tajniak81andClaude Opus 5 f08849e50c Docker: a build context that isn't 3.6GB, and health you can see

The all-in-one image builds from the project root, and Docker only reads
.dockerignore from the context root — so the ones under "API Server" and
"Web App" never applied to it and every AIO build shipped the whole tree,
"Phone App/build" included. A root .dockerignore allow-lists the paths that
build actually copies.

The dev split stack passed neither PB_BOOTSTRAP nor the SUPERADMIN vars, so
it created the schema and then no user to log in with. It passes them now,
and .env.example says so.

WEBAPP_URL was never set anywhere, leaving the panel status page probing
localhost:8090 — itself — and always reporting the Web App as down. Each
compose file now points it at wherever the Web App really is, and the BFF
grew a real /healthz instead of letting the SPA fallback answer probes with
index.html and look healthy no matter what.

In the AIO, PocketBase and the API Server drop to an unprivileged user;
only nginx stays root to bind :80. The entrypoint takes ownership of the
two volumes first, so data written by the old root-only image stays
writable. All three images carry a HEALTHCHECK, every compose file declares
one too (so depends_on still gates against an older pulled image), and
web-app waits for the API Server to be serving rather than merely started.

Also: pinned alpine/golang/node and PocketBase 0.39.11, so a rebuild months
from now produces the same image; nginx forwards WebSocket upgrades instead
of stripping them, with the map in http.d where Alpine actually reads it;
and a .gitattributes keeps entrypoint.sh on LF, because a CRLF shebang from
a Windows clone fails at container start with "no such file or directory".

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 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

cd "Docker-AIO"
cp .env.example .env        # then edit — PB_ADMIN_* have no safe defaults
docker compose up -d --build

Production, from the registry:

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/:

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:

PocketBase upserts its superuser from PB_ADMIN_EMAIL / PB_ADMIN_PASSWORD.
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. Set PB_BOOTSTRAP=false to skip once the database is established.

Volumes

Volume	Holds
`/pb/pb_data`	the PocketBase SQLite database and uploaded files
`/data`	the API Server's `plugins.json`, and the `.env` the panel rewrites when a superadmin retargets the PocketBase connection

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.
