+# py-dvt-ate Deployment
+
+Deploy the DVT Simulation Platform dashboard with Cloudflare Tunnel for public access.
+
+## Idle Auto-Shutdown
+
+The app automatically shuts down after a period of inactivity to save resources.
+
+**Configuration:**
+```bash
+# In .env or docker-compose.yml
+IDLE_TIMEOUT_MINUTES=30  # Shutdown after 30 min idle (0 = disabled)
+```
+
+**Behaviour:**
+- App tracks activity when someone has the dashboard open
+- After `IDLE_TIMEOUT_MINUTES` with no viewers, the container exits
+- nginx will show a 502 error until the container is restarted
+
+**Restart Options:**
+
+1. **Manual restart** (simplest):
+   ```bash
+   docker start py-dvt-ate-streamlit
+   ```
+
+2. **Auto-restart on poll** (uncomment `wakeup` service in docker-compose.yml):
+   - Checks every 30 seconds if streamlit is stopped
+   - Automatically restarts it
+   - Adds ~30 second delay before app is available
+
+3. **Always running** (set `IDLE_TIMEOUT_MINUTES=0`):
+   - App never auto-shuts down
+   - Uses minimal CPU when idle (~0.1%)
+   - Memory stays allocated (~300-400MB)
+
+## Architecture
+
+```

+Cloudflare Edge (dvt-demo.kschappell.com)
+    ↓ (tunnel)

+    └── reports/           # Generated PDFs
+```
+
+## Setup
+
+### 1. Create Cloudflare Tunnel
+
+1. Go to [Cloudflare Zero Trust Dashboard](https://one.dash.cloudflare.com/)
+2. Navigate to **Networks** → **Tunnels**
+3. Click **Create a tunnel**
+4. Select **Cloudflared** as the connector
+5. Name it `py-dvt-ate` (or similar)
+6. Copy the tunnel token (long string starting with `eyJ...`)
+
+### 2. Configure Public Hostname
+
+Still in the tunnel configuration:
+
+1. Go to the **Public Hostname** tab
+2. Add a public hostname:
+   - **Subdomain:** `dvt-demo`
+   - **Domain:** `kschappell.com`
+   - **Service Type:** `HTTP`
+   - **URL:** `nginx:80`
+
+This routes `dvt-demo.kschappell.com` → nginx container → Streamlit app.
+
+### 3. Deploy
+
+The build requires access to the full py-dvt-ate source code. Two options:
+
+**Option A: Clone repo to TrueNAS (recommended)**
+
+```bash
+# Clone repo to apps directory
+cd /mnt/fast-pool/apps/portfolio-demos
+git clone https://gitea.kschappell.com/kschappell/py-dvt-ate.git
+
+# Create data directory and .env
+cd py-dvt-ate/deploy
+mkdir -p data
+cp .env.example .env
+nano .env  # Add your CLOUDFLARE_TUNNEL_TOKEN
+
+# Build and start
+docker compose up -d --build
+```
+
+**Option B: Build image locally, transfer to TrueNAS**
+
+```bash
+# On development machine
+cd /path/to/py-dvt-ate
+docker build -t py-dvt-ate:latest .
+docker save py-dvt-ate:latest | gzip > py-dvt-ate.tar.gz
+
+# Transfer to TrueNAS, then:
+docker load < py-dvt-ate.tar.gz
+
+# Update docker-compose.yml to use image instead of build:
+#   streamlit:
+#     image: py-dvt-ate:latest
+```
+
+**Check logs:**
+
+```bash
+docker compose logs -f
+```
+
+### 4. Verify
+
+```bash
+# Check tunnel is connected (in Cloudflare dashboard, tunnel should show "Healthy")
+
+# Test the endpoint
+curl https://dvt-demo.kschappell.com/health
+
+# Test iframe headers
+curl -I https://dvt-demo.kschappell.com | grep -i frame
+# Should NOT show X-Frame-Options (we strip it)
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Tunnel not connecting
+
+Check cloudflared logs:
+```bash
+docker compose logs cloudflared
+```
+
+Common issues:
+- Invalid token (regenerate in Cloudflare dashboard)
+- Network/firewall blocking outbound connections
+
+### Streamlit not loading in iframe
+
+Check nginx is stripping headers:
+```bash
+curl -I https://dvt-demo.kschappell.com
+```
+
+Should see:
+- No `X-Frame-Options` header
+- `Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self' https://kschappell.com ...`
+
+### WebSocket errors
+
+Check browser console for WebSocket connection failures. Ensure nginx WebSocket config is correct and timeouts are sufficient.
+
+## Updating
+
+```bash
+cd /mnt/fast-pool/apps/portfolio-demos/py-dvt-ate/deploy
+git pull
+docker compose up -d --build
+```
+
+## Stopping
+
+```bash
+docker compose down
+```
