- Auto-create SSH config entry for passwordless core server access
- Add pre-flight SSH connectivity check before registration
- Verify docker-provider and sablier-middleware files are created on core
- Display explicit success/failure messages with troubleshooting steps
- Create placeholder routes.yml for Traefik dynamic config
- Verify Traefik container starts successfully after deployment
- Add container status check after Traefik deployment
Fixes issues where remote server registration silently failed and
Traefik deployment did not verify configuration files existed.
Major features:
- Automated SSH key setup between remote and core servers
- Docker TLS configuration with shared CA certificates
- Automatic deployment of Dockge, Traefik, Sablier, and Infrastructure stacks
- Copy all stacks (except core) to remote server for on-demand deployment
- New standalone Traefik stack for remote server container discovery
- Locale-aware SSH/SCP commands to handle Raspberry Pi warnings
- Variable expansion support in .env files (${VAR} references)
- Comprehensive error handling and verbose deployment logging
Technical improvements:
- setup_ssh_key_to_core() - Automated RSA 4096-bit key generation and installation
- setup_multi_server_tls() - Fetch shared CA from core server via SSH
- copy_all_stacks_for_remote() - Deploy all stacks except core
- deploy_traefik_stack() - Local Traefik for container discovery
- Enhanced localization with envsubst support
- Docker network creation (traefik-network, homelab-network)
- Password authentication with special character handling
Fixes:
- Fixed SSH key path handling for non-root users
- Fixed SCP exit code checking (was checking grep instead of scp)
- Fixed CA file detection with proper test commands
- Removed unnecessary prepare_deployment() function call
- Added ACTUAL_USER variable initialization for remote deployments
Added Python script to automatically merge multi-line Authelia secrets
(JWT_SECRET, SESSION_SECRET, STORAGE_ENCRYPTION_KEY) during core
deployment. This prevents envsubst from reading truncated values when
the .env file contains accidental line breaks.
Fixes Authelia startup errors:
- 'encryption key does not appear to be valid for this database'
- Invalid URL parsing due to incomplete variable expansion
- Move users_database.yml template from config/ to secrets/ folder
- Authelia configuration expects users file at /secrets/users_database.yml
- Replace hardcoded values in configuration.yml with variables:
- jwt_secret, session secret, storage encryption_key
- Domain references (kelinreij.duckdns.org → ${DOMAIN})
- Update deploy script to not move config files (already in subdirectories)
- Fix sed command path to target config/configuration.yml
- Remove unnecessary mkdir and mv commands from deploy_core()
This ensures Authelia uses the correctly generated file with user credentials.
