookmark-api.violetcrown.my.id BOOKMARK_WEB_HOST=bookmark.violetcrown.my.id # Only if your Traefik setup differs from these defaults: # PROXY_NETWORK=proxy # TRAEFIK_ENTRYPOINT=websecure # TRAEFIK_CERTRESOLVER=le ``` Generate + insert the two secrets in three lines: ```bash sed -i "s|^TOKEN_KEY=.*|TOKEN_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 32)|" .env sed -i "s|^POSTGRES_PASSWORD=.*|POSTGRES_PASSWORD=$(openssl rand -hex 24)|" .env grep -E '^TOKEN_KEY=' .env ``` `TOKEN_KEY` derives every Reader's userscript credential (issue #24); only SHA-256 hashes of the credentials are stored, so this secret is what a database leak alone cannot recover. If you are upgrading across the cutover, also set `API_TOKEN` (the retired global credential) and `API_TOKEN_GRACE_UNTIL` in `.env` so already-installed scripts keep working for the window — see §6. `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` is read **only while the `postgres-data` volume is empty**, which in practice means at first boot. Changing it afterwards changes the URL the backend dials but not the password the database expects, and `bookmark-api` crash-loops on `password authentication failed`. Set it before §2 and leave it alone. > Match `TRAEFIK_ENTRYPOINT` / `TRAEFIK_CERTRESOLVER` to your Traefik's actual > names (check your Traefik static config — common alternatives: `https`, > `myresolver`, `cloudflare`). Wrong names = no certificate issued. --- ## 1b. Web UI The browser UI is served by the same container on a second hostname. Sign-in is a Discord authorization code grant (ADR-0002): the owner's Discord account, gated by membership in one configured guild. 1. Add a DNS `A`/`AAAA` record for `bookmark.` pointing at the server — the same address as `bookmark-api.`. 2. Create the Discord application at : - **OAuth2 → Redirects:** add the exact callback URL `https://bookmark.violetcrown.my.id/auth/discord/callback`. Discord matches it verbatim — a trailing slash or different hostname breaks sign-in. - **OAuth2 → General:** note the Client ID, and generate a Client Secret. - No scopes or bot setup are needed in the dashboard; the service requests `identify` and `guilds.members.read` itself, and checks the *user's* membership of the guild, not the application's. 3. Set the variables in `.env`: ```ini BOOKMARK_WEB_HOST=bookmark.violetcrown.my.id DISCORD_CLIENT_ID= DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET= DISCORD_GUILD_ID= DISCORD_REDIRECT_URI=https://bookmark.violetcrown.my.id/auth/discord/callback # Optional: only members holding this role may sign in. # DISCORD_REQUIRED_ROLE= ``` The guild id is in Discord's client with Developer Mode on: right-click the server name → Copy Server ID. The four uncommented variables are required — the backend refuses to start without them. `OWNER_DISCORD_ID` from §1 is the only Discord identity allowed to sign in while registration is closed. 4. Redeploy and check: ```bash docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' https://bookmark.violetcrown.my.id/ ``` Expected `200`, serving the login page with the Discord button. Signing in lands on the library; an account outside the guild is refused with a message that names neither the guild nor its id. Sessions are rows in the database: the cookie carries only an opaque id, and every request looks the row up and checks its expiry. Deleting a session row — or the whole `sessions` table — logs the browser out immediately; nothing is signed, so rotating a credential does not affect browser sessions. Sessions last 60 days. --- ## 2. Build + start ```bash docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build ``` This merges the base file (build/image/env/volume) with the prod override (no host port, Traefik network + router labels). Always pass **both** `-f` flags — the prod file is not standalone. Three services come up: `bookmark-api` (the backend), `postgres` (its database, `postgres:17-alpine`), and `headless-shell`, a CDP sidecar the poller uses to fetch kagane (behind a Cloudflare JS challenge). Neither of the latter two publishes a port: `postgres` sits alone with `bookmark-api` on an `internal: true` network, and `headless-shell` is reachable only over `BROWSER_WS_URL`. A missing headless-shell just makes the poller skip kagane and log it. A missing Postgres stops everything — `bookmark-api` waits for `pg_isready` to pass, then applies its embedded migrations, and only then listens. The schema is created that way; there is nothing to import by hand. Check it's up and healthy: ```bash docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml ps # bookmark-api Up; postgres Up (healthy) docker logs bookmark-api --tail 20 # expect: "listening on :8080 ..." ``` --- ## 3. Verify over HTTPS Give Traefik a few seconds to issue the cert, then: ```bash # Health (no auth) — must be valid TLS, no cert warning. curl -s https://bookmark-api.violetcrown.my.id/healthz # -> ok # Auth enforced. curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' \ https://bookmark-api.violetcrown.my.id/bookmarks # -> 401 # During the grace window the retired global credential still resolves to the # owner; afterwards it is 401 like any other wrong credential. TOKEN=$(grep -E '^API_TOKEN=' .env | cut -d= -f2) curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \ https://bookmark-api.violetcrown.my.id/bookmarks # -> [] # CORS preflight from a real site origin. curl -s -i -X OPTIONS \ -H 'Origin: https://asurascans.com' \ -H 'Access-Control-Request-Method: PUT' \ https://bookmark-api.violetcrown.my.id/bookmarks/x | grep -i access-control # -> Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://asurascans.com (+ Methods/Headers) ``` All four must pass. Valid TLS is non-negotiable — the manga sites are HTTPS, so a bad cert makes the browser block the userscript's `fetch()` (mixed content). --- ## 4. Configure the userscript The bindmounted `userscript/*.user.js` files carry `__API_TOKEN__` placeholders and the deployment's `@downloadURL`/`@updateURL` lines. Check the metadata block — it ships hardcoded to this deployment's domain, so a deployer who copies the repo to another domain must edit the two lines or the script auto-updates from someone else's backend: ```js // @downloadURL https://bookmark-api.yourdomain.com/u/__API_TOKEN__/manga-bookmark.user.js // @updateURL https://bookmark-api.yourdomain.com/u/__API_TOKEN__/manga-bookmark.user.js ``` The backend substitutes `__API_TOKEN__` with the requesting Reader's derived credential at serve time (issue #24), so no real credential ever sits in the file. Only the `API_BASE` constant and the metadata hostname are deployer edits; do not put a credential in this file. --- ## 5. Install on Bromite 1. Bromite → **Settings → User scripts** → enable (accept the permission prompt). 2. Sign in to the web UI, open the **Userscripts** panel, and open the install link — Bromite detects `.user.js` and offers to install. The script already carries your credential; you never see or type one. 3. Confirm install — the `@match` list covers both sites. 4. Open a series on asurascans.com or demonicscans.org → a 📑 button appears bottom-right → tap → **+ Bookmark this**. Optional desktop test: the script is `GM_*`-free, so the same file installs in Tampermonkey/Violentmonkey for quick checks before going mobile. Rotating the credential in the same web-UI panel invalidates every installed copy immediately — reinstall on all devices, or they silently stop syncing. --- ## 6. Smoke-test the full loop 1. Bookmark a series on Asura. 2. `curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" https://bookmark-api.yourdomain.com/bookmarks` on the server — the series should appear. 3. Open a chapter of that series — reopen the panel; last-read updates to that chapter (auto, never regresses on older chapters). 4. Open Demonic, open the panel — the Asura bookmark shows there too (shared store, cross-site unified list). --- ## Updating Pull new code, then rebuild: ```bash docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build ``` Data persists in the named volume `postgres-data` across rebuilds. (If this server predates the Postgres migration, the old SQLite volume `bookmarks-data` is still on disk and deliberately undeclared in compose so `down -v` cannot take it; see `REDEPLOY.md` §1 for when to remove it.) --- ## Troubleshooting | Symptom | Likely cause / fix | |---------|--------------------| | No cert / TLS error at the domain | `TRAEFIK_ENTRYPOINT` or `TRAEFIK_CERTRESOLVER` name wrong; or DNS not resolving yet. Check `docker logs `. | | 404 from Traefik | Service not on the `proxy` network, or `BOOKMARK_API_HOST` mismatch. Confirm `docker network inspect proxy` lists `bookmark-api`. | | `fetch` fails in the userscript, `curl` works | Origin missing from `ALLOWED_ORIGINS`, or mixed content (backend not HTTPS). | | 401 with the right credential | The script's credential no longer matches the stored hash — most likely a rotation happened and the device was not reinstalled. Reinstall from the web UI. | | 401 after rotation, even right after reinstalling | `TOKEN_KEY` changed between the rotation and the reinstall; credentials are derived from it, so changing it invalidates every credential. Keep it stable. | | Panel button absent | URL didn't match an adapter, or user scripts disabled in Bromite. | | `compose ... config` errors about `TOKEN_KEY`, `OWNER_DISCORD_ID` or `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` | Run compose from the dir with `.env`, or export the vars. All three are required and none has a fallback. | | `bookmark-api` restarts in a loop, `password authentication failed for user "bookmarks"` | `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` was changed after first boot; Postgres only applies it to an empty `postgres-data`. Restore the old value, or reset the role (`REDEPLOY.md` troubleshooting). | | `bookmark-api` never logs `listening on :8080` | It is blocked on `postgres` passing `pg_isready`, or a migration failed. `docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs postgres`. | Backend config reference and endpoint list: see `README.md`. --- ## Installing / updating the userscript The backend serves the script itself, so Violentmonkey can auto-update it. Complements §4 above — the `@downloadURL`/`@updateURL` lines point at the credential-bearing path, so auto-updates come from the same place as the install. Install once, on the phone (Cromite + Violentmonkey): sign in to the web UI, open the **Userscripts** panel, and open the install link for the library — the script is served with your credential already inside it. Its `@downloadURL`/`@updateURL` point at the same credential-bearing path for updates: ``` https://bookmark-api./u//manga-bookmark.user.js ``` Violentmonkey offers to install it. The credential is in the path because Violentmonkey's update poll sends no `Authorization` header, and the script embeds the credential in plain text — an open URL would leak it. A wrong credential answers 404. The credential is derived from `TOKEN_KEY` and never appears anywhere but this URL and the rendered script. Updating, without a redeploy: ```bash vi userscript/manga-bookmark.user.js # on the VPS, in this checkout ``` `./userscript` is bindmounted read-only into the container and read fresh on every request, so the edit is live immediately. The served `@version` is derived from the file's mtime (`YYYY.MM.DD.HHMM`, UTC), not from the `@version` in the file, so any edit outranks the installed copy and Violentmonkey pulls it on its next check. The `@version` in the repo is a human marker only. Updating via redeploy: `git pull` overwrites the file with the committed version, which is the intended behaviour — a deploy always ships the repo's script. Note that `git pull` sets mtime to checkout time, so even a rollback serves a *higher* version and is adopted. If the mount is missing, the endpoint answers 404 and logs it; bookmark sync is unaffected.
