Host marketplace with Nuxt: authorized file delivery

Deploy a marketplace built with Nuxt on Ample using the generated downloads 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 Nuxt: an export query rendered to a CSV artifact stored with metadata in a private bucket and returned only to an authorized caller (401 without token, export=ok rows=3). Not separately tested: your export formats, retention policy and entitlement model; treat the marketplace-specific behavior as your application code.

Representative Queries

• Host marketplace with Nuxt: authorized file delivery
• Where can I host Marketplace built with Nuxt?
• I need a file entitlement model and an application-enforced download authorization flow.

Resource Requirements

• primitive:compute
• primitive:postgres
• primitive: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.
   More Info
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.
   More Info
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.
   More Info

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 generated downloads: an export query rendered to a CSV artifact. 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.
4. Deploy
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result.
   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) from the example; then run your own checks.
   Command: ample logs --kind build

Examples

• Nuxt pattern fixture
  Multi-pattern Nuxt app whose generated downloads module was checked live; the module is under tests/deploy-canaries/_pattern-modules.
  Source: tests/deploy-canaries/nuxt-patterns

Success Checks

1. App responds on its public URL.
   Expect: ample canary nuxt patterns
2. Generated-downloads self-test.
   Expect: export=ok rows=3 (with ?token=...; 401 without)

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 marketplace itself (your export formats, retention policy and entitlement model) is application code and was not separately tested.
• Managed PostgreSQL 16 only; extensions, connection limits and backup or restore procedures are not verified.
