chore: rename cameleer3 to cameleer
Rename Java packages from net.siegeln.cameleer3 to net.siegeln.cameleer,
update all references in workflows, Docker configs, docs, and bootstrap.

# Configurable Base Path for SaaS App
## Problem
Logto uses many root-level paths (`/sign-in`, `/register`, `/consent`, `/social`, `/api/interaction`, `/api/experience`, `/assets`, etc.) that conflict with the SaaS app's catch-all routing. Enumerating Logto's paths in Traefik is fragile and keeps growing.
## Solution
Move the SaaS app to a configurable base path (default: `/platform`). Logto becomes the Traefik catch-all. Zero path enumeration — any path Logto adds in the future just works.
## Routing
| Path | Target | Priority |
|------|--------|----------|
| `/platform/*` | cameleer-saas:8080 | default |
| `/server/*` | cameleer-server-ui:80 | default |
| `/*` | logto:3001 (catch-all) | 1 (lowest) |
## Configuration
```env
# .env
CONTEXT_PATH=/platform # Change to /saas, /app, etc. No rebuild needed.
```
## Implementation
### 1. Spring Boot — `application.yml`
```yaml
server:
servlet:
context-path: ${CONTEXT_PATH:/platform}
```
Spring automatically prefixes all endpoints. Controllers, SecurityConfig matchers, interceptor patterns — all relative to context-path. No changes needed in Java code.
### 2. Vite — `ui/vite.config.ts`
Build with relative base so assets work from any prefix:
```ts
build: {
outDir: 'dist',
emptyOutDir: true,
assetsDir: '_app',
// removed: base (default '/' for dev, entrypoint injects <base> for production)
},
```
Change `base` to `'./'` so index.html references become relative:
```html
<!-- Before: <script src="/_app/index.js"> (absolute, breaks with prefix) -->
<!-- After: <script src="_app/index.js"> (relative, works from any base) -->
```
### 3. Container entrypoint — inject `<base href>`
Create `docker/entrypoint.sh`:
```sh
#!/bin/sh
# Inject <base href> into index.html for runtime base path support
CONTEXT_PATH="${CONTEXT_PATH:-/platform}"
sed -i "s|<head>|<head><base href=\"${CONTEXT_PATH}/\">|" /app/static/index.html
exec java -jar /app/app.jar
```
In Dockerfile (or docker-compose override for dev):
```yaml
entrypoint: ["sh", "/app/entrypoint.sh"]
```
For dev mode (mounted dist), the `docker-compose.dev.yml` entrypoint runs the sed on the mounted file.
### 4. Frontend — derive base path at runtime
**`ui/src/config.ts`** — use `document.baseURI`:
```ts
const basePath = new URL(document.baseURI).pathname.replace(/\/$/, '');
// basePath = "/platform"
fetch(basePath + '/api/config')
```
**`ui/src/api/client.ts`** — dynamic API base:
```ts
const basePath = new URL(document.baseURI).pathname.replace(/\/$/, '');
const API_BASE = basePath + '/api';
```
**`ui/src/main.tsx`** — router basename:
```tsx
const basePath = new URL(document.baseURI).pathname.replace(/\/$/, '') || '/';
<BrowserRouter basename={basePath}>
```
### 5. Docker Compose — Traefik labels
**cameleer-saas:**
```yaml
labels:
- traefik.http.routers.saas.rule=PathPrefix(`${CONTEXT_PATH:-/platform}`)
- traefik.http.routers.saas.entrypoints=websecure
- traefik.http.routers.saas.tls=true
- traefik.http.services.saas.loadbalancer.server.port=8080
```
**logto (catch-all):**
```yaml
labels:
- traefik.http.routers.logto.rule=PathPrefix(`/`)
- traefik.http.routers.logto.priority=1
- traefik.http.routers.logto.entrypoints=websecure
- traefik.http.routers.logto.tls=true
- traefik.http.services.logto.loadbalancer.server.port=3001
```
Remove all the enumerated Logto paths — Logto is now the catch-all.
### 6. Logto ENDPOINT
Logto's ENDPOINT stays at root (no prefix):
```yaml
ENDPOINT: ${PUBLIC_PROTOCOL:-https}://${PUBLIC_HOST:-localhost}
```
OIDC issuer = `https://domain.com/oidc`. Same domain as the SPA.
### 7. Bootstrap — redirect URIs
Update redirect URIs to include the context path:
```sh
SPA_REDIRECT_URIS="[\"${PROTO}://${HOST}${CONTEXT_PATH}/callback\"]"
SPA_POST_LOGOUT_URIS="[\"${PROTO}://${HOST}${CONTEXT_PATH}/login\"]"
```
Pass `CONTEXT_PATH` to the bootstrap container.
### 8. Tests — `application-test.yml`
```yaml
server:
servlet:
context-path: /platform
```
Test MockMvc paths are relative to context-path, so existing test paths (`/api/tenants`, etc.) continue to work without changes.
## Files to modify
- `src/main/resources/application.yml` — add context-path property
- `src/main/resources/application-test.yml` — add context-path for tests
- `ui/vite.config.ts``base: './'` for relative assets
- `ui/src/config.ts` — derive base path from `document.baseURI`
- `ui/src/api/client.ts` — dynamic `API_BASE`
- `ui/src/main.tsx``BrowserRouter basename` from `document.baseURI`
- `docker/entrypoint.sh` — NEW, injects `<base href>` into index.html
- `docker-compose.yml` — Traefik labels (SaaS at `/platform`, Logto catch-all), pass `CONTEXT_PATH` to bootstrap
- `docker/logto-bootstrap.sh` — context path in redirect URIs
## Files that do NOT change
- All 11 Java controllers — Spring context-path handles prefix transparently
- `SecurityConfig.java` — matchers are relative to context-path
- `WebConfig.java` — interceptor pattern relative to context-path
- `ui/src/api/hooks.ts` — uses centralized `API_BASE`
- All test files — MockMvc is context-path aware
## Customer experience
```env
# .env
PUBLIC_HOST=cameleer.mycompany.com
PUBLIC_PROTOCOL=https
CONTEXT_PATH=/platform
# DNS: 1 record
# cameleer.mycompany.com → server IP
# docker compose up -d
# SaaS at https://cameleer.mycompany.com/platform/
# Logto at https://cameleer.mycompany.com/ (login, OIDC)
# Server UI at https://cameleer.mycompany.com/server/
```
