# OpenClimb Sync Server Deployment Guide
This guide covers deploying the OpenClimb Sync Server using the automated Docker build and deployment system.
## Overview
The sync server is automatically built into a Docker container via GitHub Actions and can be deployed to any Docker-compatible environment.
## Prerequisites
- Docker and Docker Compose installed
- Access to the container registry (configured in GitHub secrets)
- Basic understanding of Docker deployments
## Quick Start
### 1. Automated Deployment (Recommended)
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone <your-repo-url>
cd OpenClimb/sync-server
# Run the deployment script
./deploy.sh
```
The script will:
- Create necessary directories
- Pull the latest container image
- Stop any existing containers
- Start the new container
- Verify deployment success
### 2. Manual Deployment
```bash
# Pull the latest image
docker pull your-registry.com/username/openclimb-sync-server:latest
# Create environment file
cp .env.example .env.prod
# Edit .env.prod with your configuration
# Deploy with docker-compose
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
```
## Configuration
### Environment Variables
Create a `.env.prod` file with the following variables:
```bash
# Container registry settings
REPO_HOST=your-registry.example.com
REPO_OWNER=your-username
# Server configuration
AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-auth-token-here-make-it-long-and-random
PORT=8080
# Optional: Custom domain (for Traefik)
TRAEFIK_HOST=sync.openclimb.example.com
```
### Required Secrets (GitHub)
Configure these secrets in your GitHub repository settings:
- `REPO_HOST`: Your container registry hostname
- `DEPLOY_TOKEN`: Authentication token for the registry
## Container Build Process
The GitHub Action (`sync-server-deploy.yml`) automatically:
1. **Triggers on:**
- Push to `main` branch (when sync-server files change)
- Pull requests to `main` branch
2. **Build Process:**
- Uses multi-stage Docker build
- Compiles Go binary in builder stage
- Creates minimal Alpine-based runtime image
- Pushes to container registry with tags:
- `latest` (always points to newest)
- `<commit-sha>` (specific version)
3. **Caching:**
- Uses GitHub Actions cache for faster builds
- Incremental builds when possible
## Deployment Options
### Option 1: Simple Docker Run
```bash
docker run -d \
--name openclimb-sync-server \
-p 8080:8080 \
-v $(pwd)/data:/root/data \
-e AUTH_TOKEN=your-token-here \
your-registry.com/username/openclimb-sync-server:latest
```
### Option 2: Docker Compose (Recommended)
```bash
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
```
### Option 3: Kubernetes
```yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: openclimb-sync-server
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app: openclimb-sync-server
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: openclimb-sync-server
spec:
containers:
- name: sync-server
image: your-registry.com/username/openclimb-sync-server:latest
ports:
- containerPort: 8080
env:
- name: AUTH_TOKEN
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: openclimb-secrets
key: auth-token
volumeMounts:
- name: data-volume
mountPath: /root/data
volumes:
- name: data-volume
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: openclimb-data
```
## Data Persistence
The sync server stores data in `/root/data` inside the container. **Always mount a volume** to preserve data:
```bash
# Local directory mounting
-v $(pwd)/data:/root/data
# Named volume (recommended for production)
-v openclimb-data:/root/data
```
### Data Structure
```
data/
├── climb_data.json # Main sync data
├── images/ # Uploaded images
│ ├── problem_*.jpg
│ └── ...
└── logs/ # Server logs (optional)
```
## Monitoring and Maintenance
### Health Check
```bash
curl http://localhost:8080/health
```
### View Logs
```bash
# Docker Compose
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -f
# Direct Docker
docker logs -f openclimb-sync-server
```
### Update to Latest Version
```bash
# Using deploy script
./deploy.sh
# Manual update
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
```
## Reverse Proxy Setup (Optional)
### Nginx
```nginx
server {
listen 80;
server_name sync.openclimb.example.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
}
}
```
### Traefik (Labels included in docker-compose.prod.yml)
```yaml
labels:
- "traefik.enable=true"
- "traefik.http.routers.openclimb-sync.rule=Host(`sync.openclimb.example.com`)"
- "traefik.http.routers.openclimb-sync.tls.certresolver=letsencrypt"
```
## Security Considerations
1. **AUTH_TOKEN**: Use a long, random token (32+ characters)
2. **HTTPS**: Always use HTTPS in production (via reverse proxy)
3. **Firewall**: Only expose port 8080 to your reverse proxy, not publicly
4. **Updates**: Regularly update to the latest container image
5. **Backups**: Regularly backup the `data/` directory
## Troubleshooting
### Container Won't Start
```bash
# Check logs
docker logs openclimb-sync-server
# Common issues:
# - Missing AUTH_TOKEN environment variable
# - Port 8080 already in use
# - Insufficient permissions on data directory
```
### Sync Fails from Mobile Apps
```bash
# Verify server is accessible
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token" http://your-server:8080/sync
# Check server logs for authentication errors
docker logs openclimb-sync-server | grep "401\|403"
```
### Image Upload Issues
```bash
# Check disk space
df -h
# Verify data directory permissions
ls -la data/
```
## Performance Tuning
For high-load deployments:
```yaml
# docker-compose.prod.yml
services:
openclimb-sync-server:
deploy:
resources:
limits:
memory: 512M
cpus: '0.5'
reservations:
memory: 256M
cpus: '0.25'
```
## Backup Strategy
```bash
#!/bin/bash
# backup.sh - Run daily via cron
DATE=$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S)
BACKUP_DIR="/backups/openclimb"
# Create backup directory
mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"
# Backup data directory
tar -czf "$BACKUP_DIR/openclimb_data_$DATE.tar.gz" \
-C /path/to/sync-server data/
# Keep only last 30 days
find "$BACKUP_DIR" -name "openclimb_data_*.tar.gz" -mtime +30 -delete
```
