verae-ops — install, run, maintain

How to stand up Verae Time × Zapier on Docker, Proxmox, generic VMs, or dedicated hardware, and how to link dependent services.

Forgejo: https://git.georgelambert.org/marchon/verae-ops
Clone: ssh://git@git.georgelambert.org:2223/marchon/verae-ops.git
Catalog: https://zapier.georgelambert.org/packages/verae-ops/README.pdf

This is the operations repo. Application code lives in the other independent git repositories.

Reading order

  1. GETTING-STARTED.md — install, first-up, monitor (read this first)
  2. 01-dependencies.md — what must exist, who talks to whom
  3. 02-docker.md — Compose (NATS 3-node cluster + HTTPS edges)
  4. 03-proxmox.md — LXC / QEMU VMs
  5. 04-virtual-servers.md — cloud or hypervisor VMs
  6. 05-dedicated-hardware.md — bare metal (NS1-style)
  7. 06-linking-services.md — env vars, URLs, replica floors
  8. 07-maintenance.md — upgrade, backup, fleet, NATS

Non-negotiables

Rule Why
Zapier cloud → HTTPS only (zappier-edge) Never NATS, never api.veraetime.net
NATS binds loopback or a private docker/VM net Not on the public NIC
Tree-node min 3, pause does not count Bulk Merkle lookups
Private keys stay on disk; git stores paths machines.json identityFile
Operator console is loopback :3850 Not a public site

Quick lab (one machine)

git clone ssh://git@git.georgelambert.org:2223/marchon/verae-ops.git
cd verae-ops
docker compose up --build

Then: zappier http://127.0.0.1:3000/ middleware http://127.0.0.1:3100/health NATS monitoring http://127.0.0.1:8222/

Production layout is three NATS nodes + fleet-spread workers; see 02-docker.md and 05-dedicated-hardware.md.
