From 8db89373e085c36138a9e6a22e708f44cb5bbcd8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: olsch01 Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2026 16:55:19 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Add production infrastructure: compiled builds, clustering, connection pooling Root cause of 502 errors under 30 concurrent users: the production server was running dev-mode infrastructure (Vite dev server, NestJS --watch, no DB connection pooling, single Node.js process). Changes: - backend/Dockerfile: multi-stage prod build (compiled JS, no devDeps) - frontend/Dockerfile: multi-stage prod build (static assets served by nginx) - frontend/nginx.conf: SPA routing config for frontend container - docker-compose.prod.yml: production overlay with tuned Postgres, memory limits, health checks, restart policies - nginx/production.conf: keepalive upstreams, proxy buffering, rate limiting - backend/src/main.ts: Node.js clustering (1 worker per CPU, up to 4), conditional request logging, production CORS - backend/src/app.module.ts: TypeORM connection pool (max 30, min 5) - docs/DEPLOYMENT.md: new Production Deployment section Deploy with: docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 --- backend/Dockerfile | 26 ++++++++++ backend/src/app.module.ts | 7 +++ backend/src/main.ts | 54 ++++++++++++++++---- docker-compose.prod.yml | 96 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ docs/DEPLOYMENT.md | 104 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- frontend/Dockerfile | 22 ++++++++ frontend/nginx.conf | 20 ++++++++ nginx/production.conf | 97 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 8 files changed, 408 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) create mode 100644 backend/Dockerfile create mode 100644 docker-compose.prod.yml create mode 100644 frontend/Dockerfile create mode 100644 frontend/nginx.conf create mode 100644 nginx/production.conf diff --git a/backend/Dockerfile b/backend/Dockerfile new file mode 100644 index 0000000..c8fac84 --- /dev/null +++ b/backend/Dockerfile @@ -0,0 +1,26 @@ +# ---- Production Dockerfile for NestJS backend ---- +# Multi-stage build: compile TypeScript, then run with minimal image + +# Stage 1: Build +FROM node:20-alpine AS builder +WORKDIR /app +COPY package*.json ./ +RUN npm ci +COPY . . +RUN npm run build + +# Stage 2: Production +FROM node:20-alpine +WORKDIR /app + +# Only install production dependencies +COPY package*.json ./ +RUN npm ci --omit=dev && npm cache clean --force + +# Copy compiled output from builder +COPY --from=builder /app/dist ./dist + +EXPOSE 3000 + +# Run the compiled JS directly — no ts-node, no watch, no devDeps +CMD ["node", "dist/main"] diff --git a/backend/src/app.module.ts b/backend/src/app.module.ts index dae6fa5..6c87411 100644 --- a/backend/src/app.module.ts +++ b/backend/src/app.module.ts @@ -43,6 +43,13 @@ import { ScheduleModule } from '@nestjs/schedule'; autoLoadEntities: true, synchronize: false, logging: false, + // Connection pool — reuse connections instead of creating new ones per query + extra: { + max: 30, // max pool size (across all concurrent requests) + min: 5, // keep at least 5 idle connections warm + idleTimeoutMillis: 30000, // close idle connections after 30s + connectionTimeoutMillis: 5000, // fail fast if pool is exhausted + }, }), }), DatabaseModule, diff --git a/backend/src/main.ts b/backend/src/main.ts index 1079c90..5f5ff34 100644 --- a/backend/src/main.ts +++ b/backend/src/main.ts @@ -1,18 +1,51 @@ +import cluster from 'node:cluster'; +import os from 'node:os'; import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core'; import { ValidationPipe } from '@nestjs/common'; import { SwaggerModule, DocumentBuilder } from '@nestjs/swagger'; import { AppModule } from './app.module'; +const isProduction = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production'; + +// --------------------------------------------------------------------------- +// Clustering — fork one worker per CPU core in production +// --------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +const WORKERS = isProduction + ?
