### Host member portal with Laravel: private documents

Deploy a member portal built with Laravel on Ample using the private document library 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 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 member portal-specific behavior as your application code.

#### Representative Queries
- Host member portal with Laravel: private documents
- Where can I host Member portal built with Laravel?
- I need a role-to-document access model and negative authorization tests.

#### 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.

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

### Tested Configuration
- **Template**: php-8.5  
- **Runtime**: php  
- **Size**: s-1vcpu-1gb  
- **Install**: composer install --no-dev --prefer-dist --no-interaction --no-progress --optimize-autoloader  
- **Start**: frankenphp php-server --listen :$PORT --root public

### Workflow Steps
1. **Build and start**  
   Install dependencies and start the server.

2. **Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL**  
   Implement role-to-document access model with negative tests.

3. **Wire object storage**  
   Create the bucket and pass necessary environment variables.

4. **Deploy**  
   Run the deployment command.

5. **Verify**  
   Check the live URL and run self-test route(s).

### Limitations
- Verified on the php-8.5 template at s-1vcpu-1gb.
- The member portal's behavior is considered application code and was not separately tested.

### Cost Estimate
- **Currency**: USD  
- **Monthly Amount**: 10.0  
- **Components**:  
   - App server (s-1vcpu-1gb): 5.0  
   - Managed PostgreSQL database (s-1vcpu-1gb): 5.0  
- **Note**: Always-on monthly price; auto-pause when idle.

### Evidence Summary
- **Canary Run**: Laravel pattern fixture deployed on Ample with checks passed.

### Next Actions
- Prepare a side-effect-free deployment plan for an authorized project.
