Bootstrap Caddy

Bootstrap Caddy

Register a project in the local subdomain routing system (https://<project>.localhost via Caddy + dnsmasq).

Step 1: Parse arguments

First word = project name. Optional second = port override. Empty → AskUserQuestion (don't infer from context).

Step 2: Check prerequisites

test -f $HOME/.config/dev-routing/Caddyfile && test -f $HOME/.config/dev-routing/ports.json && echo "OK" || echo "MISSING"

MISSING → stop: "Dev routing infrastructure not found at $HOME/.config/dev-routing/. Set it up via dotfiles first."

Step 3: Read port registry

Read $HOME/.config/dev-routing/ports.json:

{"nextPort": 5200, "projects": {"name": 5200, ...}}

Project already exists → report https://<project>.localhost → localhost:<port> and stop.

Step 4: Assign port

User-provided → verify no collision. No port → use nextPort.

Step 5: Update port registry

Add project + port. If auto-assigned, increment nextPort. Write back.

Step 6: Create Caddy site config

Write $HOME/.config/dev-routing/sites/<project>.caddy:

<project>.localhost {
    reverse_proxy localhost:<port>
}

Step 7: Configure project dev server

Skip if $HOME/src/<project> doesn't exist — just report port for later.

If exists:

1. vite.config.ts — ensure server: { port: Number(process.env.DEV_PORT) || undefined }. Skip if present, replace if hardcoded.
2. .env (gitignored) — append DEV_PORT=<port> if missing.
3. .env.example (committed) — append # DEV_PORT=5173 if missing.

Bun auto-loads .env — no extra setup needed.

Step 8: Reload Caddy

caddy reload --config $HOME/.config/dev-routing/Caddyfile 2>&1 || caddy start --config $HOME/.config/dev-routing/Caddyfile 2>&1

Step 9: Report

• Dev URL: https://<project>.localhost
• Backend port: <port>
• Project configured: yes / no (not found)
• For .env: DEV_PORT=<port>
