+# Docker Build and Push Workflow
+
+This GitHub Actions workflow automatically builds and pushes Docker images for both the backend and frontend to GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io).
+
+## Features
+
+- 🔧 **Automatic builds** on push to main/develop branches, PRs, and releases
+- 🏗️ **Multi-architecture support** (linux/amd64 and linux/arm64)
+- 🏷️ **Smart tagging** based on branches, versions, and commits
+- 🔒 **Security scanning** with Trivy vulnerability scanner
+- 💾 **Build caching** for faster subsequent builds
+- 📊 **Build summaries** in GitHub Actions UI
+
+## Authentication
+
+The workflow uses the built-in `GITHUB_TOKEN` for authentication with GitHub Container Registry. No additional setup or personal access tokens are required.
+
+### Required Permissions
+
+The workflow automatically sets the necessary permissions:
+- `contents: read` - To checkout the repository
+- `packages: write` - To push images to ghcr.io
+- `security-events: write` - To upload security scan results
+
+## Image Tags
+
+Images are automatically tagged based on the trigger event:
+
+| Event | Tags Generated |
+|-------|---------------|
+| Push to main | `latest`, `main`, `main-<short-sha>` |
+| Push to develop | `develop`, `develop-<short-sha>` |
+| Pull Request | `pr-<number>` |
+| Release (v1.2.3) | `1.2.3`, `1.2`, `1`, `latest` |
+| Manual trigger | Based on branch + optional push |
+
+## Usage
+
+### Pull Images
+
+Once published, images can be pulled using:
+
+```bash
+# Pull backend image
+docker pull ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/backend:latest
+
+# Pull frontend image
+docker pull ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/frontend:latest
+
+# Pull specific version
+docker pull ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/backend:v1.0.0
+
+# Pull for specific architecture
+docker pull --platform linux/arm64 ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/backend:latest
+```
+
+### Using in Docker Compose
+
+```yaml
+version: '3.8'
+
+services:
+  backend:
+    image: ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/backend:latest
+    environment:
+      - NODE_ENV=production
+    ports:
+      - "3001:3000"
+
+  frontend:
+    image: ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/frontend:latest
+    ports:
+      - "80:80"
+```
+
+### Using in Kubernetes
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+  name: picpeak-backend
+spec:
+  replicas: 3
+  template:
+    spec:
+      containers:
+      - name: backend
+        image: ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/backend:latest
+        imagePullPolicy: Always
+```
+
+## Manual Workflow Trigger
+
+You can manually trigger the workflow from the Actions tab:
+
+1. Go to Actions → "Build and Push Docker Images"
+2. Click "Run workflow"
+3. Select branch and whether to push images
+4. Click "Run workflow"
+
+## Security Scanning
+
+The workflow includes Trivy vulnerability scanning that:
+- Scans for CRITICAL and HIGH severity vulnerabilities
+- Uploads results to GitHub Security tab
+- Available under Security → Code scanning alerts
+
+## Build Optimization
+
+The workflow uses several optimization techniques:
+
+1. **GitHub Actions Cache**: Speeds up builds by caching layers
+2. **Multi-stage builds**: Reduces final image size
+3. **Parallel builds**: Backend and frontend build simultaneously
+4. **Smart rebuilds**: Only rebuilds changed components
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Permission Denied Errors
+
+If you encounter permission errors when pushing images:
+
+1. **First-time setup**: The first push creates a private package. You may need to:
+   - Go to your package settings at `https://github.com/users/YOUR_USERNAME/packages`
+   - Link the package to your repository
+   - Set package visibility (public/private)
+
+2. **Organization repositories**: Ensure the organization allows GitHub Actions to create packages
+
+### Build Failures
+
+Check the workflow logs in the Actions tab for detailed error messages. Common issues:
+- Missing dependencies in package.json
+- Dockerfile syntax errors
+- Network issues during package installation
+
+### Image Not Found
+
+If images aren't visible after successful push:
+- Check package visibility settings
+- Ensure you're authenticated to pull private images:
+  ```bash
+  echo $GITHUB_TOKEN | docker login ghcr.io -u YOUR_USERNAME --password-stdin
+  ```
+
+## Package Management
+
+### View Packages
+
+Your Docker images are available at:
+- Backend: `https://github.com/users/the-luap/packages/container/package/picpeak%2Fbackend`
+- Frontend: `https://github.com/users/the-luap/packages/container/package/picpeak%2Ffrontend`
+
+### Delete Old Versions
+
+To save storage, you can delete old versions:
+1. Go to package settings
+2. Click on "Manage versions"
+3. Select versions to delete
+4. Click "Delete selected versions"
+
+### Set Retention Policy
+
+Configure automatic cleanup in package settings:
+1. Go to package settings
+2. Click on "Manage Actions access"
+3. Set retention days for untagged versions
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use semantic versioning** for releases (e.g., v1.2.3)
+2. **Test images locally** before pushing to production
+3. **Monitor security alerts** from Trivy scans
+4. **Clean up old images** regularly to save storage
+5. **Use specific tags** in production (avoid `latest`)
+
+## Advanced Configuration
+
+### Custom Registry
+
+To use a different registry, update the workflow:
+
+```yaml
+env:
+  REGISTRY: docker.io  # or your custom registry
+  BACKEND_IMAGE_NAME: yourusername/picpeak-backend
+```
+
+### Additional Platforms
+
+To build for more platforms:
+
+```yaml
+platforms: linux/amd64,linux/arm64,linux/arm/v7
+```
+
+### Custom Build Arguments
+
+Add build arguments in the workflow:
+
+```yaml
+build-args: |
+  NODE_VERSION=20
+  API_URL=${{ secrets.API_URL }}
+```

 ## 🐳 Docker Compose Deployment
 
-This section covers deploying PicPeak using Docker Compose with direct port exposure. For internet-facing deployments, you'll need to add a reverse proxy (nginx, Traefik, Caddy, etc.) for SSL/HTTPS.
+### Option 1: Using Pre-built Images (Recommended)
+
+PicPeak provides official Docker images via GitHub Container Registry for quick deployment without building:
+
+```bash
+# Clone repository for configuration files
+git clone https://github.com/the-luap/picpeak.git
+cd picpeak
+
+# Copy and configure environment
+cp .env.example .env
+nano .env  # Edit with your values
+
+# Use pre-built images deployment
+docker compose -f docker-compose.production.yml up -d
+```
+
+The production compose file uses:
+- **Backend**: `ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/backend:latest`
+- **Frontend**: `ghcr.io/the-luap/picpeak/frontend:latest`
+
+Available tags:
+- `latest` - Latest stable release
+- `main` - Latest main branch build
+- `develop` - Development branch (may be unstable)
+- `v1.0.0` - Specific version tags
+
+### Option 2: Building from Source
+
+If you need to customize the application or the pre-built images aren't available, you can build locally:

+
+## External Media Library
+
+PicPeak can reference an existing, read‑only media library mounted into the backend container. This avoids copying originals into PicPeak storage.
+
+- Map your host library path to the container as read‑only in `docker-compose.production.yml`:
+  - Add volume under `backend`: `- ${EXTERNAL_MEDIA}:/external-media:ro`
+  - Add backend env: `EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT=/external-media`
+- In `.env`, set:
+  - `EXTERNAL_MEDIA=/mnt/photos` (example host path)
+  - `EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT=/external-media`
+
+Usage:
+- In Admin → Events, set “Source Mode” to “Reference (external folder)”, select a folder under `/external-media`, then import to index and generate thumbnails. Originals stay in your library.
+
+Backups and Archives:
+- Backups only include data under `STORAGE_PATH` and exclude external originals. The backup manifest includes `metadata.external_references = { excluded: true, events: N, photos: M }` and the Admin UI surfaces a warning.
+- Archiving reference events creates a manifest‑only ZIP and deletes thumbnails for that event. External originals are never moved or deleted.
+
+Local (npm) setup (no Docker):
+
+1. Create or choose a folder that contains your external originals, e.g. `/Users/you/Pictures/picpeak-external` (macOS/Linux) or `C:\\Pictures\\picpeak-external` (Windows).
+2. In `backend/.env` (or your shell), set:
+   - `EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT=/absolute/path/to/picpeak-external`
+   - Ensure `STORAGE_PATH` points to your PicPeak storage (defaults to `./storage`).
+3. Start services from source:
+   - Backend: `cd backend && npm install && npm run migrate && JWT_SECRET=... npm start`
+   - Frontend: `cd frontend && npm install && npm run dev` (or build + serve)
+4. In Admin → Events:
+   - Create an event, set “Source Mode” to “Reference (external folder)”.
+   - Use the folder picker to browse under your `EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT` and select the subfolder to reference.
+   - Click “Import from selected folder” to index files and generate thumbnails on demand.
+
+Notes:
+- PicPeak only reads from `EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT`; it never modifies or deletes your originals there.
+- Thumbnails are generated under `STORAGE_PATH/thumbnails` and are included in backups; originals in `EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT` are excluded.
+- On Windows, use absolute paths (e.g., `C:\\Photos\\Library`) for `EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT`.

+### Public Landing Page
+
+- `npm run migrate` now seeds three general settings: `general_public_site_enabled`, `general_public_site_html`, and `general_public_site_custom_css` so existing installs stay disabled by default.
+- Configure the feature from **Admin → CMS Pages**. The landing page panel exposes the toggle, HTML editor, optional CSS overrides, preview, and a reset-to-default action.
+- All HTML and CSS submitted through the UI is sanitized server-side. Scripts, inline event handlers, disallowed attributes, `@import` rules, and `javascript:` URLs are stripped before content is cached or rendered.
+- Resetting via the UI (or calling `POST /api/admin/settings/public-site/reset`) restores the bundled template and clears custom CSS.
+- The landing page response is cached in-memory. Override the default 60s cache window by setting `PUBLIC_SITE_CACHE_TTL_MS` (milliseconds) in your environment if you need faster cache busting.
+- When the toggle is off PicPeak continues to serve the SPA/login redirect at `/`, preserving legacy behaviour until you explicitly enable the feature.

-  - `ADMIN_URL` - Admin URL (e.g., `http://localhost:3000` for Docker)
+  - `FRONTEND_URL` - Frontend origin (use full URL with scheme, no trailing slash)

+  - Do not include trailing `/` (e.g., use `http://host:3000`, not `http://host:3000/`).
+  - Always include the scheme (`http://` or `https://`).
+  - The backend compares origins strictly for CORS; malformed values will cause login requests to fail with 500.

+#### External Database Example
+To use an external PostgreSQL instead of the bundled container, set the following in `.env` and ensure the `postgres` service is disabled or removed:
+
+```env
+DB_HOST=db.example.com
+DB_PORT=5432
+DB_USER=picpeak
+DB_PASSWORD=change_me
+DB_NAME=picpeak_prod
+```
+
+Compose uses these values via `env_file: .env`. The backend service also defaults `DB_HOST=${DB_HOST:-postgres}` so if you don’t set `DB_HOST` it will use the bundled `postgres` container.
