# Deployment
## Local
Copy `.env.example` to `.env`, add `127.0.0.1 azionelab.org` to the hosts file, then:
```bash
docker compose up --build -d
docker compose --profile tools run --rm wp-cli /scripts/bootstrap.sh
```
NGINX binds to loopback ports 8080/8443. WordPress and MariaDB remain private. The
bootstrap is safe to rerun and does not duplicate demo records.
The default persistent paths are host-based bind mounts under `./runtime`. Before the
first start, run:
```bash
./scripts/prepare-host-volumes.sh
```
The script reads `.env`, creates the configured paths, and applies the expected
container ownership. For Linux hosts this avoids the common problem where Docker
creates missing bind-mount directories as `root:root` and WordPress or MariaDB later
cannot write to them. If a platform uses different image UIDs/GIDs, override
`MARIADB_VOLUME_UID/GID`, `WORDPRESS_VOLUME_UID/GID`, or `CERTBOT_VOLUME_UID/GID`.
## Production
Required controls:
- `WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE=production`;
- unique non-placeholder MariaDB passwords of at least 16 characters;
- `WORDPRESS_DEBUG=0` and a strong administrator password;
- an HTTPS `WP_URL`;
- managed secrets outside the Compose file;
- either direct Let's Encrypt termination or a trusted external load balancer;
- off-host database/file backups and monitoring.
When a load balancer terminates TLS, Certbot stays disabled. `TRUST_PROXY_HEADERS=1`
is safe only when firewall/network policy makes the load balancer the sole NGINX
caller and it overwrites `X-Forwarded-*` headers.
For direct TLS, public DNS and inbound ports 80/443 must reach NGINX. Start with
`LETSENCRYPT_STAGING=1`; application HTTP returns 503 until a certificate exists, then
redirects to HTTPS. Switch to the production CA only after validating DNS and firewall
behavior, removing only the staging certificate volume when necessary.
## State and rollback
Database and WordPress file directories must be backed up together. Code rollback is a
container rebuild from a prior commit and does not require deleting host data
directories. Never delete the paths configured by `DB_DATA_PATH`, `WORDPRESS_DATA_PATH`,
or `LETSENCRYPT_DATA_PATH` where content/certificates must survive. Test database
restoration in a disposable environment before any production restore.
