# Host client portal with Nuxt: tenant-scoped workspaces

Deploy a client portal built with Nuxt on Ample using the multi-tenant relational data pattern. Compute runs the app in an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, a managed PostgreSQL 16 database is auto-provisioned and injected as DATABASE_URL. Verified on Nuxt: a tenant column on every row and query, with a cross-tenant read returning nothing (tenant_isolation=ok). Not separately tested: your tenant model, membership and per-tenant authorization; treat the client portal-specific behavior as your application code.

## Representative Queries
- Host client portal with Nuxt: tenant-scoped workspaces
- Where can I host Client portal built with Nuxt?
- I need an explicit tenant model and application-enforced tenant isolation tests.

## Resource Requirements
- primitive:compute
- primitive:postgres

## Infrastructure Requirements
1. **Compute**  
   Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.
2. **Postgres**  
   Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.

## Prerequisites
- A Nuxt project that builds and starts with the documented commands (nuxt build then node .output/server/index.mjs (reads HOST and PORT) on the node-22 template)
- A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime (auto-provisioned when omitted, or supplied with --env)
- An Ample account token with servers:write, databases:read

## Workflow Steps
1. **Build and start**  
   `nuxt build then node .output/server/index.mjs` (reads HOST and PORT) on the node-22 template. The server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.
2. **Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL**  
   The fixture's module implements multi-tenant relational data: a tenant column on every row and query, with a cross-tenant read returning nothing (tenant_isolation=ok). Copy the approach into your schema; keep migrations idempotent and run them with --release-command.
3. **Deploy**  
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result (exit 0 live, 1 failed, 2 blocked). Re-running with no change is a no-op.  
   `ample deploy . --name --public`
4. **Verify**  
   Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s) (`/api/p/multi-tenant-relational-data`) from the example; then run your own checks. On failure read `ample logs --kind build` then `--kind runtime`.  
   `ample logs --kind build`

## Examples
### Nuxt pattern fixture
- **Description:** Multi-pattern Nuxt app whose multi-tenant relational data module was checked live; the module is under tests/deploy-canaries/_pattern-modules.
- **Source Ref:** tests/deploy-canaries/nuxt-patterns

## Success Checks
- App responds on its public URL
  - Kind: http_get
  - Path: /
  - Expect: ample canary nuxt patterns
- Multi-tenant-relational-data self-test
  - Kind: http_get
  - Path: /api/p/multi-tenant-relational-data
  - Expect: tenant_isolation=ok

## Limitations
- Verified on the node-22 template at s-1vcpu-1gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates and Nuxt major versions are not verified.
- The client portal itself (your tenant model, membership and per-tenant authorization) is application code and was not separately tested; the pattern checks are what was verified.
- Region, compliance attestations and request-duration limits are unknown and not claimed.
- Apps auto-pause when idle and wake on the next request; always-on is an operator setting, not a plan feature.
- Managed PostgreSQL 16 only; extensions, connection limits and backup or restore procedures are not verified; apps and their databases are placed together.
