Deployment Steps
Ensure Environment Variables are Set (HF Spaces Secrets)
- APPWRITE_ENDPOINT
- APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID
- APPWRITE_API_KEY
- APPWRITE_DATABASE_ID
Push Code to GitHub β (Already done)
- Latest 4 commits pushed
Trigger HF Spaces Redeploy
- Restart the space or
- Push a new commit to main branch
Verify Startup Logs
- Stage 1: Create migrations
- Stage 2: Run migrations
- Stage 3: Setup Appwrite collections
- Stage 4: Seed initial data
- Stage 5: Collect static files
- Stage 6: Start Gunicorn server
Test in Production
- Visit homepage
- Check formations page
- Test specialite detail pages
- Verify data is displaying
Rollback Plan
If issues occur:
Code Rollback
git revert HEAD~3 # Revert Appwrite commits git push origin mainData Recovery
- Check Appwrite console for existing collections
- Can manually delete collections if needed
- Re-seeding will happen on next startup
Quick Diagnostics
- Check HF Spaces logs for errors
- Verify environment variables set
- Test Appwrite connectivity:
python manage.py shellβfrom enise_site.appwrite_db import get_appwrite_dbβget_appwrite_db().test_connection()
Post-Deployment
