deployment

# first set up environment variables for infra (1) and each app (2)
# 1. Create `terraform.tfvars` in `infra` according to `terraform.tfvars.example`
# 2. Create `.env` files in each app folder according to each `.env.example`

# provision infra - see infra/README.md for more details
cd infra
terraform init && terraform plan
terraform apply
cd ..

# configure server and start services
./deploy.sh

troubleshooting

# stop all services
ssh m4sdev 'docker stop $(docker ps -q)'

# clean all docker containers, images and volumes
ssh m4sdev 'docker rm $(docker ps -aq); docker rmi $(docker images -q); docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)'

# clean home folder
ssh m4sdev "rm -rf /home/*"

adding a service

1. Create a folder with a docker-compose.yaml file
2. Add it to the deploy script
3. (optional) to expose it publicly
   1. Create a DNS record for a subdomain on Cloudflare
   2. Add the network to NGINX's nginx/docker-compose.yaml
   3. Add the proxy configuration on nginx/default.conf.template
