🚀 Local Development

1. (Optional) Point Your Domain Locally

Pointing the domain to your local machine in your hosts file is crucial to make it behave exactly like the production server. Without it, you won't be able to test all the Nginx overrides, like the proper language redirects.

Edit your hosts file to point patrykb.pl to your local machine:

127.0.0.1 patrykb.pl

---

2. Run the Nginx Proxy container

On Windows (PowerShell recommended):

docker run --rm -d `
  --name local-nginx-proxy `
  -p 80:80 `
  -v <absolute-path-to-this-dir>\nginx-local-proxy.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro `
  nginx:alpine

On Linux/MacOS:

docker run --rm -d \
  --name local-nginx-proxy \
  --network host \
  -v <absolute-path-to-this-dir>/nginx-local-proxy.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro \
  nginx:alpine

Note: Replace <absolute-path-to-this-dir> with the full path to your project directory.

3. Access the Blog

Open http://patrykb.pl (or http://localhost if you didn't decide to meddle with your hosts file) in your browser.

🚢 Manual Deployment

1. Build and Push the Docker Image

• On Linux/MacOS/Git Bash:
  Run ./build-and-push.sh
• On Windows PowerShell:
  Run ./build-and-push.ps1

The script will output the new image tag (e.g., 240526_2130).

---

2. Deploy the Stack

On Windows PowerShell:

$env:IMAGE_TAG = "<paste-tag-here>"
docker stack deploy --with-registry-auth -c .\compose.prod.yml blog-astro

On Linux/MacOS:

IMAGE_TAG=<paste-tag-here> docker stack deploy --with-registry-auth -c compose.prod.yml blog-astro

📝 Notes

• Make sure you're logged in to GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io) before pushing images.
• The Nginx proxy is only for local development. In production, Nginx is configured inside the container.
• If you update the Nginx config or static files, rebuild and redeploy the Docker image.
