Bootstrap rewrites --app client_site to the catalog key (print_forge, etc). CI was still on main, so cloned clients would never hit server-infra.
web_django_template
Gitea template for AI ML Operations client websites (Web Design & Hosting).
Clone this repo (or Use this template), run scripts/bootstrap-client.sh,
set branding + FEATURE_* flags in the secret env file, deploy.
Always included: public site (landing, about, contact) and client portal
(login, dashboard, leads, UTM analytics). Optional catalog add-ons are
separate Django apps. A flag that is off keeps the app out of
INSTALLED_APPS — no models, admin, URLs, or portal nav.

New client
# 1. Create repo from this Gitea template, clone it.
# 2. Rename package + branding placeholders:
./scripts/bootstrap-client.sh acme_site "Acme HVAC" acmehvac.com
# 3. Brand public templates and static/brand/ (logo, colors, copy).
# 4. Secrets on the control node:
mkdir -p ~/Documents/secrets/acme_site
cp .env.prod.example ~/Documents/secrets/acme_site/acme_site_prod.env
# Flip only purchased FEATURE_* flags. Fill provider secrets.
./scripts/validate-env.sh ~/Documents/secrets/acme_site/acme_site_prod.env
# 5. Infra: add `<slug>` to server-infra app_catalog (same key CI uses as
# `--app` after bootstrap, e.g. print_forge). Postgres on 10.0.0.230, NPM.
# Secrets: ~/Documents/secrets/<slug>/<slug>_{prod,beta}.env
# 6. Deploy. Create a portal user (createsuperuser).
Local:
cp .env.example .env
uv sync
cd site
uv run python manage.py migrate
uv run python manage.py runserver
# or: docker compose up

Campaign tracked links (piha.li)
When FEATURE_EMAIL_SMS or FEATURE_DIRECT_MAIL is on, composers auto-insert a
homepage URL with utm_source (slug of SITE_NAME, or UTM_SOURCE),
utm_medium = channel, and utm_campaign = campaign name. Configured
SHORTENER_BASE_URL + SHORTENER_API_TOKEN mint that URL via
url_shortening_service
and put piha.li / beta.piha.li short links in SMS, email hrefs, and postcard QR codes.
Caller secrets (this repo's env file):
SHORTENER_BASE_URL=https://shortener.aimloperations.com
SHORTENER_API_TOKEN=<slug>:<secret>
Operator secrets (url_shortening_service_*): SHORTENER_API_TOKENS=<slug>:<same-secret>
and SHORT_ALLOWED_HOSTS must include the client domain. Mint against the API host,
never piha.li.
