name	paper-deployer
description	Deploy paper content from configured site_ready files to d-nd.com VPS. Handles md-to-HTML conversion, bilingual merge, figure path resolution, and pages.json update.

Paper Deployer — Papers → d-nd.com Pipeline

Deploy updated paper content from a configured papers source to the live site.

Prerequisites

• Paper source files in ${DND_PAPERS_DIR}/site_ready/paper_X_IT.md and paper_X_EN.md
• Figure SVGs in ${DND_PAPERS_DIR}/figures/ (already converted from PDF)
• VPS access via SSH

Deployment Steps

Step 1 — Check source files

ls ${DND_PAPERS_DIR}/site_ready/paper_*_{IT,EN}.md 2>/dev/null
ls ${DND_PAPERS_DIR}/figures/*.svg 2>/dev/null | wc -l

Step 2 — Convert and merge

The conversion pipeline:

1. Read IT and EN markdown from site_ready/
2. Convert to HTML (preserve LaTeX $...$ for MathJax)
3. Convert markdown images ![alt](src) to <figure><img> HTML
4. Resolve figure wildcard paths (fig_C1_*.svg → fig_C1_actual_name.svg)
5. Merge into pages.json: IT → content, EN → content_en

Step 3 — Deploy figures to VPS

scp ${DND_PAPERS_DIR}/figures/*.svg root@${DND_VPS_IP}:/opt/d-nd_com_site/papers/figures/

Step 4 — Update pages.json on VPS

# The pages.json served by nginx is at /opt/site_repo/data/pages.json
# The container bind-mounts this same file
# Update in place — changes are immediately live (nginx no-cache)
ssh root@${DND_VPS_IP} 'python3 << "PYEOF"
import json
with open("/opt/site_repo/data/pages.json") as f:
    data = json.load(f)
# ... merge logic here ...
with open("/opt/site_repo/data/pages.json", "w") as f:
    json.dump(data, f, ensure_ascii=False)
PYEOF'

Step 5 — Verify

# Check the deployed content
ssh root@${DND_VPS_IP} 'python3 -c "
import json
with open(\"/opt/site_repo/data/pages.json\") as f:
    data = json.load(f)
for p in data[\"pages\"]:
    if \"paper\" in p.get(\"slug\",\"\").lower():
        ci=len(p.get(\"content\",\"\"))
        ce=len(p.get(\"content_en\",\"\"))
        print(f\"{p[\"slug\"]} IT:{ci} EN:{ce}\")
"'

Important Notes

• Two pages.json files exist on VPS: /opt/site_repo/data/pages.json (served by nginx, authoritative) and /opt/d-nd_com_site/data/pages.json (bundled in dist, fallback). Always update site_repo.
• Container bind mount: /opt/site_repo is mounted as /app/site in the container. They share the same filesystem.
• CMS consumer: writes to the same file via bind mount. Preserves all fields on write. Safe.
• Markdown images in HTML: The frontend (PageComponent.tsx) converts <p>![alt](src)</p> to <figure> at render time. But prefer proper HTML in source.
