Add Docker + Gitea Actions auto-deploy to /opt/ttvfx_web
Deploy / deploy (push) Failing after 1s

Matches the vfxreview/xbid setup: runner pulls and runs docker compose;
nginx:alpine serves the static export on the npm_default network behind
Nginx Proxy Manager. DEPLOY.md has the one-time SSH setup steps.

# Deploying twotalesvfx.com
The site is a fully static export, so there is no Node process to run in production.
Same setup as the other apps (vfxreview, xbid):
## 1. Build
```
git push main ──► Gitea Actions runner ──► cd /opt/ttvfx_web && git pull
docker compose up -d --build
│
Cloudflare ──► Nginx Proxy Manager ──► ttvfx-web:80 (nginx, static files)
(npm_default network)
```
Files involved:
| File | What it does |
|------|--------------|
| `Dockerfile` | Builds the static export with Node 20, then serves `out/` from `nginx:alpine` |
| `docker/nginx.conf` | nginx config inside the container (routes, 404 page, caching, relative redirects) |
| `docker-compose.yml` | One service, container name `ttvfx-web`, joined to the external `npm_default` network, no host ports |
| `.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml` | On push to `main`: pull in `/opt/ttvfx_web` and rebuild |
There is no `.env` and no database. The site is fully static.
---
## One-time setup on the server
### 1. SSH in
```bash
npm ci
npm run build # outputs ./out
ssh <you>@178.104.56.62 # git.twotalesvfx.com's IP; use your usual host if different
```
Or build on the server straight from git:
### 2. Check how the existing apps are set up, and copy that
```bash
git clone https://git.twotalesvfx.com/pinto/ttvfx.git /opt/ttvfx
cd /opt/ttvfx && npm ci && npm run build
ls -la /opt # note the owner of /opt/xbid and /opt/vfxreview
git -C /opt/xbid remote -v # note HOW it authenticates (https+token, ssh, ...)
docker network ls | grep npm_default
```
## 2. DNS (Cloudflare)
`npm_default` must exist. It's the Nginx Proxy Manager network.
`twotalesvfx.com` is already on Cloudflare (proxied). Point the apex and `www`
at the VPS and leave the existing `review` and `git` records alone:
### 3. Clone into /opt/ttvfx_web
| Type | Name | Value | Proxy |
|------|-------|--------------|---------|
| A | `@` | `<VPS IPv4>` | Proxied |
| A | `www` | `<VPS IPv4>` | Proxied |
At the time of writing the apex returned Cloudflare **522** (origin unreachable),
so the current `@` record needs updating.
SSL/TLS mode: **Full (strict)**, using either certbot (below) or a Cloudflare
Origin Certificate installed in nginx.
## 3. Upload
If building locally:
Use the same remote style as `/opt/xbid` so the runner's `git pull` can authenticate.
For example, if xbid uses an https remote:
```bash
rsync -avz --delete out/ user@your-vps:/var/www/twotalesvfx.com/
sudo git clone https://git.twotalesvfx.com/pinto/ttvfx.git /opt/ttvfx_web
```
If building on the server, copy or symlink `/opt/ttvfx/out` to `/var/www/twotalesvfx.com`.
## 4. nginx
`/etc/nginx/sites-available/twotalesvfx.com`:
```nginx
server {
listen 80;
server_name twotalesvfx.com www.twotalesvfx.com;
root /var/www/twotalesvfx.com;
# www -> apex
if ($host = www.twotalesvfx.com) { return 301 https://twotalesvfx.com$request_uri; }
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ $uri.html =404;
}
# Hashed build assets can be cached forever
location /_next/static/ {
add_header Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable";
}
# Video: allow range requests to be cached
location ~* \.mp4$ {
add_header Cache-Control "public, max-age=604800";
}
error_page 404 /404.html;
gzip on;
gzip_types text/css application/javascript image/svg+xml application/json;
}
```
Then match the ownership of the other app folders (replace `<owner>` with what `ls -la /opt` showed):
```bash
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/twotalesvfx.com /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
sudo nginx -t && sudo systemctl reload nginx
sudo certbot --nginx -d twotalesvfx.com -d www.twotalesvfx.com # HTTPS via Let's Encrypt
sudo chown -R <owner>:<owner> /opt/ttvfx_web
```
(For Apache, set `DocumentRoot` to the same folder plus `ErrorDocument 404 /404.html`.
Because the build uses `trailingSlash`, every page is a folder with its own `index.html`.)
If xbid's remote URL contains a token or uses SSH, clone this one the same way
(e.g. `git clone git@git.twotalesvfx.com:pinto/ttvfx.git /opt/ttvfx_web`).
### 4. First build by hand
```bash
cd /opt/ttvfx_web
docker compose up -d --build
docker ps --filter name=ttvfx-web # should be "Up"
```
The first build takes a minute or two (npm install + Next build). Later builds reuse the cache.
Check that it serves from inside the proxy network:
```bash
docker run --rm --network npm_default curlimages/curl -sI http://ttvfx-web/
# -> HTTP/1.1 200 OK
```
### 5. Nginx Proxy Manager: add the proxy host
In the NPM web UI → **Hosts → Proxy Hosts → Add Proxy Host**:
- **Domain names:** `twotalesvfx.com`, `www.twotalesvfx.com`
- **Scheme:** `http`
- **Forward hostname / IP:** `ttvfx-web`
- **Forward port:** `80`
- Tick **Block common exploits**. Websockets aren't needed.
- **SSL tab:** request a new Let's Encrypt certificate, then tick **Force SSL** and **HTTP/2**.
- Cloudflare is proxying the domain. If the HTTP challenge fails, either grey-cloud the two
records for a minute while the cert is issued, or use **DNS challenge → Cloudflare**
with an API token. Use whichever you did for `review.` / `xbid.`.
### 6. Cloudflare DNS
The apex currently returns **522** (Cloudflare can't reach the origin). Point it at this server:
| Type | Name | Value | Proxy |
|------|-------|------------------|---------|
| A | `@` | `178.104.56.62` | Proxied |
| A | `www` | `178.104.56.62` | Proxied |
(Confirm the server's IP with `curl -4 ifconfig.me` on the box.) Leave `review`, `git`, `xbid` etc. alone.
Set **SSL/TLS → Full (strict)**, the same as the other subdomains.
### 7. Turn on auto-deploy
The workflow is already in the repo (`.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml`). In Gitea, open
**pinto/ttvfx → Settings → Repository → Enable Actions** if it isn't enabled already
(it's on for the other repos). The existing runner picks the job up. It uses the same
`ubuntu-latest` label and `/opt:/opt` mount as xbid.
Test it: push any commit to `main` and watch **Actions** in the repo. The job should run
`git pull` and `docker compose up -d --build`, then the site updates.
---
## Day to day
```bash
git push # from your machine. That's it, the runner deploys.
```
Manual redeploy or logs on the server:
```bash
cd /opt/ttvfx_web && git pull && docker compose up -d --build
docker logs -f ttvfx-web
```
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Fix |
|---------|-----|
| Action fails on `git pull` with *dubious ownership* | `git config --global --add safe.directory /opt/ttvfx_web` (run it however you did for xbid), or fix ownership to match `/opt/xbid` |
| Action fails on `git pull` with *authentication* | The clone's remote URL needs the same credentials as `/opt/xbid` (`git -C /opt/xbid remote -v`) |
| `network npm_default declared as external, but could not be found` | NPM's network has a different name on this box. Check `docker network ls` and update `docker-compose.yml` |
| NPM shows **502 Bad Gateway** | Container not running (`docker ps`) or wrong forward host. It must be `ttvfx-web`, port `80` |
| Cloudflare **522** | DNS `@`/`www` still point at the wrong IP, or ports 80/443 are firewalled |
| Old content after deploy | Purge Cloudflare cache (Caching → Purge Everything). HTML isn't cached long, but video and images are cached for 7 days |
