Portfolio Website

Setup

Domain Records

Create two A records, one for the web side of the website and one for the api side of the website. Ideally, the records should look something like myportfolio.example.com for the web side and api.myportfolio.example.com, but it is not important.

Reverse Proxy

It doesn't matter what reverse proxy you use (Nginx, Apache, Traefik, Caddy, etc)

Point the web domain to the web port (default: 8910)
Point the api domain to the api port (default: 8911)

SMTP

You will need credentials to authorize sending Email, instructions vary depending on provider (Gmail, Hotmail, etc).

Fix Files Ownership

The files volume in Docker is owned by root, since the portfolio container runs under the node user, file uploads will fail. Run this command to give ownership to the node user:

sudo docker exec -u root portfolio chown -R node:node /home/node/app/api/files_prod

Logging In

Once the container is up and running, head to /login (https://portfolio.example.com/login), default credentials are below
If you would like to change the password, head to /forgot-password (https://portfolio.example.com/forgot-password), the username is admin
- If you correctly set up the Gmail app password, you should receive an email from yourself
- It contains the link needed to change your password

Default Credentials

Username: admin

Password: SMTP_PASSWORD
