Finally got the Dokku Ruby on Rails example app working 😭 Apparently I just needed to reboot the droplet? `curl` to my droplet's IP wasn't working, `dokku ports:list ruby-getting-started` didn't show it listening on port 80, `dokku ports:add ruby-getting-started http:80:5000` resulted in an error saying nginx wasn't running. Rebooting seemed to fix it. Next up is trying to deploy my Go backend with Dokku. Destroyed the ruby demo dokku app. Resized my DO droplet to the $6/mo one.

Continuing to look into the CORS error I'm getting when my frontend tries to make an API request to my backend; it seems my backend dokku app wasn't deployed for some reason; destroyed my existing go dokku app and recreated it and then struggled with an error for a while before realizing I had the same issue a few days ago and the solution was to run `dokku builder:set backend-app build-dir backend`; now getting an error saying the download for my specified version of Go is "unknown to the buildpack"; after much trial-and-error I realized the problem was that Dokku has a stupid error message that makes it sound like it has already automatically chosen a Go buildpack when in fact it has not. I was additionally getting confused because I was seeing Dokku installing Go and not realizing that was because of my +heroku instruction in my go.mod file rather than Dokku automatically using a Go buildpack. The solution was to specify a Go buildpack for my app with `dokku buildpacks:add <my-app> heroku/go`. Now getting a new error: "Failed to connect to database". Fixed it by switching my code to use the `DATABASE_URL` environment variable that Dokku creates for your code to connect to the db. My `git push dokku main` finally succeeded, but I'm still getting a CORS error. Eventually figured out it was because my Dokku app name was `whatdo-backend` when I had forgotten that that would also be the name of the subdomain, so I had to delete the app and recreate it with the name `api`. I also created a `/ping` health-check URL to help me debug this more quickly. I'm now getting a 521 error, I think maybe because Dokku is running on http and Cloudflare is reaching out via https?

Dokku: Starting going through this guide: dokku.com/docs/deployment/app… Got stuck for ~40mins on `git push dokku main` b/c I hadn't run the `git remote add dokku <url>` command correctly: I had to specify my droplet's IP instead of my domain name (b/c cloudflare blocks port 22), I wasn't supposed to start the URL with ssh://, and I somehow ended up with the wrong IP in the URL at one point.

Continuing to try to get the dokku example app working. I'm getting an error when I visit saying "Web server is down" but it's not clear to me where to look for additional information about what exactly the problem is. The Digital Ocean logs for the subdomain app don't show any errors or even requests.

Started learning Dokku / trying to set it up with Digital Ocean. ty @ben ... joined the dokku discord; went through this guide: dokku.com/docs/getting-starte… ; switched my whatdo domain in DigitalOcean to point to the new dokku droplet ; asked for help in the forum to understand what it means for "the web UI [to be] submitted": github.com/dokku/dokku/discus… ; I think it's referring to the DO UI for creating the new droplet ; next step for tomorrow: go through this guide: dokku.com/docs/deployment/app…

My next goal is to get postgres working locally instead of sqlite b/c apparently it's easier to use postgres on dokku(?). Installed postgres on my macbook using postgresapp.com, it was so easy 😭 Connected GoLand to a new postgres db for my backend; got my backend code working with the postgres db; committed and pushed my code. Next step is to continue with this guide: shellbear.me/blog/go-dokku-de…

Continuing to try to get Dokku working with a monorepo; I think I got past my last problem of how to deploy both apps by running on the server `dokku builder:set backend-app build-dir backend` (and similar for the frontend); now I'm seeing a new error when I try to deploy the frontend app: `Two different lockfiles found: package-lock.json and yarn.lock`; I seemed to fix it by deleting the yarn.lock. New error: "Missing script: start"; fixed that by adding a 'start' entry to my package.json. New error: "Cannot find module '@vitejs/plugin-vue'"; maybe because it's listed as a devDependency? I found this SO post where the guy said he ended up just putting his frontend on Netlify, so maybe I'll try that instead: stackoverflow.com/a/62455021/… ChatGPT is saying the way to do it is to deploy my API at api.mydomain.com and then direct traffic at other subdomains to Netlify to handle frontend requests. So I'll try that tomorrow.

Struggled to incorporate the Line "echo bot" code into my existing Huma Go backend framework code, so I just YOLO'd it and copied the example code into my `main.go` for the purpose of seeing if I can get it working...ran into an error when pushing to Dokku, it seems to be because I didn't set the Line-related env variables before pushing...set those vars on my Dokku server...clicked the Line 'Verify' button for the callback URL and got a 404, so I now need to look into what happened...I think the issue is that the echo bot code assumes I'll use the DefaultServeMux, but I'm actually using a chi Mux. The key line difference is `log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":"+port, r))`, where the example has `nil` instead of `r`...YOLO'd it again by just disabling the router I had gotten working, just to see if the webhook will work, and got a Success when I clicked the Verify button...next up is to either clean up this mess I've made in my code or keep pushing forwards and try to get the ChatGPT part working.

Continuing to try to get my dokku API to work, looking into an `ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED` error. I posted for help on the dokku github: github.com/dokku/dokku/issues… I suspect the issue may be caused by my not having SSL set up but I'm not sure. I can't even find the logs where the refused connection is being logged.

Finally got Dokku working with my frontend. Documented my issues here: github.com/dokku/dokku/issues… Tomorrow: figure out what to do next. Maybe look at my Google Tasks, old Trello, etc.
