- Includes health checks and service coordination
- Optimized for Hugging Face Spaces
### 2. **.dockerignore** βœ…
- Excludes `venv/`, `.env`, and other unnecessary files
- Reduces build size and prevents secret leaks
### 3. **README_HF_SPACES.md** βœ…
- Optimized README for Hugging Face Spaces
- Includes Space metadata (emoji, colors, SDK type)
- Quick start guide and feature overview
### 4. **DEPLOY_HF_SPACES.md** βœ…
- Complete step-by-step deployment guide
- Troubleshooting section
- Environment variable configuration
- Best practices
## πŸš€ Quick Deployment Steps
1. **Create Space**: Go to [huggingface.co/new-space](https://huggingface.co/new-space)
- Choose **Docker** as SDK
- Set hardware (CPU basic for testing, upgrade for production)
2. **Push Code**:
```bash
git init
git remote add hf https://huggingface.co/spaces/<username>/<space-name>
git add Dockerfile .dockerignore README_HF_SPACES.md requirements.txt app.py env.example LICENSE README.md assets/ backend/ scripts/
git commit -m "Deploy to HF Spaces"
git push hf main
```
3. **Configure Secrets**: In Space Settings β†’ Repository secrets, add:
- `POSTGRESQL_URL`
- `OLLAMA_URL` (or `GROQ_API_KEY`)
- `OLLAMA_MODEL`
- Optional: `SUPABASE_URL`, `SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY`, etc.
4. **Wait for Build**: Monitor build progress in the Logs tab (5-10 minutes)
5. **Access Your Space**: `https://huggingface.co/spaces/<username>/<space-name>`
## πŸ—οΈ Architecture in Docker
The Dockerfile runs three services:

## πŸ“‹ What's Included
βœ… **Dockerfile** - Production-ready multi-service container
βœ… **.dockerignore** - Excludes unnecessary files
βœ… **README_HF_SPACES.md** - Space-optimized documentation
βœ… **DEPLOY_HF_SPACES.md** - Complete deployment guide
βœ… **Health checks** - Service readiness verification
βœ… **Error handling** - Graceful service startup
βœ… **Environment variables** - Configurable via HF Space settings
## πŸ”§ Configuration
All configuration is done via environment variables in Hugging Face Space settings:
### Required
- `POSTGRESQL_URL` - Database connection
- `OLLAMA_URL` + `OLLAMA_MODEL` - OR `GROQ_API_KEY`
### Optional
- `SUPABASE_URL` + `SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY` - Production storage
- `GOOGLE_SEARCH_API_KEY` + `GOOGLE_SEARCH_CX_ID` - Web search
- `MCP_PORT`, `API_PORT` - Service ports (defaults work)
## πŸ“š Next Steps
1. **Review Files**: Check all created files match your needs
2. **Test Locally**: Build Docker image locally to test:
```bash
docker build -t integrachat .
docker run -p 7860:7860 -p 8000:8000 -p 8900:8900 integrachat
```
3. **Deploy**: Follow steps in `DEPLOY_HF_SPACES.md`
4. **Monitor**: Check logs and analytics after deployment
## 🎯 Key Features
- βœ… **Multi-service orchestration** - All services run in one container
- βœ… **Health checks** - Services wait for each other to be ready
- βœ… **Error handling** - Graceful failures and logging
- βœ… **Production-ready** - Optimized for Hugging Face Spaces
- βœ… **Configurable** - All settings via environment variables
## πŸ’‘ Tips
1. **First Build**: May take 10-15 minutes (downloads dependencies)
2. **Subsequent Builds**: Faster (cached layers)
3. **Logs**: Check Logs tab for detailed startup information
4. **Database**: Ensure PostgreSQL is accessible from HF servers
5. **LLM**: Consider Groq API for cloud-based LLM (no local server needed)
