# 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. ## 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. Web root auto-detection tries, in order: `$HOME/caterium.ru/public_html`, `$HOME/app.caterium.ru/public_html`, `$HOME/public_html`. Set `CATERIUM_WEB_ROOT` explicitly to override. ## 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 "$HOME/.caterium-deploy" ``` ## Timeweb panel Crontab Create one task: - Name: `Caterium production sync` - Schedule: every 5 minutes — minute `*/5`, hour `*`, day `*`, month `*`, weekday `*` If Timeweb offers a "Сценарий SH" interpreter option, point it directly at `$HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh` (simplest, no shell redirection to worry about). If it only offers an arbitrary command, use: ```sh mkdir -p "$HOME/.caterium-deploy" && CATERIUM_REPO_URL="git@github-caterium:pavlov346346-source/caterium-app.git" /bin/sh "$HOME/caterium-production-sync.sh" >> "$HOME/.caterium-deploy/cron.log" 2>&1 ``` The leading `mkdir -p` matters: without it, the very first cron run fails before the script even starts, because the shell opens the log file for the `>>` redirect before executing anything, and `$HOME/.caterium-deploy` does not exist yet on a fresh account. Only override `CATERIUM_WEB_ROOT` in the command above if auto-detection (see above) does not match your account's actual document root — verify the real path first (e.g. by checking what a plain HTTP request to the domain currently serves) rather than assuming `$HOME/public_html`. 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.
