# ThrillWiki Deployment Guide

This document outlines deployment strategies, build processes, and infrastructure considerations for the ThrillWiki Django + HTMX application.

## Architecture Overview

ThrillWiki is a **Django monolith** with HTMX for dynamic interactivity. There is no separate frontend build process - templates and static assets are served directly by Django.

    end
```

## Development Environment

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.13+ with UV package manager
- PostgreSQL 14+ with PostGIS extension
- Redis 6+ (for caching and sessions)

### Local Development Setup

```bash
# Clone repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd thrillwiki

# Install dependencies
cd backend
uv sync --frozen

# Configure environment
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your settings

# Database setup
uv run manage.py migrate
uv run manage.py collectstatic --noinput

# Start development server
uv run manage.py runserver
```

## Build Strategies

### 1. Containerized Deployment (Recommended)

#### Multi-stage Dockerfile

```dockerfile
# backend/Dockerfile
FROM python:3.13-slim as builder

WORKDIR /app

# Install system dependencies for GeoDjango
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    binutils libproj-dev gdal-bin libgdal-dev \
    libpq-dev gcc \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

# Install UV
RUN pip install uv

# Copy dependency files
COPY pyproject.toml uv.lock ./

# Install dependencies
RUN uv sync --frozen --no-dev

FROM python:3.13-slim as runtime

WORKDIR /app

# Install runtime dependencies for GeoDjango
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    libpq5 gdal-bin libgdal32 libgeos-c1v5 libproj25 \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

# Copy virtual environment from builder
COPY --from=builder /app/.venv /app/.venv
ENV PATH="/app/.venv/bin:$PATH"

# Copy application code
COPY . .

# Collect static files
RUN python manage.py collectstatic --noinput

# Create logs directory
RUN mkdir -p logs

EXPOSE 8000

# Run with gunicorn
CMD ["gunicorn", "config.wsgi:application", "--bind", "0.0.0.0:8000", "--workers", "4"]
```

#### Docker Compose for Development

```yaml
# docker-compose.dev.yml

## Environment Configuration

### Required Environment Variables

```bash
# Django Settings
DEBUG=0
SECRET_KEY=your-production-secret-key
ALLOWED_HOSTS=yourdomain.com,www.yourdomain.com
CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=https://yourdomain.com,https://www.yourdomain.com
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=config.django.production

# Database
DATABASE_URL=postgis://user:password@host:port/database

# Redis
REDIS_URL=redis://host:port/0

# Email
EMAIL_BACKEND=django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend
EMAIL_HOST=smtp.yourmailprovider.com
EMAIL_PORT=587
EMAIL_USE_TLS=True
EMAIL_HOST_USER=your-email@yourdomain.com
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD=your-email-password

# Cloudflare Images
CLOUDFLARE_IMAGES_ACCOUNT_ID=your-account-id
CLOUDFLARE_IMAGES_API_TOKEN=your-api-token
CLOUDFLARE_IMAGES_ACCOUNT_HASH=your-account-hash

# Sentry (optional)
SENTRY_DSN=your-sentry-dsn
SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT=production
```

## Performance Optimization

### Database Optimization

```python
# backend/config/django/production.py
DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.contrib.gis.db.backends.postgis',
        'CONN_MAX_AGE': 60,  # Keep connections alive for 60 seconds
        'OPTIONS': {
            'connect_timeout': 10,
            'options': '-c statement_timeout=30000',  # 30 second query timeout
        }
    }
}
```

### Redis Caching

```python
# Caching configuration is in config/django/production.py
# Multiple cache backends for different purposes:
# - default: General caching
# - sessions: Session storage
# - api: API response caching
```

### Static Files with WhiteNoise

```python
# backend/config/django/production.py
STATICFILES_STORAGE = "whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage"
```

## Monitoring and Logging

### Health Check Endpoints

| Endpoint | Purpose | Use Case |
|----------|---------|----------|
| `/api/v1/health/` | Comprehensive health check | Monitoring dashboards |
| `/api/v1/health/simple/` | Simple OK/ERROR | Load balancer health checks |
| `/api/v1/health/performance/` | Performance metrics | Debug mode only |

### Logging Configuration

Production logging uses JSON format for log aggregation:

```python
# backend/config/django/production.py
LOGGING = {
    'handlers': {
        'console': {
            'class': 'logging.StreamHandler',
            'formatter': 'json',
        },
        'file': {
            'class': 'logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': 'logs/django.log',
            'maxBytes': 1024 * 1024 * 15,  # 15MB
            'backupCount': 10,
            'formatter': 'json',
        },
    },
}
```

### Sentry Integration

```python
# Sentry is configured in config/django/production.py
# Enable by setting SENTRY_DSN environment variable
```

## Security Considerations

### Production Security Checklist

- [ ] `DEBUG=False` in production
- [ ] `SECRET_KEY` is unique and secure
- [ ] `ALLOWED_HOSTS` properly configured
- [ ] HTTPS enforced with SSL certificates
- [ ] Security headers configured (HSTS, CSP, etc.)
- [ ] Database credentials secured
- [ ] Redis password configured (if exposed)
- [ ] CORS properly configured
- [ ] Rate limiting enabled
- [ ] File upload validation
- [ ] SQL injection protection (Django ORM)
- [ ] XSS protection enabled
- [ ] CSRF protection active

### Security Headers

```python
# backend/config/django/production.py
SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT = True
SECURE_HSTS_SECONDS = 31536000  # 1 year
SECURE_HSTS_INCLUDE_SUBDOMAINS = True
SECURE_HSTS_PRELOAD = True
SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True
CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = True
X_FRAME_OPTIONS = 'DENY'
SECURE_CONTENT_TYPE_NOSNIFF = True
```

## Backup and Recovery

### Database Backup Strategy

```bash
#!/bin/bash
# Automated backup script
pg_dump $DATABASE_URL | gzip > backup_$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S).sql.gz
aws s3 cp backup_*.sql.gz s3://your-backup-bucket/database/
```

### Media Files Backup

```bash
# Sync media files to S3
aws s3 sync ./shared/media/ s3://your-media-bucket/media/ --delete
```

## Scaling Strategies

### Horizontal Scaling

- Use load balancer (nginx, AWS ALB, etc.)
- Database read replicas for read-heavy workloads
- CDN for static assets (Cloudflare, CloudFront)
- Redis cluster for session/cache scaling
- Multiple Gunicorn workers per container

### Vertical Scaling

- Database connection pooling (pgBouncer)
- Query optimization with select_related/prefetch_related
- Memory usage optimization
- Background task offloading to Celery

## Troubleshooting Guide

### Common Issues

1. **Static files not loading**
   - Run `python manage.py collectstatic`
   - Check nginx static file configuration
   - Verify WhiteNoise settings

2. **Database connection errors**
   - Verify DATABASE_URL format
   - Check firewall rules
   - Verify PostGIS extension is installed

3. **CORS errors**
   - Check CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS setting
   - Verify CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS

4. **Memory issues**
   - Monitor with `docker stats`
   - Optimize Gunicorn worker count
   - Check for query inefficiencies

### Debug Commands

```bash
# Check Django configuration
cd backend
uv run manage.py check --deploy

# Database shell
uv run manage.py dbshell

# Django shell
uv run manage.py shell

# Validate settings
uv run manage.py validate_settings
```
