- Merge docker-compose.nexus.yml into compose.yml as --profile registry - Drop docker-compose.smoke.yml, docker-compose.test.yml (deprecated), and docker-compose.stack.yml - Rename to compose.yml (Docker Compose default; no -f flag needed) - build apps / deploy now derive buildable services from compose.yml directly instead of hardcoded all_apps/service_map in commands.json — covers all 29 buildable services automatically Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

MetaBuilder Deployment
Build and deploy the full MetaBuilder stack locally using Docker.
All commands go through a single Python CLI: python3 deployment.py --help
Prerequisites
- Docker Desktop with BuildKit enabled
- Python 3.9+
- Add
localhost:5050to Docker Desktop insecure registries: Settings → Docker Engine →"insecure-registries": ["localhost:5050"]
Build & Deploy Order
Step 1 — Start Local Registries (Nexus + Artifactory)
All base image builds pull dependencies through local registries. Start these first.
cd deployment
docker compose -f docker-compose.nexus.yml up -d
Wait ~2 minutes for init containers to finish, then populate:
python3 deployment.py nexus push # Docker images → Nexus
python3 deployment.py npm publish-patches # Patched npm packages → Nexus
conan remote add artifactory http://localhost:8092/artifactory/api/conan/conan-local
| Service | URL | Credentials |
|---|---|---|
| Nexus UI | http://localhost:8091 | admin / nexus |
| Artifactory | http://localhost:8092 | admin / password |
| npm group | http://localhost:8091/repository/npm-group/ | — |
| Conan2 | http://localhost:8092/artifactory/api/conan/conan-local | — |
| Docker repo | localhost:5050 | — |
Step 2 — Build Base Images
python3 deployment.py build base # Build all (skips existing)
python3 deployment.py build base --force # Rebuild all
python3 deployment.py build base node-deps # Build a specific image
python3 deployment.py build base --list # List available images
Build order (dependencies respected automatically):
base-apt— system packages (no deps)base-conan-deps— C++ dependencies (needs base-apt)base-android-sdk— Android SDK (needs base-apt)base-node-deps— npm workspace dependencies (standalone, needs Nexus running)base-pip-deps— Python dependencies (standalone)devcontainer— full dev environment (needs all above)
Step 3 — Build App Images
python3 deployment.py build apps # Build all (skips existing)
python3 deployment.py build apps --force # Rebuild all
python3 deployment.py build apps workflowui # Build specific app
python3 deployment.py build apps --sequential # Lower RAM usage
Step 4 — Start the Stack
python3 deployment.py stack up # Core services
python3 deployment.py stack up --monitoring # + Prometheus, Grafana, Loki
python3 deployment.py stack up --media # + Media daemon, Icecast, HLS
python3 deployment.py stack up --all # Everything
Portal: http://localhost (nginx welcome page with links to all apps)
Quick Deploy (rebuild + restart specific apps)
python3 deployment.py deploy codegen # Build and deploy codegen
python3 deployment.py deploy codegen pastebin # Multiple apps
python3 deployment.py deploy --all # All apps

Compose Files
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
docker-compose.nexus.yml |
Local registries (Nexus + Artifactory) |
compose.yml |
Full application stack |
docker-compose.test.yml |
Integration test services |
docker-compose.smoke.yml |
Smoke test environment |
Init Container Scripts
| Script | Purpose |
|---|---|
nexus-init.py |
Nexus repository setup (mounted into Docker init container) |
artifactory-init.py |
Artifactory repository setup (mounted into Docker init container) |
These are container entrypoints used by docker-compose.nexus.yml, not user-facing scripts.
Troubleshooting
npm install fails with "proxy" error during base-node-deps build
→ Nexus/Verdaccio isn't running. The .npmrc references localhost:4873 for @esbuild-kit scoped packages. Start registries first (Step 1) or comment out the scoped registry in .npmrc.
Build takes 20+ minutes then fails on npm install → Same as above. The Dockerfile now has a pre-flight registry check that fails fast with actionable instructions instead of retrying for 20 minutes.
Docker image push rejected
→ Add localhost:5050 to Docker Desktop insecure registries and restart Docker Desktop.
Nexus not ready after docker compose up -d
→ Nexus takes ~2 minutes to start. The nexus-init container waits for the healthcheck automatically. Check with: docker compose -f docker-compose.nexus.yml logs -f nexus-init
