## Host Subscription Content with Rails: Public Product Media

### Summary
Deploy a subscription content built with Rails on Ample using the public media 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, and a published bucket serves public assets from the CDN host. Verified on Rails: an object written to a published bucket with an immutable Cache-Control header, a mapping row, and the CDN URL serving it publicly. Not separately tested: your media processing, object layout and cache policy; treat the subscription content-specific behavior as your application code.

### Representative Queries
- Host subscription content with Rails: public product media
- Where can I host Subscription content built with Rails?
- I need product-to-object mappings and a tested public media delivery path.

### Resource Requirements
- primitive:compute
- primitive:postgres
- primitive:s3-compatible-object-storage
- primitive:cdn

### 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.
- **CDN**: The CDN host serves objects from published buckets. It does not front app compute and is not a cache or key-value store.

### Prerequisites
1. A Rails project that builds and starts with the documented commands (bundle install into vendor/bundle from Gemfile.lock (development and test groups skipped), then Puma via `rails server` reading PORT on the ruby-3.4 template with RAILS_ENV=production).
2. A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime (auto-provisioned when omitted, or supplied with --env).
3. A bucket from `ample bucket create` with its credentials passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables and a second, published bucket for public assets (CDN_*).
4. An Ample account token with servers:write, databases:read, buckets:read.

### Workflow Steps
1. **Build and Start**: bundle install into vendor/bundle from Gemfile.lock (development and test groups skipped), then Puma via `rails server` reading PORT on the ruby-3.4 template with RAILS_ENV=production. The server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.
2. **Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL**: The fixture's module implements public media library: an object written to a published bucket with an immutable Cache-Control header, a mapping row, and the CDN URL serving it publicly. 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. Keep private data in an unpublished bucket. Publish only the bucket that serves public assets and reference its CDN URL.
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=... --env CDN_PUBLIC_URL=...`
5. **Verify**: Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s) (/p/public-media-library) from the example; then run your own checks. On failure read `ample logs  --kind build` then `--kind runtime`.
   
   Command: `ample logs  --kind build`

### Examples
- **Rails pattern fixture**: Multi-pattern Rails app whose public media library module was checked live; the module is under tests/deploy-canaries/_pattern-modules.

### Success Checks
- App responds on its public URL: Expect a response from `ample canary rails patterns`
- Public-media-library self-test: Expect a CDN URL whose content is served publicly.

### Limitations
- Verified on the ruby-3.4 template at s-1vcpu-1gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates and Rails major versions are not verified.
- The subscription content itself is application code and was not separately tested; the pattern checks are what was verified.
- Apps auto-pause when idle and wake on the next request.

### Cost Estimate
- **Currency**: USD
- **Monthly Amount**: 10.0
- **Components**:
   - App server: s-1vcpu-1gb, quantity: 1.0, monthly amount: 5.0
   - Managed PostgreSQL database: s-1vcpu-1gb, quantity: 1.0, monthly amount: 5.0
