## Host inventory manager with Laravel: private attachments

Deploy a inventory manager built with Laravel on Ample using the private document library pattern. Compute runs the app in an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, and 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 Laravel: 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). Not separately tested: your identity integration and role assignments; treat the inventory manager-specific behavior as your application code.

### Representative Queries
- Host inventory manager with Laravel: private attachments
- Where can I host Inventory manager built with Laravel?
- I need attachment metadata, access checks and a tested private object access path.

### Resource Requirements
- Compute
- Postgres
- S3-compatible object storage

### Infrastructure Requirements
1. **Compute**  
   Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.
2. **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.
3. **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 that builds and starts with the documented commands (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 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**  
   `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.`
2. **Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL**  
   The fixture's module implements private document library: 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).
3. **Wire object storage**  
   Create the bucket(s), then pass endpoint, region, bucket and keys as --env values. Use path-style addressing.
4. **Deploy**  
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result. 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/private-document-library) from the example; then run your own checks. On failure read logs.

### Examples
- **Laravel pattern fixture**  
   Multi-pattern Laravel app whose private document library module was checked live; the module is under tests/deploy-canaries/_pattern-modules.

### Limitations
- Verified on the php-8.5 template at s-1vcpu-1gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates, and Laravel major versions are not verified.
- The inventory manager itself (your identity integration and role assignments) is application code and was not separately tested; the pattern checks are what was verified.

### Cost Estimate
Monthly Amount: $10.00  
Components:  
- App server (s-1vcpu-1gb) - $5.00  
- Managed PostgreSQL Database (s-1vcpu-1gb) - $5.00  
Note: Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps and databases auto-pause when idle.

### Evidence Summary
- **Canary Run**  
   Laravel pattern fixture deployed on Ample; checks passed for private-document-library and configuration-secrets.
