twooeyandClaude Sonnet 5 ea144d0298 Fix staging HTTPS: force tls internal, require a hostname not a bare IP
Two real, verified findings from actually testing the "let Caddy issue a
self-signed cert automatically" approach against a literal IP:

1. TLS SNI is not sent for literal IP connections (out of spec — SNI's
   HostName type explicitly excludes IPs). Confirmed via openssl s_client:
   the handshake fails with a TLS-layer internal_error, even though Caddy
   logs "certificate obtained successfully" — Caddy has no way to select a
   cert without SNI. No Caddyfile config fixes this; the address has to be
   a hostname.

2. Caddy's automatic-HTTPS heuristic only treats bare IPs and "localhost"
   as obviously-private. Any other name — including a made-up LAN hostname
   like "bookstore-staging.test" — it assumes might be real and tries
   Let's Encrypt, which fails the same way staging.example.com did.
   Fixed by forcing `tls internal` explicitly in Caddyfile.staging,
   removing the guesswork entirely.

Verified end-to-end with curl --resolve (proper SNI, no real DNS/hosts
change needed to test): direct HTTPS 200, HTTP->HTTPS redirect chain 200.

README now documents the /etc/hosts requirement and how to trust Caddy's
root cert to skip the one-time browser warning.

# Bookstore
WordPress + WooCommerce bookstore. Design reference: see `docs/` for the
pre-launch plan and the technical design doc (`bookstore-core` schema,
interfaces, order state machine — the design doc is the source of truth for
*why* this repo is laid out the way it is).
This week's scope (Week 1 of the 5-week plan): environments, deploy
pipeline, and the WooCommerce/HPOS plugin scaffold. Catalog schema, pricing,
supplier adapters, and the order state machine are Week 2+ and live under
`wp-content/plugins/bookstore-core/includes/`, currently empty.
## Layout
```
docker-compose.yml base services: db, redis, wordpress, cron
docker-compose.{dev,staging,production}.yml per-environment overrides (caddy, mailhog)
docker/php/ app image: WP core image + wp-cli, composer, redis ext
docker/caddy/ one Caddyfile per environment
docker/cron/ Action Scheduler driver (system cron has no host to run on in Docker)
deploy/deploy.sh idempotent bring-up + WP/WooCommerce config
deploy/poll-deploy.sh host-crontab script: redeploys when its branch moves on Gitea
deploy/backup.sh, restore.sh off-host backup; restore is staging-only, on purpose
secrets/<env>/ DB passwords, written fresh by deploy.sh — gitignored, not manually edited
wp-content/plugins/bookstore-core/ the one plugin that owns business logic
wp-content/mu-plugins/ local-mail-catcher.php — routes mail to MailHog outside production
```
Same code runs in every environment; only `.env.<env>` and which
`docker-compose.<env>.yml` you layer in differ (design doc §01).
## Local development
```
cp .env.example .env.dev # fill in DB_PASSWORD etc.; localhost values are fine
make up ENV=dev
make deploy ENV=dev # installs WP, WooCommerce, activates bookstore-core, enables HPOS
```
Site is at `http://localhost:8080`. `make wp ENV=dev ARGS="plugin list"` runs
any wp-cli command; `make logs ENV=dev` tails everything; `make shell ENV=dev`
drops into the app container.
## Staging (this is what goes on your Docker server)
```
cp .env.example .env.staging
# fill in SITE_DOMAIN, SITE_URL, DB_*
# SITE_DOMAIN must be a HOSTNAME, not a bare IP — see below
make deploy ENV=staging
```
**SITE_DOMAIN needs to be a hostname, not the VM's IP directly.** TLS SNI
(how Caddy picks which certificate to present) isn't sent for literal IP
connections per spec, so HTTPS to a bare IP fails at the handshake itself
no matter what Caddy does. Pick any hostname (e.g. `bookstore.lan`), add it
to `/etc/hosts` (or the Windows equivalent) on whatever machine you're
browsing from, pointing at the VM's LAN IP, and use that hostname as both
`SITE_DOMAIN` and in `SITE_URL`.
Caddyfile.staging forces `tls internal` — Caddy's own self-signed CA,
issued locally with no external network calls — rather than letting Caddy
guess whether the name looks "public" (its automatic heuristic only
recognizes bare IPs and `localhost` as obviously-private; anything else,
including a made-up LAN hostname, it assumes might be real and tries
Let's Encrypt, which then fails). Your browser will show an untrusted-cert
warning once; click through it, or trust Caddy's root cert to skip that:
```
docker compose -p bookstore-staging exec caddy cat /data/caddy/pki/authorities/local/root.crt
```
Staging is `noindex`'d (`blog_public=0` plus the `X-Robots-Tag` header in
Caddyfile.staging) so search engines won't index it — there's no basic-auth
wall on top of that, since this box is LAN-only and not reachable from
outside. If that ever changes (a public domain, port-forwarding, etc.),
basic-auth is worth adding back before that happens, not after. Mail never
leaves the box: it's caught by MailHog, viewable at `:8025`.
### Theme: Blocksy + the Book Store starter site
`deploy.sh` installs and activates the **Blocksy** theme and the free
**Blocksy Companion** plugin from wordpress.org automatically — nothing to
do here, in any environment.
The **Book Store starter site** itself is a paid Companion Pro template
(Business plan, $99/year — design doc Appendix A), so it can't be scripted
against a public API the way the free theme can. One-time manual step per
environment, in wp-admin:
1. Purchase/retrieve the Blocksy Business license key.
2. **Blocksy → General → License** → activate it.
3. **Blocksy → Extensions → Starter Sites** (Companion Pro) → import
**Book Store**.
After that, the starter site's content and Customizer settings persist in
the database like any other WordPress content — a redeploy or a fresh
`deploy.sh` run doesn't touch it or need to repeat it.
## Deploy pipeline
The Git server (Gitea) and the staging/production Docker hosts are separate
machines, so instead of a webhook receiver listening for an inbound POST
from Gitea, each box just polls its branch and redeploys when it moves —
no inbound port to expose or secure.
1. Clone this repo onto the box (e.g. into `/srv/bookstore`), `cp
.env.example .env.staging` (or `.env.production`) and fill it in.
2. Add a host crontab entry (not inside a container — `crontab -e` on the
box itself):
```
*/2 * * * * /srv/bookstore/deploy/poll-deploy.sh staging >> /var/log/bookstore-deploy.log 2>&1
```
(`production` + `main` on the production box.)
3. `poll-deploy.sh` fetches, compares against the last-deployed commit, and
— only if it moved — checks out the branch and runs `deploy.sh`. Silent
otherwise, so it's safe to run every couple of minutes.
4. The box needs its own git credentials to fetch from Gitea (a read-only
access token works well) — set those up once via a credential helper or
an embedded token in that box's `origin` remote.
You can also just run `./deploy/deploy.sh <env>` by hand at any time; the
poll script is only automation on top of the same idempotent script.
## Backups
```
./deploy/backup.sh staging # or production
```
Dumps the database and archives `wp-content/uploads`, gzips both, and syncs
to `$BACKUP_REMOTE` via `rclone` if set (configure `rclone config` on the
server first — this repo doesn't manage remote credentials). Before launch,
run a real restore drill:
```
./deploy/restore.sh ./backups/production/db-<ts>.sql.gz ./backups/production/uploads-<ts>.tar.gz
```
`restore.sh` only ever targets staging — there's no production argument, so
a restore drill can't accidentally overwrite the live site.
## What's deliberately not here yet
- Catalog tables, pricing engine, supplier adapters, order state machine —
Week 24, see the design doc.
- A real TLS-terminating public domain — Caddy will auto-provision certs
once `SITE_DOMAIN` points at a real host with 80/443 reachable; until
then `docker-compose.dev.yml` is the only one that works from
`localhost`.
- CI test/lint automation — nothing here runs tests yet because there's no
application code to test yet.
