Every deployment file advised setting PB_BOOTSTRAP=false "once the database
is established". That was harmless while the schema was static. It stopped
being harmless in 9bd5c52, which moved the plugin settings into a new
app_settings collection: a stack upgraded with the bootstrap off never gets
that collection, and a missing collection is deliberately read as "the
database is not ready" rather than "no plugins configured" - so the plugin
panel answers 503 indefinitely and the background retry spins forever.
Fixing the advice rather than the reading: treating a missing collection as
empty would let the first save write a fresh document over settings the
server had simply failed to find, which is the failure this whole line of
work exists to prevent.
So all four compose files, all four .env examples, both stack READMEs and
the AIO Dockerfile now say to leave the bootstrap on, including across
upgrades, and name the symptom an operator would otherwise have to guess
at. Turning it off is still supported, but framed as something to do only
for a database known to match the running release.
Compose files still parse as YAML; go build, go vet and go test ./... pass
(untouched by this commit - it is comments and docs only). Note that this
is guidance, not a guard: an operator who sets PB_BOOTSTRAP=false anyway
still ends up in the same place, and the server would have to re-run the
bootstrap when it finds the collection missing to make that impossible.

# DriverVault — Docker AIO (all-in-one image)
|
|
|
|
**PocketBase + API Server + Web App in a single container**, supervised by
|
|
`supervisord` with nginx serving the SPA and proxying `/api/` to the API Server
|
|
on localhost. One image, one volume set, no compose network — the simplest way
|
|
to stand DriverVault up on a single host.
|
|
|
|
Prefer the three-container stack in [`../Docker`](../Docker) when you want to
|
|
scale, upgrade or restart the pieces independently.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
:80 nginx ─► SPA, and /api/ ─► API Server on 127.0.0.1:8080 ─► PocketBase on :8070
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| File | Use |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `Dockerfile` | the all-in-one image (build context must be the **repo root**) |
|
|
| `docker-compose.yml` | **builds from source** — for development and local testing |
|
|
| `docker-compose.prod.yml` | **pulls the prebuilt image** from the registry |
|
|
| `.env.example` / `.env.prod.example` | copy to `.env` for the matching compose file |
|
|
|
|
## Run it
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd "Docker-AIO"
|
|
cp .env.example .env # then edit — PB_ADMIN_* have no safe defaults
|
|
docker compose up -d --build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Production, from the registry:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp .env.prod.example .env # then edit
|
|
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
|
|
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then: web app on `http://host:8090/`, the API Server's superadmin panel on
|
|
`http://host:8080/`, PocketBase admin on `http://host:8070/_/`.
|
|
|
|
Note the port mapping: inside the container the web app is on **80**, published
|
|
as `WEB_PORT` (8090 by default) to line up with the other deployment.
|
|
|
|
## Building by hand
|
|
|
|
The build context **must be the repo root** so the Dockerfile can reach both
|
|
`API Server/` and `Web App/`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker build -f "Docker-AIO/Dockerfile" -t drivervault-aio .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build args: `VITE_API_BASE` (leave empty so the bundle uses same-origin `/api`)
|
|
and `PB_VERSION`, which the Dockerfile already pins. Override it to build a
|
|
different PocketBase; set it to an empty string to resolve the latest release at
|
|
build time instead.
|
|
|
|
## First boot
|
|
|
|
Identical to the multi-container stack, and idempotent:
|
|
|
|
1. PocketBase upserts its superuser from `PB_ADMIN_EMAIL` / `PB_ADMIN_PASSWORD`.
|
|
2. The API Server waits for PocketBase to report healthy, then creates any
|
|
missing collections, reconciles existing ones, and creates the first app
|
|
`superadmin` from `DRIVERVAULT_SUPERADMIN_EMAIL` / `_PASSWORD`.
|
|
|
|
> Leave `PB_BOOTSTRAP` at `true`, including across upgrades. A release can add a
|
|
> collection the server needs — `app_settings`, which holds the plugin settings,
|
|
> is one — and a stack that skipped the bootstrap never gets it. The plugin panel
|
|
> then answers `503` indefinitely, because a missing collection is read as "the
|
|
> database is not ready yet", never as "no plugins configured". Turn it off only
|
|
> for a database you know already matches the release you are running.
|
|
|
|
## Volumes
|
|
|
|
| Volume | Holds |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `/pb/pb_data` | the PocketBase SQLite database and uploaded files |
|
|
| `/data` | the `.env` the API Server panel rewrites when a superadmin retargets the PocketBase connection (plugin settings live in `/pb/pb_data`, with everything else) |
|
|
|
|
Both default to Docker-managed named volumes; set `PB_DATA` / `API_DATA` to
|
|
absolute host paths in the prod file for bind mounts.
|
|
|
|
## Charger control (OCPP)
|
|
|
|
Chargers in own/proxy mode dial in to `/ocpp/{serial}` on the **API Server port
|
|
(8080)** — not through nginx — authenticating with a per-charger control token
|
|
in an OCPP Basic-auth header. Because a plaintext `ws://` would expose that
|
|
token, `OCPP_REQUIRE_TLS` defaults to `true`.
|
|
|
|
This image serves plain HTTP, so charger control needs TLS terminated in front
|
|
of it, with `OCPP_PUBLIC_URL` set to the public `wss://` base. Only drop
|
|
`OCPP_REQUIRE_TLS` on a trusted network.
|
|
|
|
## Caveats
|
|
|
|
- PocketBase and the API Server run as the unprivileged `app` user; only nginx
|
|
stays root, because it binds port 80. A crash of `supervisord` still takes all
|
|
three services down together — that is the trade for the simplicity.
|
|
- Logs from all three processes are interleaved on the container's stdout/stderr
|
|
(`docker logs drivervault-aio`).
|
|
- `PB_VERSION` is pinned in the Dockerfile so two builds of the same source
|
|
agree. Setting it to an empty string restores the old behaviour of resolving
|
|
the latest release **at build time**, which also costs an unauthenticated
|
|
GitHub API call and is subject to that 60/hour per-IP rate limit.
|
|
- The container reports health once all three processes answer their probes, so
|
|
a wedged component shows up in `docker ps` rather than looking up.
