# Host vendor portal with Spring Boot: public profile assets

Deploy a vendor portal built with Spring Boot on Ample using the public image delivery 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on Spring Boot: public objects in a published bucket served from the CDN URL, kept separate from private objects in an unpublished bucket that require authorization (private=ok only for the allowed role). Not separately tested: your image processing and profile-media rules; treat the vendor portal-specific behavior as your application code.

## Representative Queries
- Host vendor portal with Spring Boot: public profile assets
- Where can I host Vendor portal built with Spring Boot?
- I need separate public profile media from private data, with CDN cache rules.

## Prerequisites
- A Spring Boot project that builds and starts with the documented commands (./mvnw -q -DskipTests package (or the Gradle wrapper) producing one application jar, then java -jar on the jvm-21 template (Temurin JDK 21) with server.port read from PORT)
- 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 and a second, published bucket for public assets (CDN_*)
- An Ample account token with servers:write, databases:read, buckets:read

## Workflow Steps
1. **Build and start**  
   `./mvnw -q -DskipTests package` (or the Gradle wrapper) producing one application jar, then `java -jar` on the jvm-21 template (Temurin JDK 21) with server.port read from PORT. The server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.

2. **Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL**  
   The fixture's module implements public image delivery: public objects in a published bucket served from the CDN URL, kept separate from private objects in an unpublished bucket that require authorization (private=ok only for the allowed role). 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 Keep private data in an unpublished bucket. 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.  
   ```  
   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, /p/private-document-library) from the example; then run your own checks. On failure read `ample logs  --kind build` then `--kind runtime`.  
   ```  
   ample logs  --kind build  
   ```

## Success Checks
- App responds on its public URL.
- Public-media-library self-test:  a CDN URL whose content is served publicly.
- Private-document-library self-test: private=ok (with ?role=owner; 401 without, 403 for viewer).

## Limitations
- Verified on the jvm-21 template at s-1vcpu-2gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates and Spring Boot major versions are not verified.
- The vendor portal itself (your image processing and profile-media rules) is application code and was not separately tested; the pattern checks are what was verified.
- Region, compliance attestations and request-duration limits are unknown and not claimed.
