## Host storefront with Nuxt: authorized file delivery

Deploy a storefront 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 storefront-specific behavior as your application code.

### Representative Queries
- Host storefront with Nuxt: authorized file delivery
- Where can I host Storefront 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
- **Compute**: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.
- **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.
- **S3-compatible object storage**: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.

### 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 stored with metadata in a private bucket and returned only to an authorized caller (401 without token, export=ok rows=3).  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 Keep private data in an unpublished bucket.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) (/api/p/generated-downloads) 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
- **Check**: app responds on its public URL
  - **Kind**: http_get
  - **Path**: /
  - **Expect**: ample canary nuxt patterns
- **Check**: generated-downloads self-test
  - **Kind**: http_get
  - **Path**: /api/p/generated-downloads
  - **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 storefront itself (your export formats, retention policy and entitlement model) is application code and was not separately tested; the pattern checks are what was verified.

### Cost Estimate
- **Currency**: USD
- **Monthly Amount**: 10.0
- **Components**:
  - App server: s-1vcpu-1gb (1.0) $5.00
  - Managed PostgreSQL database: s-1vcpu-1gb (1.0) $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.
