🐳 Docker & Deployment
Docker Setup
- Dockerfile - Python 3.11 slim image, production optimized
- docker-compose.yml - Two services: MariaDB + Flask app
- docker-entrypoint.sh - Automatic DB initialization and health checks
Services
-
MariaDB (mariadb:11.0)
- Port: 3306
- Persistent volume:
mariadb_data - Health checks enabled
-
Flask App (custom Python image)
- Port: 8080
- Volumes: code, logs, uploads, backups
- Depends on MariaDB
- Health checks enabled
Quick Deploy
./quick-deploy.sh
📊 Database Schema
Tables (4 tables)
- users - User accounts (id, username, email, role, active status)
- user_credentials - Password hashes (separate for security)
- quality_inspections - Inspection records
- application_settings - App configuration
Features
- Foreign key relationships
- Timestamps (created_at, updated_at)
- UTF8MB4 encoding for international support
- Appropriate indexing
🔐 Security Features
Implemented
- ✅ Secure password hashing (SHA256)
- ✅ SQL injection prevention (parameterized queries)
- ✅ CSRF protection (Flask default)
- ✅ Secure session cookies (HTTPOnly)
- ✅ Login required for protected routes
- ✅ User role tracking
- ✅ Connection pooling prevents exhaustion
- ✅ Error messages don't expose system info
Production Considerations
- Change default admin password immediately
- Use strong SECRET_KEY
- Enable HTTPS/TLS
- Configure CORS if needed
- Implement rate limiting
- Add audit logging
- Enable database encryption
📈 Scalability & Performance
Performance Features
- Connection pooling (10 connections default)
- Request/response compression ready
- Static file caching via CDN ready
- Rotating file logging
- Bootstrap CDN for fast CSS loading
Scaling Path
- Load balancer (Nginx/HAProxy)
- Multiple app instances
- Shared database
- Redis caching (future)
- Elasticsearch (future)

🔄 Development Workflow
Adding a New Module
- Create
app/modules/new_module/directory - Create
__init__.pyandroutes.py - Register in
app/__init__.py - Create templates in
app/templates/modules/new_module/
Database Operations
# Query data
result = execute_query(sql, params, fetch_one=True)
# Insert/Update/Delete
affected = execute_update(sql, params)
Creating Templates
All templates extend base.html automatically including:
- Navigation bar
- Flash messages
- Footer
- Bootstrap 5 & Font Awesome icons
