SSL/TLS Configuration #### Option A: Let's Encrypt with Certbot ```bash sudo apt-get install certbot python3-certbot-nginx sudo certbot --nginx -d yourdomain.com -d api.yourdomain.com ``` #### Option B: Reverse Proxy (Recommended) - [ ] nginx or Traefik configured - [ ] SSL certificates obtained - [ ] Frontend proxied from port 3000 - [ ] Backend API proxied from port 8000 - [ ] CORS headers properly configured ### 4. Security Hardening - [ ] Firewall configured (UFW or iptables) - [ ] Only necessary ports open (80, 443, 22) - [ ] SSH key-based authentication - [ ] Fail2ban installed for brute force protection - [ ] Docker containers running as non-root users - [ ] Secrets not committed to version control - [ ] Regular security updates enabled ## 📦 Deployment Steps ### Step 1: Clone Repository ```bash # On production server cd /opt sudo git clone https://github.com/christianlouis/inboxconverge.git cd inboxconverge ``` ### Step 2: Configure Environment ```bash # Backend cd backend cp .env.example .env nano .env # Edit with production values # Frontend cd ../frontend echo "NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=https://api.yourdomain.com" > .env.local ``` ### Step 3: Build and Start Services ```bash cd .. docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml build docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml up -d ``` ### Step 4: Initialize Database ```bash # Run migrations docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml exec backend alembic upgrade head # Verify docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml exec backend alembic current ``` ### Step 5: Verify Services ```bash # Check all services are running docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml ps # Check logs docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml logs -f ``` ### Step 6: Test Application ```bash # Test backend API curl https://api.yourdomain.com/health # Test frontend curl https://yourdomain.com # Register test user curl -X POST https://api.yourdomain.com/api/v1/auth/register \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"email":"test@example.com","password":"testpass123","full_name":"Test User"}' ``` ### Step 7: Configure Monitoring #### Health Checks ```bash # Add to crontab for monitoring */5 * * * * curl -f https://yourdomain.com/health || mail -s "Site Down" admin@yourdomain.com ``` #### Log Rotation ```bash # Configure Docker log rotation in /etc/docker/daemon.json { "log-driver": "json-file", "log-opts": { "max-size": "10m", "max-file": "3" } } ``` ## 🔄 Maintenance ### Regular Tasks #### Daily - [ ] Monitor error logs - [ ] Check Celery worker status - [ ] Verify email processing is working #### Weekly - [ ] Review database size and performance - [ ] Check for security updates - [ ] Rotate logs if necessary #### Monthly - [ ] Database backup verification - [ ] Review user feedback and errors - [ ] Update dependencies if needed ### Backup Strategy #### Database Backups ```bash # Automated daily backup script cat > /usr/local/bin/backup-pop3-db.sh << 'EOF' #!/bin/bash BACKUP_DIR=/var/backups/inbox_converge DATE=$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S) docker exec inboxconverge-postgres pg_dump -U postgres inbox_converge | gzip > $BACKUP_DIR/backup_$DATE.sql.gz find $BACKUP_DIR -type f -mtime +30 -delete EOF chmod +x /usr/local/bin/backup-pop3-db.sh # Add to crontab 0 2 * * * /usr/local/bin/backup-pop3-db.sh ``` ## 🐛 Troubleshooting ### Common Issues #### Frontend Cannot Connect to Backend **Symptoms**: CORS errors, network errors **Solutions**: 1. Verify `CORS_ORIGINS` includes frontend URL 2. Check backend is accessible from frontend container 3. Verify API URL in frontend .env.local #### Database Connection Errors **Symptoms**: "Connection refused" or timeout errors **Solutions**: 1. Check PostgreSQL is running 2. Verify DATABASE_URL is correct 3. Check network connectivity 4. Review PostgreSQL logs #### Celery Workers Not Processing **Symptoms**: Emails not being forwarded **Solutions**: 1. Check Redis is running 2. Review celery-worker logs 3. Verify CELERY_BROKER_URL is correct 4. Restart celery-worker container #### OAuth Not Working **Symptoms**: "Invalid redirect URI" or OAuth errors **Solutions**: 1. Verify GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI matches exactly 2. Check OAuth credentials in Google Console 3. Ensure HTTPS is used in production ### Log Locations ```bash # Backend logs docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml logs backend # Frontend logs docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml logs frontend # Celery worker logs docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml logs celery-worker # Database logs docker-compose -f docker-compose.new.yml logs postgres ``` ## 📊 Monitoring & Observability ### Recommended Tools #### Application Monitoring - **Uptime Monitoring**: UptimeRobot, Pingdom - **Error Tracking**: Sentry (can be added to backend) - **Performance**: New Relic, DataDog #### Infrastructure Monitoring - **Container Health**: Docker healthchecks - **Resource Usage**: cAdvisor + Prometheus + Grafana - **Log Aggregation**: ELK Stack or Loki ### Metrics to Monitor - [ ] API response times - [ ] Error rates - [ ] Email processing throughput - [ ] Database connection pool usage - [ ] Redis memory usage - [ ] Disk space utilization - [ ] Container CPU/Memory usage ## 🔐 Security Considerations ### Ongoing Security Tasks - [ ] Regular dependency updates ```bash # Backend cd backend pip list --outdated # Frontend cd frontend npm outdated ``` - [ ] Monitor for security advisories - GitHub Dependabot alerts - CVE databases - Security mailing lists - [ ] Regular security audits - Code review - Penetration testing - Vulnerability scanning - [ ] Access control review - User permissions - API access logs - Failed login attempts ## 🚀 Next Steps and Enhancements ### Immediate (Week 1) 1.
