**static/css/dist/**: Generated CSS output + +### Key Architectural Decisions + +#### Authentication & User Management +- **Custom User Model**: `apps.accounts.User` extends AbstractUser with email as username field +- **Email-based Authentication**: Users authenticate with email instead of username +- **Role-based Access Control**: Uses Django groups (admin, staff, user) with custom methods: + - `user.has_role(role_name)` - Check user role + - `user.assign_role(role_name)` - Assign role to user + - `@admin_required` and `@staff_required` decorators for views + - `AdminRequiredMixin` and `StaffRequiredMixin` for class-based views +- **Django Allauth Integration**: Handles registration, email verification, password reset, and social authentication + +#### Database Configuration +- **Flexible Database Setup**: Supports both individual environment variables and DATABASE_URL +- **External Database Support**: Ready for services like Neon, Supabase, Railway +- **SSL Support**: Configurable SSL mode for secure connections + +#### Frontend & Styling +- **Tailwind CSS Integration**: Uses django-tailwind for seamless CSS development +- **Hot Reloading**: CSS automatically rebuilds during development +- **Production Optimization**: Compressed and minified CSS for production builds + +#### Docker & Deployment +- **Multi-stage Dockerfile**: Separate development and production builds +- **Development Setup**: Docker Compose with PostgreSQL, Redis, hot reloading +- **Production Ready**: Gunicorn, Nginx, SSL support, security best practices + +### Custom Management Commands +Located in `apps/accounts/management/commands/`: +- `create_groups`: Creates default user groups with appropriate permissions +- `create_superuser`: Creates admin user with default credentials +- `setup_social_apps`: Configures social authentication providers + +### Settings Architecture +- **base.py**: Common settings for all environments +- **development.py**: Development-specific settings (DEBUG=True, console email backend) +- **production.py**: Production settings (security, performance optimizations) +- **Environment Variables**: All sensitive data configured via .env files + +## Development Guidelines + +### Adding New Features +1. Create new Django app: `docker-compose exec web python manage.py startapp feature_name` +2. Add to `INSTALLED_APPS` in `django_project/settings/base.py` as `apps.feature_name` +3. Create models, views, templates following existing patterns +4. Use role-based decorators/mixins for access control +5. Add URL patterns to both app-level and project-level URLs + +### Database Migrations +- Always create migrations after model changes: `python manage.py makemigrations` +- Review migration files before applying +- Test migrations on copy of production data when possible + +### Role-Based Access Control +- Use `@login_required` decorator for authenticated views +- Use `@admin_required` or `@staff_required` for role-specific views +- In templates, use `{% if user.has_role:'admin' %}` for conditional content +- For class-based views, inherit from `AdminRequiredMixin` or `StaffRequiredMixin` + +### Tailwind CSS Development +- Edit templates with Tailwind utility classes +- Custom CSS goes in `theme/static_src/src/styles.css` +- Run `python manage.py tailwind start` for development with hot reloading +- Build for production with `python manage.py tailwind build` + +### Environment Configuration +- Development: Copy `.env.example` to `.env` +- Production: Use strong SECRET_KEY, set DEBUG=False, configure email settings +- Database: Use DATABASE_URL for external services or individual DB_* variables for Docker + +### Security Considerations +- Custom User model stores email as primary identifier +- Email verification required for account activation +- Login attempt limiting (5 attempts, 300s timeout) +- SSL support for external database connections +- CSRF and clickjacking protection enabled +- WhiteNoise for secure static file serving + +### Social Authentication Setup +- Google OAuth: Configure in Google Cloud Console, set GOOGLE_OAUTH2_CLIENT_ID and GOOGLE_OAUTH2_CLIENT_SECRET +- Add more providers by extending SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS in settings +- Use `python manage.py setup_social_apps` to configure in Django admin + +## URLs & Endpoints +- **Home**: `/` - Main landing page +- **Authentication**: `/accounts/` - Login, registration, email verification (django-allauth) +- **Admin**: `/admin/` - Django admin interface +- **API**: Ready for Django REST Framework integration + +## Common Issues & Solutions + +### CSS Not Loading +- Ensure Tailwind development server is running: `python manage.py tailwind start` +- Check that `theme` app is in INSTALLED_APPS +- Verify static files configuration + +### Database Connection Issues +- For external databases, ensure SSL mode is correct (require/prefer) +- Check DATABASE_URL format for external services +- Verify PostgreSQL service is running in Docker + +### Email Configuration +- Development: Uses console backend by default +- Production: Configure SMTP settings in environment variables +- Test email functionality with password reset flow + +### Role Assignment +- Use management command: `python manage.py create_groups` +- Assign roles programmatically: `user.assign_role('admin')` +- Check roles in templates: `user.has_role:'staff'` + +### Dokploy Deployment Issues +- **Static Files Permission Error**: If you see "Permission denied" errors during `collectstatic`: + - This occurs when Docker volumes have different ownership than the container user + - The project includes multiple fallback mechanisms in the entrypoint script + - Static files are collected during Docker build as a backup + - If collectstatic fails at runtime, the application will use build-time static files +- **Build Settings**: The project includes `django_project/settings/build.py` for static collection during Docker build +- **Volume Permissions**: Dokploy mounts volumes that may have host-system ownership diff --git a/django_project/settings/build.py b/django_project/settings/build.py new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6952b09 --- /dev/null +++ b/django_project/settings/build.py @@ -0,0 +1,42 @@ +""" +Minimal settings for Docker build process (static file collection) +This file contains only the necessary settings for collectstatic to work during build. +""" +import os +from pathlib import Path + +BASE_DIR = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent.parent + +# Security settings (minimal for build) +SECRET_KEY = 'build-time-secret-key-not-for-production' +DEBUG = False +ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['*'] + +# Static files settings (primary purpose of this file) +STATIC_URL = '/static/' +STATIC_ROOT = BASE_DIR / 'staticfiles' +STATICFILES_DIRS = [BASE_DIR / 'static'] +STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage' + +# Minimal required apps for static file collection +INSTALLED_APPS = [ + 'django.contrib.staticfiles', + 'tailwind', + 'theme', # Our Tailwind theme app +] + +# Tailwind CSS Configuration +TAILWIND_APP_NAME = 'theme' + +# Minimal database config (not used but required by Django) +DATABASES = { + 'default': { + 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', + 'NAME': ':memory:', + } +} + +# Disable middleware and other unnecessary components for build +MIDDLEWARE = [] +ROOT_URLCONF = None +USE_TZ = True diff --git a/docker-compose.dokploy.yml b/docker-compose.dokploy.yml index 580257a..1cf1000 100644 --- a/docker-compose.dokploy.yml +++ b/docker-compose.dokploy.yml @@ -3,6 +3,8 @@ services: build: context: . target: production + args: + -
