# Timeweb fallback auto-deploy Use this only for the Year/shared-hosting fallback where system `crontab` is unavailable and scheduling is configured in the Timeweb panel. ## Production target: app.caterium.ru Caterium runs as its own Timeweb site (panel name `caterium-app`), bound to `app.caterium.ru`, with document root: ```text $HOME/caterium-app/public_html ``` `caterium.ru` (the apex domain) is a **separate** Timeweb site (panel name "Основной сайт") reserved for a future, unrelated site. This script must never write there. `CATERIUM_WEB_ROOT` is always passed explicitly in the cron command below for this reason — do not rely on auto-detection for this account. ## What it does `caterium-production-sync.sh` checks the GitHub `production` branch, deploys only when the commit changed, validates that `public/index.html` exists, creates a rollback archive before changing live files, prevents overlapping runs, and keeps the four newest backups. If `CATERIUM_WEB_ROOT` is unset, it falls back to auto-detecting `$HOME/caterium-app/public_html` only — it will never guess the account's default document root. ## One-time setup Copy `ops/timeweb/caterium-production-sync.sh` from this repository to: ```text $HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh ``` Check it transferred with LF line endings (a CRLF copy from a Windows machine will fail `sh -n` with a syntax error around the `for` loop): ```sh sh -n "$HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh" || sed -i 's/\r$//' "$HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh" chmod 700 "$HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh" ``` The deploy checkout authenticates over the GitHub SSH deploy key already configured in `~/.ssh/config` on the account. If that config uses a `Host` alias other than `github.com` (for example `github-caterium`), pass the matching URL via `CATERIUM_REPO_URL`, e.g. `git@github-caterium:pavlov346346-source/caterium-app.git` — plain `git@github.com:...` will not pick up the alias's `IdentityFile`. Before relying on cron, create `$HOME/.caterium-deploy` once so the log redirect below has somewhere to write on the very first run: ```sh mkdir -p "$HOME/.caterium-deploy" ``` ## Timeweb panel Crontab Create one task: - Name: `Caterium production sync` - Schedule: every 5 minutes — minute `*/5`, hour `*`, day `*`, month `*`, weekday `*` If Timeweb offers a "Сценарий SH" interpreter option and lets you set environment variables for it, point it at `$HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh` with `CATERIUM_WEB_ROOT` and `CATERIUM_REPO_URL` set as below. If it only offers an arbitrary command, use: ```sh mkdir -p "$HOME/.caterium-deploy" && CATERIUM_REPO_URL="git@github-caterium:pavlov346346-source/caterium-app.git" CATERIUM_WEB_ROOT="$HOME/caterium-app/public_html" /bin/sh "$HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh" >> "$HOME/.caterium-deploy/cron.log" 2>&1 ``` `CATERIUM_WEB_ROOT` is set explicitly on purpose, so a change on the Timeweb side (a new site, a renamed site) can never make this script fall back onto the wrong document root instead of failing loudly. The leading `mkdir -p` matters: without it, the very first cron run fails before the script even starts, because the shell opens the log file for the `>>` redirect before executing anything, and `$HOME/.caterium-deploy` does not exist yet on a fresh account. The old Cloudflare Worker must remain enabled as a fallback until the Timeweb production domain, SSL, Supabase flows, uploads and PDF generation have been verified.
