Dockerfile.seaweedfs.split bakes SeaweedFS master, volume, filer, S3
gateway and admin UI into the all-in-one as five more supervisord
programs, with the weed binary copied from the official image and pinned
by SEAWEED_VERSION. The readiness chain the compose split expressed with
depends_on and healthchecks becomes until-wget loops: master, volume,
filer, then the gateway, which seeds the bucket and PocketBase's identity
and refuses to serve if the grep gate fails. The volume server sits on
8081 because 8080 is the API Server; every role except the gateway and
the admin UI binds loopback.

docker-compose.prod.seaweedfs.split.yml goes from six services to one,
with build: and image: both set so the same file builds, pushes and
pulls, under a registry name of its own since this image expects three
volumes. The env example and README follow.

# 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**) |
| `Dockerfile.seaweedfs.split` | the same, with SeaweedFS split into its roles baked in — see below |
| `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
> collections or fields the server needs, and a stack that skipped the bootstrap
> never gets them. The API Server self-heals exactly one thing — `app_settings`,
> the collection holding the plugin settings, which it creates on demand because
> it cannot serve the plugin panel without it. Every other schema change still
> depends on this flag, so 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 — everything that persists |
One volume, because the API Server keeps no state on disk. Plugin enable-state
and global config live in the database like the rest of the settings, so backing
up this one path backs up the whole image. It defaults to a Docker-managed named
volume; set `PB_DATA` to an absolute host path in the prod file for a bind mount.
> One thing does **not** persist: the API Server panel's *Settings → PocketBase*
> and *Settings → Web App* screens apply immediately but only for the life of the
> container. Set the corresponding environment variables to change them
> permanently.
## File storage (SeaweedFS / S3)
Uploaded files — document scans, service and refill receipts, workshop invoices,
part photos — live inside `pb_data` by default, next to the database. Two further
compose files put them in an S3 bucket instead, so the blobs and the database can
be sized, backed up and moved independently. Nothing else changes: an attachment has
always been fetched through the API Server (`GET /api/service-records/{id}/file`),
never from a storage URL, so the Web App, the phone app and the Home Assistant
plugin cannot tell the difference.
Each shape is one self-contained compose file — nothing to layer, nothing to
remember — with an `.env` example of the same name:
| Shape | From the registry | From source |
|---|---|---|
| **Local storage** — the default, unchanged | `docker-compose.prod.yml` | `docker-compose.yml` |
| **SeaweedFS beside the image** | `docker-compose.prod.seaweedfs.yml` | `docker-compose.seaweedfs.yml` |
| **SeaweedFS, split into its roles** | `docker-compose.prod.seaweedfs.split.yml` (builds `Dockerfile.seaweedfs.split`) | `docker-compose.seaweedfs.split.yml` |
| **An S3 endpoint elsewhere** | `docker-compose.prod.s3.yml` | `docker-compose.s3.yml` |
So `docker-compose.prod.seaweedfs.yml` is configured from
`.env.prod.seaweedfs.example`, `docker-compose.s3.yml` from `.env.s3.example`,
and so on:
```sh
cp .env.prod.seaweedfs.example .env # then edit it — PB_S3_* have no defaults
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.seaweedfs.yml pull
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.seaweedfs.yml up -d
```
Set `PB_S3_ACCESS_KEY` and `PB_S3_SECRET` first — both storage files refuse to
start without them. The SeaweedFS ones run the gateway as a **second container**
(master, volume, filer and S3 in one process, on its own `seaweed_data` volume)
rather than a fourth process under supervisord: keeping the object store in this
image, on the volume the files are being moved off, would defeat the point and
would mean rebuilding. They also run a one-shot `seaweedfs-init` that creates the
bucket, because PocketBase never issues a `CreateBucket` of its own. The
external-S3 ones add no containers at all: set `PB_S3_ENDPOINT`, and create the
bucket yourself.
### Split SeaweedFS
`weed server -s3` runs master, volume, filer and gateway as four goroutines in
one process. `docker-compose.seaweedfs.split.yml` runs them as four containers
beside the all-in-one, plus a fifth: the SeaweedFS **admin UI** on port 23646,
where the cluster can be inspected and — under *Object Store → Users* — further
S3 identities minted and revoked. Split also gets you per-role restarts and
upgrades, per-role Prometheus metrics, and room to add a second volume server
later.
The prod twin goes the other way: `docker-compose.prod.seaweedfs.split.yml`
**builds `Dockerfile.seaweedfs.split`**, which bakes all five roles into the
all-in-one image as five more supervisord programs (the `weed` binary is copied
from the official image, pinned by the `SEAWEED_VERSION` build arg). One
container, three volumes (`PB_DATA`, `SEAWEED_DATA`, `SEAWEED_ADMIN_DATA`), and
the bucket-and-identity seed runs inside the gateway's program instead of a
`seaweedfs-init` container. What survives of "split" in there is per-role
restart, per-role metrics ports and the admin UI; what does not is upgrading
SeaweedFS by changing a tag — it is a rebuild — and spreading the roles over
hosts. Inside, every role listens on loopback (the volume server on **8081**,
since 8080 is the API Server), and only the gateway and the admin UI are
published, on loopback by default. The build needs the repo checkout, so either
build on the deploy host or `docker compose push` the image to `AIO_IMAGE` and
`pull` it there.
Identities work differently there, and it matters. SeaweedFS reads credentials
from, in descending priority: an `-s3.config` file, the filer's IAM store, then
`AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` — and a higher source *replaces* a
lower one rather than adding to it. The single-gateway files use the env vars,
which is why nothing else may write identities there: the first user added in a
panel would displace PocketBase's key. So in the split files `seaweedfs-init`
seeds PocketBase's identity into the filer's store instead — the same store the
admin UI writes — and the gateway runs with no config file at all. One source of
truth, PocketBase's key visible in the panel beside every other, and new keys
picked up without a restart. Rotating `PB_S3_SECRET` in `.env` and restarting
updates that identity in place.
Set `SEAWEED_ADMIN_PASSWORD`: `weed admin` serves the panel with no
authentication when it is empty, and a panel that can mint bucket credentials is
the bucket (the baked-in image refuses to start the panel at all without one).
In the prod file it is bound to loopback like `SEAWEED_S3_BIND` — it is storage
plumbing, not one of the app's own panels — so a remote host needs
`SEAWEED_ADMIN_BIND=0.0.0.0` behind a reverse proxy. Neither file publishes
anything for master, volume and filer: the volume server serves file content by
id with no authentication of any kind, and the admin UI already shows what those
ports would.
Switching between any of the SeaweedFS files needs no migration: master, volume
and filer share one data mount (`/data` in the side containers, `/seaweed/data`
in the baked-in image), which is exactly the layout `weed server -dir` writes.
On every boot the API Server's bootstrap writes PocketBase's *Files storage*
settings from those variables, then asks PocketBase to prove it can reach the
bucket. Watch for it in the log:
```
[api] bootstrap: ✓ file storage → S3 (drivervault at http://seaweedfs:8333)
[api] bootstrap: ✓ S3 storage reachable
```
A boot that finds the settings already correct logs `• file storage already on S3`
and writes nothing.
Two things to know before turning it on:
- **Existing files are not migrated.** PocketBase copies nothing when the setting
flips, so attachments uploaded before the switch stop resolving. Copy
`pb_data/storage/<collectionId>/<recordId>/<file>` into the bucket root, keeping
that layout, *before* enabling it — or start from a stack with no attachments.
- **Going back to the plain compose file is not an off switch.** It leaves
PocketBase pointed at
the bucket, deliberately: files already written there are reachable only while
it is. Move them back and turn it off in PocketBase's own admin UI. For the same
reason a rotation of `PB_S3_SECRET` alone is invisible to the bootstrap —
PocketBase masks the stored secret on read — so change another `PB_S3_*` value
alongside it, or set it in the admin UI.
## 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.
