By default only the primary role runs the proxy. To disable the proxy
for that role, you can set `proxy: false` under it.
For other roles they default to not running the proxy, but you can
enable it by setting `proxy: true` for the role, or alternatively
setting a proxy configuration.
The proxy configuration will be merged into the root proxy configuration.
Remove `stop_wait_time` and `readiness_timeout` from the root config
and remove `deploy_timeout` and `drain_timeout` from the proxy config.
Instead we'll just have `deploy_timeout` and `drain_timeout` in the
root config.
For roles that run the proxy, they are passed to the kamal-proxy deploy
command. Once that returns we can assume the container is ready to
shut down.
For other roles, we'll use the `deploy_timeout` when polling the
container to see if it is ready and the `drain_timeout` when stopping
the container.
When overriding the command, docker will still run the entrypoint. We
want to avoid that here - we just want to get the assets out as quickly
as possible. Otherwise maybe something important is going on when we
stop the container.
Add env files back in for secrets - hides them from process lists and
allows you to pick up the latest env file when running
`kamal app exec` without reusing.
Allow hosts to be tagged so we can have host specific env variables.
We might want host specific env variables for things like datacenter
specific tags or testing GC settings on a specific host.
Right now you either need to set up a separate role, or have the app
be host aware.
Now you can define tag env variables and assign those to hosts.
For example:
```
servers:
- 1.1.1.1
- 1.1.1.2: tag1
- 1.1.1.2: tag2
- 1.1.1.3: [ tag1, tag2 ]
env_tags:
tag1:
ENV1: value1
tag2:
ENV2: value2
```
The tag env supports the full env format, allowing you to set secret and
clear values.
Currently the latest container is the one that was created last. But if
we have had a failed deployment that left two containers running that
would not be the one we want. The second container could be in a
restart loop for example.
Instead we want the container that is running the image tagged as
latest. As we now tag as latest after a successful deployment we can
trust that that is a healthy container.
In the case that there is no container running the latest image tag,
we'll fall back to the latest container.
This could happen if the deploy was halted in between the old container
being stopped and the image being tagged as latest.
If you are deploying more than one destination to a host, the latest
tags will conflict, so we'll append the destination to the tag.
The latest tag is used when booting the app or exec-ing a new container.
If a deploy doesn't complete on a host for all roles then we should
probably not be using it, so move the tagging to the end of the boot
process.
This will allow us to filter for containers that have no destination in
cases where we deploy an empty + a non empty destination to the same
host.
To note:
```
\# Containers with a destination label
$ docker ps --filter label=destination
\# Containers with an empty destination label
$ docker ps --filter label=destination=
```
Adding -T to the copy command ensures that the files are copied at the
same level into the target directory whether it exists or not.
That allows us to drop the `/*` which was not picking up hidden files.

During deployments both the old and new containers will be active for a
small period of time. There also may be lagging requests for older CSS
and JS after the deployment.
This can lead to 404s if a request for old assets hits a new container
or visa-versa.
This PR makes sure that both sets of assets are available throughout the
deployment from before the new version of the app is booted.
This can be configured by setting the asset path:
```yaml
asset_path: "/rails/public/assets"
```
The process is:
1. We extract the assets out of the container, with docker run, docker
cp, docker stop. Docker run sets the container command to "sleep" so
this needs to be available in the container.
2. We create an asset volume directory on the host for the new version
of the app on the host and copy the assets in there.
3. If there is a previous deployment we also copy the new assets into
its asset volume and copy the older assets into the new asset volume.
4. We start the new container mapping the asset volume over the top of
the container's asset path.
This means the both the old and new versions have replaced the asset
path with a volume containing both sets of assets and should be able
to serve any request during the deployment. The older assets will
continue to be available until the next deployment.
The go template was concatenating all the mounts into one line. It
happened to work because the mount we are interested was always first.
Fix it to output one mount per line instead.
When replacing a container currently we:
1. Boot the new container
2. Wait for it to become healthy
3. Stop the old container
Traefik will send requests to the old container until it notices that it
is unhealthy. But it may have stopped serving requests before that point
which can result in errors.
To get round that the new boot process is:
1. Create a directory with a single file on the host
2. Boot the new container, mounting the cord file into /tmp and
including a check for the file in the docker healthcheck
3. Wait for it to become healthy
4. Delete the healthcheck file ("cut the cord") for the old container
5. Wait for it to become unhealthy and give Traefik a couple of seconds
to notice
6. Stop the old container
The extra steps ensure that Traefik stops sending requests before the
old container is shutdown.
Setting env variables in the docker arguments requires having them on
the deploy host.
Instead we'll add two new commands `kamal env push` and
`kamal env delete` which will manage copying the environment as .env
files to the remote host.
Docker will pick up the file with `--env-file <path-to-file>`. Env files
will be stored under `<kamal run directory>/env`.
Running `kamal env push` will create env files for each role and
accessory, and traefik if required.
`kamal envify` has been updated to also push the env files.
By avoiding using `kamal envify` and creating the local and remote
secrets manually, you can now avoid accessing secrets needed
for the docker runtime environment locally. You will still need build
secrets.
One thing to note - the Docker doesn't parse the environment variables
in the env file, one result of this is that you can't specify multi-line
values - see https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/12997.
We maybe need to look docker config or docker secrets longer term to get
around this.
Hattip to @kevinmcconnell - this was all his idea.
The version extraction assumed that the version is everything after the
last `-` in the container name. This doesn't work if you deploy a
non-MRSK generated version that contains a `-`.
To fix we'll generate the non version prefix and strip it off. In some
places for this to work we need to make sure to pass the role through.
