# Issue #36: Traefik Integration for Docker Compose

## Objective
Implement flexible Traefik reverse proxy integration for Mosaic Stack with support for:
- **Bundled mode**: Self-contained Traefik instance in docker-compose.yml
- **Upstream mode**: Connect to existing external Traefik (e.g., ~/src/traefik)
- **None mode**: Direct port exposure without reverse proxy

## Approach

### 1. Analysis Phase
- [ ] Review existing docker-compose.yml structure
- [ ] Check current environment variables in .env.example
- [ ] Understand existing Traefik setup at ~/src/traefik
- [ ] Review Docker deployment documentation

### 2. Design Phase
- [ ] Design Traefik service configuration (bundled mode)
- [ ] Design labels for upstream mode discovery
- [ ] Define environment variables
- [ ] Plan docker-compose profiles strategy

### 3. TDD Implementation Phase
- [ ] Write integration tests for bundled mode
- [ ] Write integration tests for upstream mode
- [ ] Implement bundled Traefik service
- [ ] Implement upstream mode labels
- [ ] Configure SSL/TLS handling
- [ ] Create docker-compose.override.yml examples

### 4. Documentation Phase
- [ ] Update .env.example with Traefik variables
- [ ] Update docker-compose.yml with inline comments
- [ ] Create Traefik deployment guide
- [ ] Update main Docker deployment README

## Technical Design

### Environment Variables
```bash
# Traefik Configuration
TRAEFIK_MODE=bundled              # bundled, upstream, or none
MOSAIC_API_DOMAIN=api.mosaic.local
MOSAIC_WEB_DOMAIN=mosaic.local
TRAEFIK_NETWORK=traefik-public    # External network name
TRAEFIK_TLS_ENABLED=true
TRAEFIK_ACME_EMAIL=admin@example.com
TRAEFIK_DASHBOARD_ENABLED=true
```

### Docker Compose Profiles
- `traefik-bundled`: Activate bundled Traefik service
- Default: No profile = upstream or none mode

### Network Strategy
- **Bundled**: Create internal `traefik-internal` network
- **Upstream**: Attach to external `${TRAEFIK_NETWORK}` network
- **None**: Use default bridge network

### Service Label Strategy
All services (api, web) get Traefik labels, enabled conditionally:
- Labels always present for upstream mode compatibility
- `traefik.enable` controlled by TRAEFIK_MODE

## Testing Strategy

### Integration Tests
1. **Bundled Mode Test**
   - Verify Traefik service starts
   - Verify dashboard accessible
   - Verify API accessible via domain
   - Verify Web accessible via domain
   - Verify SSL certificate generation

2. **Upstream Mode Test**
   - Verify services connect to external network
   - Verify labels configured correctly
   - Verify no bundled Traefik starts

3. **None Mode Test**
   - Verify direct port exposure
   - Verify no Traefik labels active

## Progress

### Phase 1: Analysis ✅ COMPLETED
- [x] Read current docker-compose.yml
- [x] Read current .env.example
- [x] Check existing documentation structure

### Phase 2: TDD - Write Tests ✅ COMPLETED
- [x] Create test infrastructure (tests/integration/docker/)
- [x] Write bundled mode tests
- [x] Write upstream mode tests
- [x] Write none mode tests
- [x] Create test README.md

### Phase 3: Implementation ✅ COMPLETED
- [x] Update .env.example with Traefik variables
- [x] Create .env.traefik-bundled.example
- [x] Create .env.traefik-upstream.example
- [x] Implement bundled Traefik service in docker-compose.yml
- [x] Add Traefik configuration files (docker/traefik/)
- [x] Add labels to mosaic-api
- [x] Add labels to mosaic-web
- [x] Add labels to authentik-server
- [x] Update docker-compose.override.yml.example
- [x] Add traefik_letsencrypt volume

### Phase 4: Documentation ✅ COMPLETED
- [x] Update .env.example with comprehensive Traefik comments
- [x] Create docs/1-getting-started/4-docker-deployment/traefik.md (comprehensive guide)
- [x] Update docs/1-getting-started/4-docker-deployment/README.md
- [x] Update Makefile with Traefik shortcuts

## Notes

### Compatibility Requirements
- Must work with existing Traefik at ~/src/traefik
- Support `traefik-public` external network
- Self-signed wildcard cert for `*.uscllc.com`
- Traefik 2.x or 3.x compatibility

### Design Decisions
1. **Profile-based activation**: Use docker-compose profiles for clean bundled/upstream separation
2. **Label-first approach**: All services have labels, controlled by `traefik.enable`
3. **Flexible domains**: Environment-variable driven domain configuration
4. **SSL flexibility**: Support both ACME (Let's Encrypt) and self-signed certs

### Blockers
None.

### Questions Resolved
- Q: Should we support Traefik v2 or v3?
  A: Support both, using v3 as default for bundled mode (v3.2)
- Q: How to handle network creation in upstream mode?
  A: Assume external network exists, document prerequisite clearly
- Q: How to handle conditional Traefik enable?
  A: Use environment variable TRAEFIK_ENABLE with default false
- Q: Should ports be exposed in Traefik mode?
  A: Yes, keep port exposure for flexibility (override if needed)

## Implementation Summary

## Configuration Design

### Environment Variables
The implementation uses environment variables for maximum flexibility:

```bash
# Mode selection
TRAEFIK_MODE=bundled|upstream|none

# Enable/disable Traefik labels
TRAEFIK_ENABLE=true|false

# Domain configuration
MOSAIC_API_DOMAIN=api.mosaic.local
MOSAIC_WEB_DOMAIN=mosaic.local
MOSAIC_AUTH_DOMAIN=auth.mosaic.local

# Network configuration
TRAEFIK_NETWORK=traefik-public
TRAEFIK_DOCKER_NETWORK=mosaic-public

# TLS configuration
TRAEFIK_TLS_ENABLED=true|false
TRAEFIK_ACME_EMAIL=admin@example.com
TRAEFIK_CERTRESOLVER=letsencrypt

# Entry points
TRAEFIK_ENTRYPOINT=web|websecure
```

### Profile Strategy
- **Default (no profile)**: Core services only, no Traefik
- **traefik-bundled**: Activates bundled Traefik service
- **authentik**: Activates Authentik SSO services
- **ollama**: Activates Ollama AI service
- **full**: Activates all optional services

### Network Architecture
1. **Bundled Mode**: Uses `mosaic-public` network for Traefik routing
2. **Upstream Mode**: Attaches services to external `${TRAEFIK_NETWORK}` via override file
3. **None Mode**: Services use default networks with direct port exposure

## Testing Approach

### Integration Test Coverage
The test script (`traefik.test.sh`) validates:

**Bundled Mode:**
- Traefik container starts successfully
- Dashboard accessible on port 8080
- API endpoint responds
- Services have correct labels
- Routes registered with Traefik

**Upstream Mode:**
- Bundled Traefik does NOT start
- Services connect to external network
- Labels configured for external discovery
- Correct network attachment

**None Mode:**
- No Traefik container
- Labels disabled (traefik.enable=false)
- Direct port access works
- Services accessible via published ports

### Test Execution
```bash
# All tests
./tests/integration/docker/traefik.test.sh all

# Individual modes
./tests/integration/docker/traefik.test.sh bundled
./tests/integration/docker/traefik.test.sh upstream
./tests/integration/docker/traefik.test.sh none

# Via Makefile
make docker-test-traefik
```
