## Host documentation site with React Router: bulk content imports

Deploy a documentation site built with React Router on Ample using the bulk import staging 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, a private S3-compatible bucket holds objects with credentials delivered as encrypted environment variables. Verified on React Router: a CSV staged as an object, row-level validation with per-row errors recorded, and a restart-safe import keyed by import id (imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok). Not separately tested: your import format, mapping and conflict rules; treat the documentation site-specific behavior as your application code.

### Prerequisites
- A React Router project that builds and starts with the documented commands (react-router build then react-router-serve on the node-22 template)
- A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime (auto-provisioned when omitted, or supplied with --env)
- A bucket from `ample bucket create` with its credentials passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables
- An Ample account token with servers:write, databases:read, buckets:read

### Workflow Steps
1. **Build and start**  
   Run `react-router build` then `react-router-serve` 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 bulk import staging: a CSV staged as an object, row-level validation with per-row errors recorded, and a restart-safe import keyed by import id (imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok). Copy the approach into your schema; keep migrations idempotent and run them with --release-command.

3. **Wire object storage**  
   Create the bucket(s), then pass endpoint, region, bucket and keys as --env values. Use path-style addressing. Keep private data in an unpublished bucket.

4. **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.  
   Command: `ample deploy . --name  --public --env S3_ENDPOINT=... --env S3_REGION=... --env S3_BUCKET=... --env S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=... --env S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=...`

5. **Verify**  
   Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s) (/p/bulk-import-staging) from the example; then run your own checks. On failure read `ample logs  --kind build` then `--kind runtime`.  
   Command: `ample logs  --kind build`

### Success Checks
- **App responds on its public URL**  
   Path: `/`  
   Expect: `ample canary react router patterns`
- **Bulk-import-staging self-test**  
   Path: `/p/bulk-import-staging`  
   Expect: `imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok`

### Limitations
- Verified on the node-22 template at s-1vcpu-1gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates and React Router major versions are not verified.
- The documentation site itself (your import format, mapping and conflict rules) 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.
- `PutObject` and `GetObject` with path-style addressing are verified; multipart upload, listing, presigned URLs and lifecycle rules are not.

### Cost Estimate
- **Monthly Amount**: $10.00 (USD)  
- **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, monthly amount: $5.00)
  - Managed PostgreSQL database (size: s-1vcpu-1gb, quantity: 1.0, monthly amount: $5.00)
- Note: Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps and databases auto-pause when idle. Buckets are allocation-priced per quota and not included.

### Examples
- **React Router pattern fixture**  
  Multi-pattern React Router app whose bulk import staging module was checked live; the module is under tests/deploy-canaries/_pattern-modules.
