fix: production deployment issues with Traefik and database migrations
- Add missing created_at column to email_queue table
- Fix 502 Bad Gateway errors with proper Traefik routing configuration
- Create docker-compose.traefik.yml for external Traefik deployment
- Fix health check endpoint path for API path stripping
- Add PostgreSQL init script for Umami database creation
- Add comprehensive deployment guide for Traefik setup

The backend now properly handles /api prefix stripping by Traefik and
migrations run safely in production environments with existing schemas.

# Deployment Guide - Traefik Production Setup
## Overview
This guide explains how to deploy PicPeak with an external Traefik reverse proxy for production use.
## Fixed Issues
1. **Database Migration**: Added missing `created_at` column to `email_queue` table
2. **502 Bad Gateway**: Properly configured Traefik routing and backend accessibility
3. **Health Checks**: Fixed health check endpoint imports and paths
## Deployment Steps
### 1. Update Environment Variables
Ensure your `.env` file has the correct URLs:
```bash
ADMIN_URL=https://picpeak.nothaft.cloud
FRONTEND_URL=https://picpeak.nothaft.cloud
```
### 2. Build Images
```bash
# Build backend image
docker build -t picpeak-backend:latest ./backend
# Build frontend image
docker build -t picpeak-frontend:latest ./frontend \
--build-arg VITE_API_URL=/api \
--build-arg VITE_UMAMI_URL=${VITE_UMAMI_URL} \
--build-arg VITE_UMAMI_WEBSITE_ID=${VITE_UMAMI_WEBSITE_ID}
```
### 3. Deploy with Traefik
Use the new Traefik-specific compose file:
```bash
docker-compose -f docker-compose.traefik.yml up -d
```
### 4. Verify Deployment
Check that all services are healthy:
```bash
# Check container status
docker-compose -f docker-compose.traefik.yml ps
# Check backend health
curl https://picpeak.nothaft.cloud/api/health
# Check logs
docker-compose -f docker-compose.traefik.yml logs -f backend
```
## Key Differences from Standard Deployment
1. **No Internal Nginx**: Traefik handles all routing externally
2. **API Path Stripping**: Traefik strips `/api` prefix when forwarding to backend
3. **Network Configuration**: Services join external `traefik` network
4. **Health Checks**: Backend exposes `/health` endpoint (not `/api/health`)
## Why CI/CD Tests Pass But Production Fails
CI/CD tests typically:
- Use in-memory or temporary databases with fresh migrations
- Don't test through reverse proxy (direct API calls)
- Don't run background services (email processor, etc.)
- Have different network configurations
Production environment has:
- Persistent database that may have migration state issues
- Reverse proxy routing complexity
- All background services running
- Different security and network constraints
## Troubleshooting
### 502 Bad Gateway
- Check Traefik network connectivity: `docker network ls`
- Verify backend is in traefik network: `docker inspect picpeak-backend`
- Check Traefik logs: `docker logs traefik`
### Database Issues
- Connect to database: `docker exec -it picpeak-db psql -U picpeak`
- Check migration status: `SELECT * FROM migrations;`
- Run migrations manually: `docker exec -it picpeak-backend npm run migrate:safe`
### Email Service Errors
- Check email queue: `SELECT * FROM email_queue ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 10;`
- Monitor email processor: `docker logs picpeak-backend | grep "email"`
