Enter Services

Requirements

Before using this skill, ensure you have:

• SSH keys: Configured via GitHub secrets (see workflow)
• sops: brew install sops (for decrypting secrets)
• Wrangler: npm install -g wrangler
• Node.js: brew install node

Must run from the pollinations repo root.

Architecture Overview

SSH Configuration

Add to ~/.ssh/config:

# Production instance
Host enter-services
  HostName 3.80.56.235
  User ubuntu
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/enter-services-shared-key

# Staging instance
Host enter-services-staging
  HostName 44.222.254.250
  User ubuntu
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/enter-services-staging-key

Quick Commands

Production

# Service status
ssh enter-services "sudo systemctl status text-pollinations.service image-pollinations.service"

# View logs (real-time)
ssh enter-services "sudo journalctl -u text-pollinations.service -f"
ssh enter-services "sudo journalctl -u image-pollinations.service -f"

# Restart services
ssh enter-services "sudo systemctl restart text-pollinations.service image-pollinations.service"

# Recent errors
ssh enter-services "sudo journalctl -u text-pollinations.service -p err -n 20"

Staging

# Service status
ssh enter-services-staging "sudo systemctl status text-pollinations.service image-pollinations.service"

# View logs
ssh enter-services-staging "sudo journalctl -u text-pollinations.service -f"

# Restart
ssh enter-services-staging "sudo systemctl restart text-pollinations.service image-pollinations.service"

Deploy to Production

The GitHub workflow handles production deployments automatically on push to production branch.

Manual deployment:

# 1. SSH into production
ssh enter-services

# 2. Pull and restart
cd /home/ubuntu/pollinations
git pull origin production
cd text.pollinations.ai && npm install
cd ../image.pollinations.ai && npm install
sudo systemctl restart text-pollinations.service image-pollinations.service

Deploy to Staging

Full Setup (New Instance)

# 1. SSH into the new instance
ssh enter-services-staging

# 2. Install build tools (if needed)
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y build-essential

# 3. Clone repo
git clone https://github.com/pollinations/pollinations.git
cd pollinations

# 4. Run setup script
bash enter.pollinations.ai/scripts/setup-services.sh /home/ubuntu/pollinations

# 5. From your LOCAL machine - decrypt and copy env files
cd /path/to/pollinations
sops --output-type dotenv -d text.pollinations.ai/secrets/env.json > /tmp/text.env
sops --output-type dotenv -d image.pollinations.ai/secrets/env.json > /tmp/image.env
scp /tmp/text.env enter-services-staging:/home/ubuntu/pollinations/text.pollinations.ai/.env
scp /tmp/image.env enter-services-staging:/home/ubuntu/pollinations/image.pollinations.ai/.env
rm /tmp/text.env /tmp/image.env

# 6. Restart services
ssh enter-services-staging "sudo systemctl restart text-pollinations.service image-pollinations.service"

Update Staging

ssh enter-services-staging "cd /home/ubuntu/pollinations && git pull && cd text.pollinations.ai && npm install && cd ../image.pollinations.ai && npm install && sudo systemctl restart text-pollinations.service image-pollinations.service"

Deploy Cloudflare Worker (enter.pollinations.ai)

cd enter.pollinations.ai

# Production
npm run deploy:production

# Staging
npm run deploy:staging

Service Locations (on EC2)

• Service definitions: /etc/systemd/system/
• Text service: /home/ubuntu/pollinations/text.pollinations.ai/
• Image service: /home/ubuntu/pollinations/image.pollinations.ai/

Wrangler Configuration

The wrangler.toml contains environment configs:

Troubleshooting

Services won't start

# Check logs
ssh enter-services-staging "sudo journalctl -u text-pollinations.service -n 50"

# Check if .env exists
ssh enter-services-staging "ls -la /home/ubuntu/pollinations/text.pollinations.ai/.env"

# Check node/npm
ssh enter-services-staging "node -v && npm -v"

Missing dependencies

ssh enter-services-staging "cd /home/ubuntu/pollinations/text.pollinations.ai && npm install"

Need build tools

ssh enter-services-staging "sudo apt-get install -y build-essential"

Notes

• Production deploys on push to production branch
• Staging deploys on push to staging branch
• Always test on staging before merging to production
• The Cloudflare Worker (enter.pollinations.ai) routes to EC2 services
• Text service: port 16385, Image service: port 16384
