- Removed node_modules from nginx blocked paths for Vite dependency serving
- Set VITE_ALLOWED_HOSTS=all in development mode for Docker networking
Fixes issue where nginx was blocking Vite's pre-bundled dependencies in
/node_modules/.vite/deps/, causing 404 errors for React and other imports.
- Add in-process scheduler service triggered by ENABLE_SCHEDULER
- Record runs in new matching_runs table; throttle per-event and log stats
- Add admin endpoints: POST /api/admin/events/:slug/run-now and GET /api/admin/events/:slug/matching-runs

- Prisma schema: add MatchingRun model and relation
- Update env examples for scheduler configuration
- Rename .env.example to .env.development.example
- Update docker-compose.yml to use env_file for dev backend
- Update .gitignore to ignore .env.development and .env.production
- Remove generic .env and .env.example in favor of:
* .env.development (dev) + .env.development.example (template)
* .env.production (prod) + .env.production.example (template)
- Add production Dockerfiles for frontend and backend
* Frontend: multi-stage build with nginx serving static files
* Backend: multi-stage build with Prisma generation
- Create production nginx configuration (nginx/conf.d.prod/)
* Routes to frontend-prod:80 and backend-prod:3000
* Supports WebSocket connections for Socket.IO
- Update docker-compose.yml to use production config
* Add env_file support for backend-prod

Add complete WebRTC peer-to-peer file transfer functionality:
Backend changes:
- Add WebRTC signaling events to Socket.IO (offer, answer, ICE candidates)
- Implement authorization checks for match participants
- Add signaling relay between matched users
Frontend changes:
- Create useWebRTC hook for RTCPeerConnection management
- Implement RTCDataChannel with 16KB chunking for large files
- Add real-time progress monitoring for sender and receiver
- Implement automatic file download on receiver side
- Add connection state tracking and error handling
- Integrate WebRTC with MatchChatPage (replace mockup)
Configuration:
- Add Vite allowed hosts configuration via VITE_ALLOWED_HOSTS env var
- Support comma-separated host list or 'all' for development
- Add .env.example with configuration examples
- Update docker-compose.yml with default allowed hosts
Documentation:
- Add comprehensive WebRTC testing guide with troubleshooting
- Add quick test checklist for manual testing
- Document WebRTC flow, requirements, and success criteria
Features:
- End-to-end encrypted P2P transfer (DTLS)
- 16KB chunk size optimized for DataChannel
- Buffer management to prevent overflow
- Automatic connection establishment with 30s timeout
- Support for files of any size
- Real-time progress tracking
- Clean connection lifecycle management
Simplified Docker Compose configuration by using native profiles
instead of override files, following best practices.
Changes:
- Consolidated docker-compose.yml with --profile dev/prod support
- Removed docker-compose.dev.yml and docker-compose.prod.yml
- Updated all documentation for new usage pattern
- Created comprehensive README.md and DEPLOYMENT.md
- Simplified commands: 'docker compose --profile dev up'
Environment-specific configurations:
- Development: relaxed security, hot reload, exposed ports
- Production: strict security, optimized builds, restricted access
This approach is cleaner, more maintainable, and follows Docker
Compose best practices.
Phase 1 - Step 2: PostgreSQL Setup
**Infrastructure:**
- Add PostgreSQL 15 Alpine container to docker-compose.yml
- Configure persistent volume for database data
- Update backend Dockerfile with OpenSSL for Prisma compatibility
**Database Schema (Prisma):**
- 6 tables: users, events, chat_rooms, messages, matches, ratings
- Foreign key relationships and cascading deletes
- Performance indexes on frequently queried columns
- Unique constraints for data integrity
**Prisma Setup:**
- Prisma Client for database queries
- Migration system with initial migration
- Seed script with 4 test events and chat rooms
- Database connection utility with singleton pattern
**API Implementation:**
- GET /api/events - List all events (with filtering and sorting)
- GET /api/events/:id - Get single event with relations
- Database connection test on server startup
- Graceful database disconnect on shutdown
**Seed Data:**
- Warsaw Dance Festival 2025
- Swing Camp Barcelona 2025
- Blues Week Herräng 2025
- Krakow Swing Connection 2025
**Testing:**
- Database connection verified ✅
- API endpoints returning data from PostgreSQL ✅
- Migrations applied successfully ✅
All systems operational 🚀
- Docker Compose setup with nginx reverse proxy and frontend service
- React + Vite + Tailwind CSS configuration
- Complete mockup of all application views:
- Authentication (login/register)
- Events list and selection
- Event chat with matchmaking
- 1:1 private chat with WebRTC P2P video transfer mockup
- Partner rating system
- Collaboration history
- Mock data for users, events, messages, matches, and ratings
- All UI text and messages in English
- Project documentation (CONTEXT.md, TODO.md, README.md, QUICKSTART.md)
