Login to https://www.stackcp.com/client/ 2. Go to Node.js Manager → Create Application 3. Start file: `/tmp/navidocs/server/index.js` 4. Port: 8001 5. Environment: Load from `~/navidocs-data/.env` 6. Click Create **Option B: systemd Service** (if you have SSH access) ```bash ssh stackcp "systemctl --user restart navidocs.service" ``` ### Step 4: Verify Everything Works ```bash # Check server is running ssh stackcp "curl -s http://localhost:8001/health | jq ." # Check frontend loads # Visit: https://digital-lab.ca/navidocs/ # Check database ssh stackcp "sqlite3 ~/navidocs-data/db/navidocs.db 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM documents;'" ``` --- ## Key Endpoints ### Backend API (Internal, StackCP only) ``` http://localhost:8001/api/ GET /health ← Health check POST /auth/register ← Create account POST /auth/login ← Login (returns JWT token) GET /auth/me ← Current user info POST /upload ← Upload document GET /documents ← List documents POST /search ← Full-text search GET /organizations/:id/timeline ← Activity timeline ``` ### Frontend (Public, Web-served) ``` https://digital-lab.ca/navidocs/ ← Main UI ├─ / ← Home page ├─ /upload ← Upload documents ├─ /search ← Search interface └─ /timeline ← View activity history ``` --- ## Environment Variables All pre-configured in `~/navidocs-data/.env`: ```bash # Server PORT=8001 NODE_ENV=production # Database (SQLite on StackCP) DATABASE_PATH=~/navidocs-data/db/navidocs.db # Search Engine (Already running on StackCP) MEILISEARCH_HOST=http://127.0.0.1:7700 MEILISEARCH_MASTER_KEY=[auto-generated] MEILISEARCH_INDEX_NAME=navidocs-pages # Authentication JWT_SECRET=[auto-generated - 64 hex chars] JWT_EXPIRES_IN=15m # File Upload MAX_FILE_SIZE=50000000 (50 MB) UPLOAD_DIR=~/navidocs-data/uploads ALLOWED_MIME_TYPES=application/pdf # OCR Settings OCR_WORKER_URL=https://fr-antibes.duckdns.org/naviocr OCR_LANGUAGE=eng OCR_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD=0.7 ``` --- ## Troubleshooting Quick Fixes | Problem | Solution | |---------|----------| | "Node not executable" | `ssh stackcp "chmod +x /tmp/node"` | | "npm not found" | Use `source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh && npm` | | "Port 8001 in use" | Kill zombie: `ssh stackcp "pkill node"` | | "Database locked" | `ssh stackcp "pkill -9 node && rm *.db-shm"` | | "npm install fails" | Check disk space: `ssh stackcp "df -h"` | | "Out of disk" | Archive uploads: `ssh stackcp "find ~/navidocs-data/uploads -mtime +90 -delete"` | | "Logs too large" | Rotate: `ssh stackcp "gzip ~/navidocs-data/logs/app.log"` | --- ## Monitoring Commands ### Daily Health Check ```bash ssh stackcp << 'EOF' echo "=== Status ===" && \ systemctl --user status navidocs.service && \ echo "" && \ echo "=== Disk ===" && \ du -sh ~/navidocs-data/ && \ echo "" && \ echo "=== Errors ===" && \ grep ERROR ~/navidocs-data/logs/app.log | tail -5 || echo "No errors" EOF ``` ### View Real-Time Logs ```bash ssh stackcp "tail -f ~/navidocs-data/logs/app.log" ``` ### Database Stats ```bash ssh stackcp << 'EOF' sqlite3 ~/navidocs-data/db/navidocs.db << 'SQLEOF' SELECT 'Documents', COUNT(*) FROM documents UNION ALL SELECT 'Activity Events', COUNT(*) FROM activity_log UNION ALL SELECT 'Users', COUNT(*) FROM users; SQLEOF EOF ``` --- ## Post-Deployment Checklist - [ ] Frontend loads at https://digital-lab.ca/navidocs/ - [ ] Can create account and login - [ ] Can upload a test PDF - [ ] OCR processes the PDF - [ ] Can search for content in the PDF - [ ] Timeline shows upload event - [ ] No errors in logs: `grep ERROR ~/navidocs-data/logs/app.log | wc -l` - [ ] Database file exists and has data - [ ] Disk usage < 400 MB: `du -sh ~/navidocs-data/` --- ## If Something Goes Wrong ### Scenario 1: Application Won't Start ```bash # Step 1: Check what's wrong ssh stackcp "/tmp/node /tmp/navidocs/server/index.js 2>&1 | head -50" # Step 2: Verify prerequisites ssh stackcp "ls -la /tmp/node /tmp/navidocs/server/index.js ~/navidocs-data/.env ~/navidocs-data/db/" # Step 3: Re-initialize database ssh stackcp "rm ~/navidocs-data/db/navidocs.db && /tmp/node /tmp/navidocs/server/db/init.js" # Step 4: Try again ssh stackcp "systemctl --user restart navidocs.service" ``` ### Scenario 2: Database Corrupted ```bash # Restore from backup (if available) ssh stackcp "cp ~/backups/navidocs-20251113.db ~/navidocs-data/db/navidocs.db" # Or reinitialize ssh stackcp "rm ~/navidocs-data/db/navidocs.db && /tmp/node /tmp/navidocs/server/db/init.js" ``` ### Scenario 3: Ran Out of Disk Space ```bash # Check what's using space ssh stackcp "du -sh ~/navidocs-data/*" # Clean old uploads ssh stackcp "find ~/navidocs-data/uploads -mtime +30 -delete" # Compress old logs ssh stackcp "gzip ~/navidocs-data/logs/*.log.1 ~/navidocs-data/logs/*.log.2" # Check again ssh stackcp "du -sh ~/navidocs-data/" ``` --- ## Success Metrics After deployment, you should see: ✅ **Frontend**: Loads instantly, responsive UI ✅ **Login**: Creates user, authenticates with JWT ✅ **Upload**: Accepts PDF, shows progress ✅ **OCR**: Extracts text in <5s (smart OCR working) ✅ **Search**: Returns results in <10ms ✅ **Timeline**: Shows activity events ✅ **Performance**: No lag, smooth interactions ✅ **Logs**: Only expected INFO messages, no ERRORs --- ## Next Steps After Deployment 1. **User Testing**: Have team members test core workflows 2. **Performance Tuning**: Monitor load, adjust rate limits if needed 3. **Backup Strategy**: Setup automated daily backups 4. **Monitoring**: Configure alerts for errors and uptime 5. **SSL Certificate**: Ensure HTTPS is valid (StackCP handles this) 6. **Documentation**: Create user guide for boat documentation workflow 7. **Training**: Show users how to upload and search documents --- ## Files You Have | File | Purpose | |------|---------| | `STACKCP_DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md` | This comprehensive guide (90 sections) | | `STACKCP_QUICK_COMMANDS.sh` | Copy-paste command reference (50+ commands) | | `deploy-stackcp.sh` | Automated deployment script (ready to run) | | `STACKCP_ENVIRONMENT_REPORT.md` | Pre-deployment verification checklist | | `STACKCP_ARCHITECTURE_ANALYSIS.md` | Deep technical analysis and constraints | | `docs/DEVELOPER.md` | Developer reference for architecture | --- ## SSH Quick Reference ```bash # Configure SSH (one time) # Add to ~/.ssh/config: Host stackcp HostName ssh.gb.stackcp.com User digital-lab.ca IdentityFile ~/.ssh/icw_stackcp_ed25519 IdentitiesOnly yes # Then use: ssh stackcp # Connect ssh stackcp "cmd" # Run command scp file stackcp:~ # Copy file ``` --- ## Support Resources If you get stuck: 1. **Common Issues**: See "Troubleshooting Quick Fixes" table above 2. **Architecture Questions**: Read `STACKCP_ARCHITECTURE_ANALYSIS.md` 3. **Development**: Read `docs/DEVELOPER.md` 4. **API Endpoints**: Check `server/routes/*.js` 5. **Logs**: `ssh stackcp "tail -100 ~/navidocs-data/logs/app.log"` --- ## Summary You're ready to deploy the complete NaviDocs application to StackCP. The deployment script automates 80% of the work. The most complex parts (OCR, PDF text extraction, multi-format handling) are all built in and tested. **Estimated time to production**: 30-45 minutes **Risk level**: Low (StackCP is pre-configured, script is tested) **Rollback**: < 5 minutes (restore from git or backup) **Ready to deploy?** Run this: ```bash cd /home/setup/navidocs && chmod +x deploy-stackcp.sh && ./deploy-stackcp.sh production ``` Good luck! 🚀
