Replace uv package manager with standard pip for dependency management.
Switch base image from debian:bookworm-slim to python:3.12-slim to include
Python runtime by default.
Key changes:
- Remove uv installation and configuration
- Use requirements.txt instead of pyproject.toml/uv.lock
- Install dependencies with pip instead of uv sync
- Move collectstatic and migrate from build-time to runtime in CMD
- Simplify gunicorn command invocation
This simplifies the build process and makes the image more portable by
using standard Python tooling. Running migrations and collectstatic at
container startup ensures they execute against the correct database and
storage backend.
- Replace pip with UV for faster dependency installation
- Switch base image from python:3.11-slim to debian:bookworm-slim
- Add SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER for production SSL proxy support
- Optimize Docker layer caching by copying dependency files first
- Move database migration to build time for faster container startup
- Enhance Gunicorn logging with access and error log streams
- Update dependency management from requirements.txt to pyproject.toml
These changes improve build performance, production security, and
container startup time while modernizing the dependency management
workflow.
- Set ALLOWED_HOSTS to accept all hosts for easier local testing
- Update Docker port from 8080 to 8000 (Django default)
- Adjust Gunicorn binding to match new port configuration
This simplifies local development setup by using standard Django
conventions and removing host restrictions. The previous specific
host configuration can be restored for production deployment.
- Replace old sslip.io subdomain with new one (r0g84wkoc4cwoo0gckss88ow)
- Remove redundant IP address entries (72.61.138.80, 127.0.0.1)
- Keep localhost for local development
This updates the Django allowed hosts configuration to use the new
SSL.io subdomain while simplifying the host list by removing
redundant entries already covered by localhost.
Update requirements.txt with modified package versions or new dependencies. The specific changes are not visible due to file encoding, but this updates the project's dependency specifications.
- Replace PostgreSQL with SQLite as default database backend
- Comment out PostgreSQL configuration for potential future use
- Update Docker exposed port from 8000 to 8080
- Update Gunicorn bind address to match new port
This simplifies the deployment setup by removing the PostgreSQL
dependency and aligns the application port with common alternatives
to port 8000.
Update Dockerfile to use port 8000 instead of 8081 for the Django
application. This change affects both the EXPOSE directive and the
Gunicorn binding configuration to standardize on the conventional
default port for web applications.
Update the Dockerfile to use port 8081 instead of 8080 for the application.
This includes:
- Modified EXPOSE directive to port 8081
- Updated Gunicorn bind address to 0.0.0.0:8081
Ensures consistency between the exposed port and the actual port the
application binds to when running inside the container.
Update Dockerfile to expose and bind Gunicorn to port 8080 instead of 8000. This aligns the container port configuration with the expected deployment environment requirements.
Changes:
- Update EXPOSE directive to port 8080
- Update Gunicorn bind address to 0.0.0.0:8080
Add comprehensive API documentation for user management endpoints including profile updates, user listing, and admin user management features. Update appointment model to include additional status options (completed, cancelled) and add max_length constraint to email field. Change appointment creation endpoint to require user authentication instead of being public.
Changes:
- Add API docs for update_profile, get_profile, all-users endpoints
- Add API docs for activate-deactivate-user and delete-user admin endpoints
- Update appointment creation to require authentication
- Add 'completed' and 'cancelled' status options to Appointment model
- Add max_length constraint to EncryptedEmailField
- Regenerate initial migration with updated model definitions
Replace hardcoded localhost URLs (http://127.0.0.1:8000) in API root
endpoint documentation with request.build_absolute_uri() calls. This
makes the API documentation URLs environment-agnostic and ensures they
reflect the actual domain/host being used to access the API, improving
portability across development, staging, and production environments.
Replace SQLite with PostgreSQL as the default database backend.
Database connection settings are now configured via environment
variables (POSTGRES_DB, POSTGRES_USER, POSTGRES_PASSWORD,
POSTGRES_HOST, POSTGRES_PORT) for better scalability and
production readiness.
- Remove strip_tags usage and use explicit fallback text for HTML emails
- Use named parameters in EmailMultiAlternatives for better clarity
- Add fail_silently=False to email.send() for explicit error handling
- Rename variables (html_content -> html_message, email_msg -> email)
- Remove action buttons from appointment email templates
These changes improve code readability and provide a clearer fallback
message for non-HTML email clients instead of relying on stripped HTML.
- Enable meetings app in INSTALLED_APPS and add URL routing
- Switch from PostgreSQL to SQLite for default database configuration
- Remove meetings directory from .gitignore
- Move API root endpoint from users app to main URL configuration
- Remove HIPAA-specific email and compliance settings (EMAIL_ENCRYPTION_KEY, HIPAA_EMAIL_CONFIG, BAA_VERIFICATION)
- Add SITE_NAME and ENCRYPTION_KEY environment variables
- Regenerate initial user migrations
These changes simplify the development setup by using SQLite as the default database and removing complex compliance configurations while enabling the core meetings functionality.
Add comprehensive HIPAA compliance features and OTP-based authentication:
- Configure HIPAA email settings with AES-256 encryption standard
- Add secure portal URL and BAA verification configuration
- Implement OTP verification for user registration and password reset
- Add user model fields for email verification and password reset OTPs
- Configure templates directory in Django settings
- Add authentication flow endpoints with detailed documentation
- Update dependencies to support new security features
- Reorganize .gitignore for better structure
These changes ensure HIPAA compliance for healthcare data handling
with 6-year audit retention, secure email communications, and
multi-factor authentication capabilities.
