Coolify Deployment Guide for CustomGPT Portal

This guide explains how to deploy your CustomGPT Portal using Coolify with Vite.

Prerequisites

• Home server with Docker installed
• Coolify set up on your server
• Git repository access

Project Structure

Here's the structure of the Vite project:

custom-gpt-portal/
├── index.html
├── style.css
├── main.js
├── vite.config.js
├── package.json
├── Dockerfile
├── nginx.conf
└── docker-compose.yml

Deployment Steps

1. Create a Git Repository

1. Create a new repository on GitHub or another Git provider
2. Upload all the project files to the repository
3. Make sure to commit and push all changes

2. Setting Up Coolify

1. Access your Coolify dashboard at http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:8000
2. Login with your credentials

3. Connecting Your Repository

1. In Coolify dashboard, go to "Sources" → "Add new" → "GitHub" (or your Git provider)
2. Follow the authorization process to connect your Git account
3. Select the repository you created for the CustomGPT Portal

4. Creating a Deployment Service

1. In Coolify dashboard, navigate to "Resources" → "New Service"
2. Select "Docker" as the service type
3. Choose your repository from the connected sources
4. Configure the build settings:
   • Build Method: Dockerfile
   • Docker Compose: No (unless you want to use the docker-compose.yml file)
   • Port: 8080
   • Publish Port: Choose a port for external access (e.g., 8080)

5. Configure Environment Variables (Optional)

If needed, you can add environment variables in the Coolify dashboard:

1. Go to your service settings
2. Find "Environment Variables" section
3. Add any required variables

6. Deploy Your Service

1. Click "Deploy" button in your service dashboard
2. Coolify will automatically:
   • Pull your code from the repository
   • Build the Docker image using your Dockerfile
   • Start the container with the specified settings

7. Access Your CustomGPT Portal

Once deployment is complete, access your portal at:

• http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:PUBLISHED_PORT

Updating Your Portal

When you want to add new CustomGPTs or make other changes:

1. Update the main.js file with new GPT entries
2. Commit and push changes to your repository
3. Trigger a redeployment in Coolify:
   • Either set up automatic deployments on push
   • Or manually click "Redeploy" in the Coolify dashboard

Setting Up Automatic Deployments (Optional)

1. In Coolify, go to your service settings
2. Enable "Auto Deploy"
3. Configure webhook in your Git repository to notify Coolify of changes

Transitioning to LibreChat

To replace OpenAI GPTs with LibreChat instances:

1. Deploy LibreChat using Coolify:

   # Sample docker-compose.yml for LibreChat
   version: '3'
   services:
     librechat:
       image: ghcr.io/danny-avila/librechat:latest
       environment:
         - OPENAI_API_KEY=your_key_here
         # Add other env variables as needed
       ports:
         - "3080:3080"
       restart: unless-stopped

2. For each CustomGPT you want to replace:

   • Create a custom preset in LibreChat
   • Update the URL in your portal's main.js to point to your LibreChat instance
   • Redeploy the portal

Security Considerations

• Coolify provides built-in HTTPS with Let's Encrypt
• Consider setting up authentication for your portal
• Regularly update your Coolify instance and deployed applications
• Keep your API keys and credentials secure
