Before this: service's /healthz always 503'd and the upload endpoint
rejected every submission with scan verdict=error, because clamd was not
installed anywhere reachable. Service worked for the seeded browse view
but no publisher could POST a listing.
Now: a `clamav` sibling container runs the official clamav/clamav:stable
image on an internal docker network only Prometheus can reach. The
Prometheus service connects via CLAMD_HOST=clamav. Signatures live in a
dedicated volume so restarts reuse the ~250 MB freshclam downloaded on
first start.
Two networks on the Prometheus container now:
prometheus-internal bridge, service + clamav only; clamd never exposed
hephaestus external hephaestus_default, so Hephaestus's Caddy
continues to route prometheus.x → prometheus:3700
depends_on with condition=service_healthy means Prometheus waits for
clamd's healthcheck to pass before starting. clamav's start_period is
5 min to accommodate the signature download; the healthcheck itself
is clamdcheck.sh / clamdscan --ping with a 10s timeout per probe.
Deploy on the VPS:
cd ~/prometheus && git pull && cd deploy
docker compose pull clamav # first time, 500+ MB
docker compose up -d # Prometheus will wait for clamav healthy
The VPS runs Caddy inside Docker as part of the Hephaestus stack (not
system-wide angie as the earlier deploy/README assumed), so the shape
of the deploy is: Prometheus runs as its own small docker-compose that
attaches to Hephaestus's existing network, and Hephaestus's Caddy
reverse-proxies prometheus.x → prometheus:3700.
Dockerfile: node:22-alpine base (keeps the image ~55 MB and gives us
node:sqlite stable), tini for signal handling, non-root `node` user,
one /data volume holding the DB + ed25519 service key + uploads +
snapshot build output.
docker-compose: one service, attaches hephaestus_default as external
network, env sourced from an .env file alongside the compose. The .env
is NOT committed (contains ADMIN_PUBLISHER, optional VirusTotal key,
optional payment config). Healthcheck polls /healthz.
The deploy/prometheus-service.service systemd unit from the earlier
commit is now unused on this host (kept for anyone deploying natively
on a non-dockered box).
