# Deployment Guide

## Production Deployment Status ✅

The automated deployment pipeline is now configured and ready!

### Deployment Secrets Configured:
- ✅ `PROD_HOST` - Production server address
- ✅ `PROD_USERNAME` - SSH username (deployment)
- ✅ `PROD_SSH_KEY` - SSH private key for authentication

### Deployment Process:

1. **Automatic Triggers:**
   - Push to `main` branch
   - Manual workflow dispatch from GitHub Actions

2. **Pipeline Steps:**
   - Code quality checks (flake8, black, isort, bandit)
   - Automated testing with PostgreSQL
   - Docker image building
   - Secure deployment to production server
   - Health checks and verification

3. **Deployment Files:**
   - `deploy-production/` - Ubuntu/Debian production setup
   - `deploy-synology/` - Synology NAS deployment option

### Manual Deployment:

If you need to deploy manually:

```bash
# 1. Prepare production server
sudo bash deploy-production/server-setup.sh

# 2. Deploy application
bash deploy-production/deploy.sh
```

### Monitoring:

- GitHub Actions: Monitor deployment status
- Server logs: `docker-compose logs -f`
- Application health: Check configured health endpoints

### Next Steps:

1. Monitor the first automated deployment
2. Configure SSL certificates with Certbot
3. Set up monitoring and backups
4. Configure domain DNS
