Add Authentik blueprints for automated OAuth2/OIDC setup
Automate the manual Authentik configuration process using native YAML blueprints
that are applied on container startup.

Changes:
- Add kaboot-setup.yaml blueprint for local development
- Add kaboot-setup-production.yaml.example for production with configurable domains
- Update docker-compose.yml and docker-compose.prod.yml to mount blueprints
- Add AUTHENTIK_BOOTSTRAP_PASSWORD/TOKEN env vars for automated admin setup
- Update setup.sh to generate bootstrap credentials and display admin password
- Update Caddyfile.example with proper proxy headers for Authentik
- Add Caddyfile to .gitignore (user-specific config)
- Update docs with Quick Start sections for automated setup

The blueprints create:
- OAuth2/OIDC provider (public client, client_id: kaboot-spa)
- Kaboot application with redirect URIs
- kaboot-users group with application binding
- Enrollment flow with sign-up capability
- Password complexity policy
- Test user and service account (passwords set manually)

# Production Deployment Guide
This guide provides instructions for deploying Kaboot to a production environment with Caddy reverse proxy and automatic HTTPS.
## Quick Start (Caddy + Automated Authentik Setup)
```bash
# 1. Generate secrets
./scripts/setup.sh
# 2. Configure production blueprint
cp authentik/blueprints/kaboot-setup-production.yaml.example \
authentik/blueprints/kaboot-setup-production.yaml
# Edit the blueprint - update domains in the 'context' section:
# kaboot_domain: your-app.com
# auth_domain: auth.your-app.com
# Remove dev blueprint to avoid conflicts
rm authentik/blueprints/kaboot-setup.yaml
# 3. Configure Caddyfile
cp Caddyfile.example Caddyfile
# Edit Caddyfile - replace example.com with your domains
# 4. Update .env with production values
# - OIDC_ISSUER=https://auth.your-app.com/application/o/kaboot/
# - OIDC_JWKS_URI=https://auth.your-app.com/application/o/kaboot/jwks/
# - CORS_ORIGIN=https://your-app.com
# 5. Build frontend with production URLs
VITE_API_URL=https://your-app.com/api \
VITE_OIDC_AUTHORITY=https://auth.your-app.com/application/o/kaboot/ \
npm run build
# 6. Start the stack
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml -f docker-compose.caddy.yml up -d
# 7. Verify
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml -f docker-compose.caddy.yml ps
```
## Prerequisites
- A Linux server with Docker and Docker Compose installed.
- Two registered domain names (e.g., `kaboot.example.com` and `auth.example.com`).
- DNS A records pointing both domains to your server.
- A Google Gemini API key.
## Architecture Overview
In production, the stack consists of:
- **Caddy**: Reverse proxy with automatic HTTPS via Let's Encrypt.
- **Authentik**: Identity Provider for OAuth2/OIDC authentication.
- **Kaboot Backend**: Express server for quiz logic and SQLite storage.
- **Kaboot Frontend**: Static assets served via Caddy.
- **PostgreSQL**: Database for Authentik.
- **Redis**: Cache and task queue for Authentik.
## Environment Variables
Create a production `.env` file. Do not commit this file to version control.
### Backend & Authentik Configuration
```env
# Database Passwords (Generated by setup.sh)
PG_PASS=your_strong_postgres_password
AUTHENTIK_SECRET_KEY=your_strong_authentik_secret
# Bootstrap credentials (Generated by setup.sh)
AUTHENTIK_BOOTSTRAP_PASSWORD=your_admin_password
AUTHENTIK_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN=your_api_token
# OIDC Production Settings (update with your domains)
OIDC_ISSUER=https://auth.example.com/application/o/kaboot/
OIDC_JWKS_URI=https://auth.example.com/application/o/kaboot/jwks/
# Security
CORS_ORIGIN=https://kaboot.example.com
LOG_REQUESTS=true
```
### Frontend Configuration
The frontend requires environment variables at build time:
- `VITE_API_URL`: `https://kaboot.example.com/api`
- `VITE_OIDC_AUTHORITY`: `https://auth.example.com/application/o/kaboot/`
## Docker Compose Files
The project includes pre-configured compose files:
- **`docker-compose.prod.yml`** - Production services (Authentik, Backend, PostgreSQL, Redis)
- **`docker-compose.caddy.yml`** - Caddy reverse proxy overlay
These files are ready to use - no need to create your own.
## HTTPS and Reverse Proxy
Choose one of the following reverse proxy options. Caddy is recommended for its simplicity and automatic HTTPS.
### Option 1: Caddy (Recommended)
Caddy automatically obtains and renews SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt.
A separate `docker-compose.caddy.yml` is provided to add Caddy to your stack.
**Step 1: Create the Caddyfile**
Copy and customize the example Caddyfile:
```bash
cp Caddyfile.example Caddyfile
```
Edit `Caddyfile` and replace `kaboot.example.com` and `auth.example.com` with your actual domains:
```caddyfile
kaboot.example.com {
root * /srv/frontend
file_server
try_files {path} /index.html
handle /api/* {
reverse_proxy kaboot-backend:3001
}
handle /health {
reverse_proxy kaboot-backend:3001
}
}
auth.example.com {
reverse_proxy authentik-server:9000 {
header_up X-Forwarded-Proto {scheme}
header_up X-Forwarded-Host {host}
transport http {
keepalive 30s
}
}
}
```
**Step 2: Build the Frontend**
```bash
npm run build
```
This creates the `dist/` directory with production assets.
**Step 3: Start with Caddy**
Use both compose files together:
```bash
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml -f docker-compose.caddy.yml up -d
```
This will:
- Start all Kaboot services (backend, Authentik, PostgreSQL, Redis)
- Start Caddy as a reverse proxy on ports 80 and 443
- Automatically obtain SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt
**Step 4: Verify**
Check that all services are running:
```bash
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml -f docker-compose.caddy.yml ps
```
View Caddy logs:
```bash
docker logs kaboot-caddy
```
Check Authentik blueprint was applied:
```bash
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs authentik-server | grep -i blueprint
```
**Stopping the Stack**
```bash
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml -f docker-compose.caddy.yml down
```
### Option 2: Nginx
Use Nginx as a reverse proxy with manual SSL certificate management.
```nginx
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name kaboot.example.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/kaboot.example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/kaboot.example.com/privkey.pem;
location / {
root /var/www/kaboot/frontend;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
}
location /api/ {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3001/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
}
location /health {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3001/health;
}
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name auth.example.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/auth.example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/auth.example.com/privkey.pem;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:9000;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
```
## Authentik Configuration for Production
### Option A: Automated Setup with Blueprint (Recommended)
Use the production blueprint for automated configuration:
```bash
# 1. Copy and configure the production blueprint
cp authentik/blueprints/kaboot-setup-production.yaml.example \
authentik/blueprints/kaboot-setup-production.yaml
# 2. Edit the blueprint and update the domains
# Find the 'context' section and change:
# - kaboot_domain: kaboot.example.com -> your-app.com
# - auth_domain: auth.example.com -> auth.your-app.com
# 3. Remove the development blueprint (prevents conflicts)
rm authentik/blueprints/kaboot-setup.yaml
# 4. Start the stack - blueprint applies automatically
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
```
### Option B: Manual Configuration
1. **Update Redirect URIs**: In the Authentik Admin interface, go to **Applications** > **Providers** > **Kaboot OAuth2**. Update the **Redirect URIs** to use your production domain:
- `https://kaboot.example.com/callback`
- `https://kaboot.example.com/silent-renew.html`
- `https://kaboot.example.com`
### Email Configuration
To enable password recovery, configure SMTP settings in Authentik. In the Admin interface, go to **System** > **Settings** and update the Email section.
- Host: your SMTP server
- Port: 587 or 465
- Username/Password: your credentials
- Use TLS/SSL: Enabled
## Database Backup Strategy
Kaboot uses SQLite, making backups straightforward.
### SQLite (Kaboot Data)
The database file is located in the `kaboot-data` volume at `/data/kaboot.db`. To back it up:
```bash
docker exec kaboot-backend sqlite3 /data/kaboot.db ".backup '/data/backup_$(date +%F).db'"
```
Then, copy the backup file from the volume to a secure location.
### PostgreSQL (Authentik Data)
For Authentik's metadata:
```bash
docker exec kaboot-postgresql pg_dump -U authentik authentik > authentik_backup_$(date +%F).sql
```
## Security Checklist
- [ ] Run `./scripts/setup.sh` to generate strong secrets (don't use defaults).
- [ ] Ensure `NODE_ENV` is set to `production`.
- [ ] Use HTTPS for all connections (Caddy handles this automatically).
- [ ] Set `CORS_ORIGIN` to your specific frontend domain (e.g., `https://kaboot.example.com`).
- [ ] Update `OIDC_ISSUER` and `OIDC_JWKS_URI` to use your auth domain with HTTPS.
- [ ] Regularly back up the `kaboot.db` and PostgreSQL data.
- [ ] Monitor logs by setting `LOG_REQUESTS=true`.
- [ ] Keep Docker images updated to the latest stable versions.
- [ ] Configure firewall to only allow ports 80 and 443 from the internet.
