# Logistics operators: vendor portal using Laravel

## Summary  
A vendor portal blueprint for logistics operators built with Laravel on Ample. Domain schema: service_products (sku, name, mode, transit_days, price_basis): shipping services as SKUs; capacity_movements (sku, lane, date, delta, reason): capacity as stock movements; shipments (shipment_no, lane, status, booked_at): shipments with status transitions; shipment_lines (shipment_no, sku, units): shipment contents; document_access (document_id, principal_reference, role, granted_at): who may read which document. Public information: service products and transit times, lanes served, tracking entry point. Customs and consignee data are sensitive; only shipment status is modeled here.

## Representative Queries
- Logistics operators: vendor portal using Laravel  
- Where can I host Logistics operators: Vendor portal built with Laravel?  
- I need a genuinely specialized vendor portal workflow covering shipment state, partner access and delivery exception reporting.

## Resource Requirements
- primitive:compute  
- primitive:postgres  
- primitive:s3-compatible-object-storage

## Infrastructure Requirements
- **Compute**: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.
- **Postgres**: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.
- **S3-compatible object storage**: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.

## Prerequisites
- A Laravel project (composer install --no-dev from composer.lock, then FrankenPHP serving public/ (php-server with the index.php fallback) reading PORT on the php-8.5 template)  
- A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL (auto-provisioned when omitted)  
- Bucket credentials from `ample bucket create` passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables  
- A review of which logistics operators data classes may be handled at all; this blueprint models public information only

## Workflow Steps
1. **Model the logistics operators domain**: Create the tables service_products, capacity_movements, shipments, shipment_lines, document_access. Shipping services as SKUs lives in service_products; keep the sensitive classes (consignee addresses, commercial invoices, customs documents) out of this schema.
2. **Workflow step 1**: Model vendors scoped to the agency with roles.  
3. **Workflow step 2**: Authorize document access by vendor and role (401, 403 negative tests).  
4. **Workflow step 3**: Store vendor documents in the private bucket.  
5. **Workflow step 4**: Deploy and verify the negative tests and an authorized download.  
6. **Deploy**: Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result. Re-running with no change is a no-op.
7. **Verify**: Run the pattern self-test(s) from the example (/p/private-document-library) and your own acceptance checks for the logistics operators workflow.

## Limitations
- The technical basis (private document library on Laravel) was verified with the pattern fixture; the logistics operators schema and workflow are an original design for this blueprint and were not executed as a separate application.
- Customs and consignee data are sensitive; only shipment status is modeled here.
- Verified on the php-8.5 template at s-1vcpu-1gb; region, request-duration limits and other sizes are unknown or unverified.

## Cost Estimate
- **Currency**: USD  
- **Monthly Amount**: 10.0  
- **Basis**: size prices from pricing.toml (loaded by the API) at build revision 1ac5595375130d45290090e82ed0f554ccd45405-dirty.
- **Components**:  
  - app server, size: s-1vcpu-1gb, quantity: 1.0, monthlyAmount: 5.0  
  - managed PostgreSQL database, size: s-1vcpu-1gb, quantity: 1.0, monthlyAmount: 5.0

## Evidence Summary
- Laravel pattern fixture deployed on Ample (composer install --no-dev from composer.lock, then FrankenPHP serving public/ (php-server with the index.php fallback) reading PORT on the php-8.5 template); the private document library checks passed: a role-to-document access model with negative tests (401 without identity, 403 for the wrong role) and a private-bucket round-trip for the allowed role (private=ok).
