Docker Architecture

IntelliFill uses a multi-container architecture with Docker Compose.

Service Overview

# Services in docker-compose.yml
services:
  postgres:         # PostgreSQL database
  redis:            # Redis cache & queues
  backend:          # Express API
  frontend:         # React UI
  nginx:            # Reverse proxy (production)

Dockerfile Patterns

IntelliFill uses multi-stage builds for optimization.

Backend Dockerfile (Development)

# quikadmin/Dockerfile.dev
FROM node:18-alpine AS base

# Install dependencies for native modules
RUN apk add --no-cache \
    python3 \
    make \
    g++ \
    cairo-dev \
    jpeg-dev \
    pango-dev \
    giflib-dev

WORKDIR /app

# Copy package files
COPY package*.json ./
COPY prisma ./prisma/

# Install dependencies
RUN npm ci

# Copy source code
COPY . .

# Generate Prisma Client
RUN npx prisma generate

# Expose port
EXPOSE 3002

# Development command with hot reload
CMD ["npm", "run", "dev"]

Backend Dockerfile (Production)

# quikadmin/Dockerfile.prod
FROM node:18-alpine AS builder

# Install build dependencies
RUN apk add --no-cache \
    python3 \
    make \
    g++ \
    cairo-dev \
    jpeg-dev \
    pango-dev

WORKDIR /app

# Copy package files
COPY package*.json ./
COPY prisma ./prisma/

# Install dependencies (production only)
RUN npm ci --only=production

# Copy source
COPY . .

# Generate Prisma Client
RUN npx prisma generate

# Build TypeScript
RUN npm run build

# Production stage
FROM node:18-alpine AS production

WORKDIR /app

# Copy from builder
COPY --from=builder /app/node_modules ./node_modules
COPY --from=builder /app/dist ./dist
COPY --from=builder /app/prisma ./prisma
COPY --from=builder /app/package*.json ./

# Create non-root user
RUN addgroup -g 1001 -S nodejs && \
    adduser -S nodejs -u 1001

USER nodejs

EXPOSE 3002

# Health check
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=3s --start-period=5s --retries=3 \
  CMD node -e "require('http').get('http://localhost:3002/api/health', (r) => { process.exit(r.statusCode === 200 ? 0 : 1); });"

CMD ["node", "dist/index.js"]

Frontend Dockerfile (Development)

# quikadmin-web/Dockerfile.dev
FROM oven/bun:1 AS base

WORKDIR /app

# Copy package files
COPY package.json bun.lock ./

# Install dependencies
RUN bun install

# Copy source
COPY . .

EXPOSE 8080

# Development server with hot reload
CMD ["bun", "run", "dev", "--host", "0.0.0.0"]

Frontend Dockerfile (Production)

# quikadmin-web/Dockerfile.prod
FROM oven/bun:1 AS builder

WORKDIR /app

# Copy package files
COPY package.json bun.lock ./

# Install dependencies
RUN bun install

# Copy source
COPY . .

# Build production bundle
RUN bun run build

# Production stage with nginx
FROM nginx:alpine AS production

# Copy nginx config
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf

# Copy built files
COPY --from=builder /app/dist /usr/share/nginx/html

EXPOSE 80

# Health check
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=3s \
  CMD wget --quiet --tries=1 --spider http://localhost/ || exit 1

CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]

Testing Dockerfile

# quikadmin/Dockerfile.test
FROM node:18-alpine

WORKDIR /app

# Install dependencies
RUN apk add --no-cache \
    python3 \
    make \
    g++

# Copy package files
COPY package*.json ./
COPY prisma ./prisma/

# Install all dependencies (including devDependencies)
RUN npm ci

# Copy source
COPY . .

# Generate Prisma Client
RUN npx prisma generate

# Run tests
CMD ["npm", "run", "test:ci"]

Docker Compose

IntelliFill uses Docker Compose for local development and E2E testing.

Health Checks

Application Health Endpoint

// quikadmin/src/api/health.routes.ts
import { Router } from 'express';
import prisma from '../utils/prisma';
import redis from '../utils/redis';

const router = Router();

router.get('/health', async (req, res) => {
  try {
    // Check database
    await prisma.$queryRaw`SELECT 1`;

    // Check Redis
    await redis.ping();

    res.status(200).json({
      status: 'healthy',
      timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
      services: {
        database: 'up',
        redis: 'up',
      },
    });
  } catch (error) {
    res.status(503).json({
      status: 'unhealthy',
      timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
      error: error.message,
    });
  }
});

export default router;

Docker Health Checks

# Dockerfile with health check
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=3s --start-period=5s --retries=3 \
  CMD node -e "require('http').get('http://localhost:3002/api/health', (r) => { process.exit(r.statusCode === 200 ? 0 : 1); });"

# docker-compose.yml with health checks
services:
  backend:
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:3002/api/health"]
      interval: 30s
      timeout: 10s
      retries: 3
      start_period: 40s

Deployment Strategies

Zero-Downtime Deployment

#!/bin/bash
# deploy.sh

# Pull latest images
docker-compose pull

# Start new containers
docker-compose up -d --no-deps --scale backend=2 backend

# Wait for health check
sleep 10

# Stop old containers
docker-compose up -d --no-deps --scale backend=1 backend

# Clean up
docker system prune -f

Blue-Green Deployment

# docker-compose.blue-green.yml
services:
  backend-blue:
    # Current production
  backend-green:
    # New version
  nginx:
    # Switch between blue/green

Rolling Updates

# Update one container at a time
for service in backend-1 backend-2 backend-3; do
  docker-compose up -d $service
  sleep 30  # Wait for health check
done

Best Practices

Multi-stage builds - Separate build and production stages
Layer caching - Order Dockerfile commands for optimal caching
Non-root user - Run containers as non-root
Health checks - Implement health checks for all services
Resource limits - Set memory and CPU limits
Secrets management - Use Docker secrets or external secret managers
Volume mounts - Use named volumes for persistence
Network isolation - Use custom networks
Graceful shutdown - Handle SIGTERM signals
Logging - Configure proper log drivers
