overseerandClaude Opus 5.5 3321a70ffd Bind the API port to a configurable LAN address for the reverse proxy
Publish port 8080 on ${NESTQUEST_BIND_ADDRESS:-127.0.0.1} so the shared
Traefik proxy (TLS for nestquest.cubecraftlabs.com) can reach the API
box, while an unconfigured deployment stays localhost-only. Document the
variable in deploy/.env.example and the production topology in
api/README.md.

# NestQuest API
Standalone FastAPI service owning the NestQuest database (Feature 16).
Served with ``uvicorn --factory api.app:create_app``; configuration is
environment-supplied (``api/config.py``) and every variable is required.
## Runtime dependencies
``api/requirements.txt`` is the API deployable's OWN dependency
manifest (fastapi, uvicorn, pyjwt[crypto], httpx) — deliberately kept
out of the integration's ``pyproject.toml`` dev group, which exists only
so the monorepo test venv can run the API tests.
## Container deployment (scaffold)
The image is built from the repository ROOT context (the API loads the
bundled domain core from ``custom_components/nestquest/core/`` by file
location, so both trees must be in the build context):
docker build -t nestquest-api:latest .
Run it with compose — the SQLite file lives on the named volume
``nestquest-db`` so recreating the container keeps household data:
cp deploy/.env.example deploy/.env # then fill in real values
docker compose -f deploy/compose.yaml up -d --build
``deploy/.env`` is git-ignored and supplies the secrets (panel service
token, Authentik OIDC settings); ``NESTQUEST_DB_PATH`` is fixed to
``/var/lib/nestquest/nestquest.db`` by compose.
The published port binds ``NESTQUEST_BIND_ADDRESS`` from
``deploy/.env`` and defaults to ``127.0.0.1`` (localhost only). In
production TLS is terminated by the shared Traefik reverse proxy,
which serves ``https://nestquest.cubecraftlabs.com`` (Let's Encrypt,
auto-renewed, HTTP redirected to HTTPS) and forwards to the API box
on port 8080 — so on that box set ``NESTQUEST_BIND_ADDRESS`` to its
LAN address (``10.60.1.14``). Traefik only allows
``/api/v1/panel`` from the Home Assistant host. Network separation,
backup and restore are later Feature 17 tasks.
