## Build & Configuration
### Prerequisites
No specific prerequisites are required for this stack.
This stack requires a Docker Swarm manager and worker nodes.
### Volume Setup
```bash
mkdir -p /DockerVol/mealie
chown -R mealie:mealie /DockerVol/mealie
mkdir -p /DockerVol/mealie:/app/data
chown -R 1001:1001 /DockerVol/mealie
```
### Environment Variables
Generate OpenSSL secrets for env variables:
```bash
# generate: openssl rand -hex 32

### Accessing mealie
| Service | URL | Purpose |
|---------|-----|---------|
- **Caddy:** recipe.netgrimoire.com
- **Internal only**
|- **Recipe Manager:** recipe.netgrimoire.com |
- **Caddy Reverse Proxy Configuration:**
### Primary Use Cases
To use Mealie, navigate to the `recipe.netgrimoire.com` URL and log in with your credentials. From there, you can manage recipes, users, and other features of the application.
To use this service in NetGrimoire, log in with the default credentials and start creating recipes.
### NetGrimoire Integrations
Mealie integrates with other services in NetGrimoire through environment variables and labels. Specifically, it connects to Authentik for OIDC authentication and uses the `kuma` service for monitoring.
This stack integrates with Authentik for OIDC authentication.

## Operations
### Monitoring
[kuma.recipe.http.name: Mealie]
```bash
docker stack services mealie
docker service logs -f mealie
docker service logs -f mealie | grep kuma.*
```
### Backups
Critical: Ensure that the `/DockerVol/mealie` volume is backed up regularly to prevent data loss. Reconstructable: TheMealie application can be rebuilt from the `swarm/stack/mealie` directory.
Critical data is stored in /DockerVol/mealie/. Make sure to back up this directory regularly.
### Restore

## Common Failures
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---------|-------|-----|
| Service not running | Docker stack deploy failed | Check the `resolved.yml` file for errors and try again. |
| Caddy reverse proxy issues | Caddy configuration incorrect | Check the Caddy labels and configuration files for errors and update as needed. |
1. **Symptom:** Service does not start.
**Cause:** Docker Swarm network issues.
**Fix:** Check the Caddy reverse proxy configuration and ensure that the service is deployed to the correct node.
2. **Symptom:** Recipes cannot be imported.
**Cause:** Missing Authentik client ID or secret.
**Fix:** Update the OIDC provider settings in the .env file to include the missing credentials.
3. **Symptom:** Users are unable to login.
**Cause:** Incorrect PUID or PGID setting.
**Fix:** Check the environment variables and ensure that they match the expected values.
4. **Symptom:** Caddy reverse proxy does not forward requests correctly.
**Cause:** Inconsistent Caddy configuration.
**Fix:** Review the Caddy labels and ensure that they are set to the correct values.
5. **Symptom:** Service is stuck in a restart loop.
**Cause:** Docker Swarm network issues or misconfigured services.
**Fix:** Check the Docker Swarm logs and ensure that the service is deployed correctly.
