## The short version

An order tracking blueprint for direct-to-consumer brands built with Laravel on Ample. Domain schema: products (sku, name, collection, price, active): product catalog; stock_movements (sku, warehouse, delta, reason, moved_at): fulfillment stock; orders (order_no, channel, status, placed_at): orders with status transitions; order_lines (order_no, sku, qty, unit_price): order contents; events (seq, record_type, record_id, kind, at): application-owned history written in the same transaction. Public information: product catalog and collections, shipping and returns policy, brand story. Kept out of scope until handling is reviewed: customer contact and payment details, discount codes tied to individuals. Checkout and payment are handled by your commerce provider; only catalog, stock and order status are modeled here. Technical basis verified on Laravel: an optimistic version check and an event row written in the same transaction, a stale update rejected, and a history query over the application-owned events (history=2 conflict=rejected).

## What it needs

- [Compute](/content/discover/primitive/compute/index.html): verified (Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs; sizes are the priced VM sizes.)
- [Postgres](/content/discover/primitive/postgres/index.html): verified (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](/content/discover/primitive/s3-compatible-object-storage/index.html): verified (Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.)

## Before you start

- A Laravel project (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 (auto-provisioned when omitted)
- Bucket credentials from `ample bucket create` passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables
- A review of which direct-to-consumer brands data classes may be handled at all; this blueprint models public information only

## How to do it

1.  Create the tables products, stock_movements, orders, order_lines, events. Product catalog lives in products; keep the sensitive classes (customer contact and payment details, discount codes tied to individuals) out of this schema.
2.  Model orders with explicit status transitions and order lines
3.  Apply status changes transactionally and record an event per change
4.  Expose status history to authorized callers only
5.  Deploy and verify history and conflict rejection
6.  Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result. Re-running with no change is a no-op.

```
ample deploy . --name <app-name> --public --env S3_ENDPOINT=... --env S3_REGION=... --env S3_BUCKET=... --env S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=... --env S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=...
```

7.  Run the pattern self-test(s) from the example (/p/transactional-workflows) and your own acceptance checks for the direct-to-consumer brands workflow.

```
ample logs <deployment_id> --kind build
```

## Tested examples

- **Laravel pattern fixture** (`tests/deploy-canaries/laravel-patterns`): Verified transactional workflows basis for this blueprint.

## How to know it worked

- app responds on its public URL (`/` on the live URL, expect ample canary laravel patterns)
- transactional-workflows self-test from the example (`/p/transactional-workflows` on the live URL, expect see the pattern fixture checks)

## Cost estimate

Estimated 10.00 USD per month (size prices from pricing.toml at build revision ca0b484a7a9957c573a88d3a32dc603c3c10135a).

- app server x1 `s-1vcpu-1gb`: 5.00 USD
- managed PostgreSQL database x1 `s-1vcpu-1gb`: 5.00 USD

Upper-bound monthly price of the tested sizes. Buckets are allocation-priced per quota and not included.

## Verification evidence

- canary_run on 2026-09-20T20:36:21Z at revision `118ad1c6d7d23d4c2ce069254bab9ec9d37cd57b (CLI 118ad1c)`: Laravel pattern fixture deployed on Ample (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); the transactional workflows checks passed: an optimistic version check and an event row written in the same transaction, a stale update rejected, and a history query over the application-owned events (history=2 conflict=rejected). The blueprint's Direct-to-consumer brands schema and workflow below build on that verified basis and were not separately executed. (expires 2027-03-19T20:36:21Z)
