# Sandbox Deployment Platform (SDP)

Internal deployment platform for Backend/QA. Lets a developer deploy a feature
branch into an isolated sandbox, with the API Gateway routing selected
services to the sandbox and the rest to OCP. See
[REQUIREMENTS.md](REQUIREMENTS.md) for the full spec.

## Status (Slice 1 — build green, MVP core flow)

`./scripts/build.sh` produces three Linux/amd64 binaries and a static
dashboard. The MVP core flow — login, deploy a microservice or the PHP
gateway, watch progress and logs in real time — works end to end. The
sandbox / template / route management described in REQUIREMENTS.md is
**deferred to Slice 2** and is not yet built. See
[REQUIREMENTS.md](REQUIREMENTS.md#status) for a per-feature checklist.

```

`agentlib/` is a shared library used by both agents. It owns the git
helpers and the per-deployment state machine, which has two constructors
for two build flavours:

- **`NewGo`** — for microservices. Runs `go build` on the host, then
  `docker run alpine:3.20` with the host repo bind-mounted at `/src` and
  the binary as the container command. `alpine:3.20` must be pre-loaded
  on the host (see [Offline VMs](#offline-vms)).
- **`NewPHP`** — for the API Gateway. Runs `composer install --no-dev`
  on the host as a best-effort step (skipped if `composer` or
  `composer.json` are absent), then `docker run php:8.3-apache` with the
  repo bind-mounted at `/app`. `php:8.3-apache` must be pre-loaded on
  the host. The agent is written in Go; the thing it deploys is a
  PHP project.

## Prerequisites

- Docker (for the build container)
- Node 18+ (for the dashboard)
- `sshpass` (for the deploy scripts: `brew install sshpass`)

No Go install needed locally — `scripts/build.sh` cross-compiles inside
`golang:1.24-alpine`.

## Build

```bash
./scripts/build.sh
```

Outputs:
- `bin/control-plane`, `bin/agent-micro`, `bin/agent-gateway` (Linux/amd64
  ELF, statically linked)
- `dashboard/out/` (NextJS static export)

The build script:
1. Starts a `golang:1.24-alpine` container with the repo bind-mounted.
2. `apk add git` (the base image has none).
3. Configures `safe.directory /src` so the container's root user can
   read the bind-mounted host tree.
4. Cross-compiles all three binaries with `GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64
   CGO_ENABLED=0`, `-trimpath` (reproducible builds) and
   `-ldflags="-s -w"` (strip debug info).
5. `chmod +x` the binaries inside the container (the host user can't
   chmod files written by the container's root).
6. Builds the Next.js dashboard with `npm install && npm run build`.

The script verifies each binary with `file` to catch a missing
`GOOS`/`GOARCH`.

## Deploy

```bash
./scripts/deploy.sh
```

This script:
1. SSHs to **172.18.136.92** (`administrator`) and pushes `bin/agent-micro`
   to `~/SDP/bin/`
2. SSHs to **172.18.139.186** (`administrator`) and pushes
   `bin/control-plane`, `bin/agent-gateway`, and `dashboard/out/` to
   `~/SDP/`
3. Idempotently splices the SDP location block into
   `/etc/nginx/sites-available/default` on 186 and reloads nginx

Override the creds via `SDP_92_PASS` / `SDP_186_PASS` env vars.

## Local dev (docker compose)

For dev on a single host (e.g. a laptop with Docker):

```bash
./scripts/build.sh
docker compose up -d
```

Three services come up on `alpine:latest`:
- `control-plane` → `:8080`
- `agent-micro` (connects to control plane, has docker socket + repos mounted)
- `agent-gateway` (same shape)

## Architecture notes

- **Pass-through creds.** Bitbucket credentials travel with each deploy
  request from control plane to agent, are used once for `git fetch`/`checkout`/
  `pull`, and are never logged or persisted on the agent.
- **No Dockerfile build on the agent.** Each agent does the language
  build on the host (Go or composer), then `docker run <base-image>`
  with the host repo bind-mounted and the binary / apache as the
  container command. The base image must be pre-loaded.
- **Offline VMs.** `alpine:3.20` and `php:8.3-apache` are pre-loaded
  via `docker load`. The dashboard is a static export, no runtime
  fetches.
- **Persistence.** Deployment progress goes to SQLite
  (`<data>/sdp.db`). Log lines go to append-only
  `<data>/logs/<deploymentId>.log`. SQLite uses `modernc.org/sqlite`
  (pure Go, no cgo) so the control plane binary stays statically
  linkable. The driver name is `sqlite` (not `sqlite3`).
- **Docker SDK.** The agents use the official Moby Go SDK at
  `github.com/moby/moby/client` v0.5.0.
- **Realtime transport.** WebSocket end-to-end. Agents connect to
  `/ws/agent` on the control plane; the dashboard subscribes to
  `/ws/deployments/{id}`.

## MVP stubs (intentional, not Slice 1 scope)

These are marked with `ponytail:` comments in the code and are
scheduled for later slices. They are **not** in scope for Slice 1.

- `validateViaAgent` (login) — accepts any creds if an agent is
  connected. Real impl: a `git ls-remote` probe frame to the agent
  (`control-plane/internal/api/api.go:126`).
- `handleListRepos` / `handleListBranches` — hardcoded fixtures.
  Real impl: a `list_repos` / `list_branches` frame to the connected
  agent. The `gitutil.ListBranches` helper and the `agentlib` frame
  protocol are not yet wired up.
- `handleListDeployments` (GET) — returns `[]`. Real impl reads SQLite
  (`control-plane/internal/api/api.go:182`).
- WS auth on `/ws/deployments/*` — open. Real impl checks session token.
- Sandbox, Template, Route, Environment CRUD — entirely deferred to
  Slice 2. The data model, REST endpoints, and dashboard pages do not
  exist yet.
