Deploy Fly.io Proxy / deploy (push) Successful in 1m8s
## Summary - Introduce `tag:flyio-target` so services must explicitly opt in to be reachable by the fly.io proxy - Replace broad `tag:k8s` and `tag:homelab` grants with the new tag in the ACL rule and test - Add `tailscale.com/tags: "tag:k8s,tag:flyio-target"` annotation to docs, loki, and prometheus Ingresses - Switch Alloy push endpoints from `*.ops.eblu.me` (Caddy) to `*.tail8d86e.ts.net` (Tailscale Ingress) - Update docs: flyio-proxy, caddy, tailscale, forgejo (future public access + security checklist), expose-service-publicly ## Manual step (not in PR) Update the k8s operator OAuth client in the Tailscale admin console to include `tag:flyio-target` in its scope. Without this, the operator cannot assign the new tag to Ingress proxy nodes. ## Deployment order 1. **Pulumi ACLs** — `mise run tailnet-preview && mise run tailnet-up` 2. **OAuth client** — Manual update in Tailscale admin console 3. **K8s Ingresses** — `argocd app sync apps && argocd app sync docs loki prometheus` 4. **Fly.io proxy** — `mise run fly-deploy` 5. **Verify** — `mise run services-check`, check Grafana dashboards ## Test plan - [ ] `mise run tailnet-preview` shows clean diff - [ ] `argocd app diff docs`, `argocd app diff loki`, `argocd app diff prometheus` show only annotation additions - [ ] After deploy: Grafana dashboards show continued log/metric flow - [ ] `curl -sf https://docs.eblu.me` returns 200 - [ ] `mise run services-check` passes 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Reviewed-on: https://forge.ops.eblu.me/eblume/blumeops/pulls/126

# Fly.io Proxy
|
|
|
|
Public reverse proxy on [Fly.io](https://fly.io) that exposes selected BlumeOps services to the internet via a Tailscale tunnel back to the homelab.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Reference
|
|
|
|
| Property | Value |
|
|
|----------|-------|
|
|
| **App** | `blumeops-proxy` |
|
|
| **Region** | `sjc` (San Jose) |
|
|
| **Fly.io URL** | `blumeops-proxy.fly.dev` |
|
|
| **Config** | `fly/` directory in repo |
|
|
| **IaC** | `fly/fly.toml` (app), Pulumi (DNS + auth key) |
|
|
|
|
## Exposed Services
|
|
|
|
| Public domain | Backend | Service |
|
|
|---------------|---------|---------|
|
|
| `docs.eblu.me` | `docs.tail8d86e.ts.net` | [[docs]] |
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
Internet traffic hits Fly.io's Anycast edge, terminates TLS with a Let's Encrypt certificate, and is proxied by nginx to the backend service over a Tailscale WireGuard tunnel. See [[expose-service-publicly]] for the full architecture diagram.
|
|
|
|
## Key Files
|
|
|
|
| File | Purpose |
|
|
|------|---------|
|
|
| `fly/fly.toml` | App configuration |
|
|
| `fly/Dockerfile` | nginx + Tailscale + Alloy container |
|
|
| `fly/nginx.conf` | Reverse proxy, caching, rate limiting, JSON logging |
|
|
| `fly/alloy.river` | Alloy config: log tailing, metric extraction, remote_write |
|
|
| `fly/start.sh` | Entrypoint: start Tailscale, Alloy, then nginx |
|
|
| `pulumi/tailscale/__main__.py` | Auth key (`tag:flyio-proxy`) |
|
|
| `pulumi/tailscale/policy.hujson` | ACL grants for proxy |
|
|
| `pulumi/gandi/__main__.py` | DNS CNAMEs |
|
|
|
|
## Networking
|
|
|
|
Fly.io runs Firecracker microVMs which support TUN devices natively. Tailscale runs with a real TUN interface (not userspace networking), so MagicDNS and direct Tailscale IP routing work normally.
|
|
|
|
The Tailscale auth key is `preauthorized=True` to avoid device approval hangs on container restarts.
|
|
|
|
## Observability
|
|
|
|
[[alloy|Alloy]] runs inside the container alongside nginx and Tailscale, providing:
|
|
|
|
- **Logs**: nginx JSON access logs tailed and pushed to [[loki|Loki]] (`{instance="flyio-proxy", job="flyio-nginx"}`)
|
|
- **Metrics**: Derived from access logs, pushed to [[prometheus|Prometheus]] via `remote_write`
|
|
- `flyio_nginx_http_requests_total` — request rate by status/method/host
|
|
- `flyio_nginx_http_request_duration_seconds` — latency histogram
|
|
- `flyio_nginx_http_response_bytes_total` — response bandwidth
|
|
- `flyio_nginx_cache_requests_total` — cache HIT/MISS/EXPIRED counts
|
|
|
|
### Dashboards
|
|
|
|
| Dashboard | Purpose |
|
|
|-----------|---------|
|
|
| **Docs APM** | Per-service view for `docs.eblu.me`: request rate, latency percentiles, cache hit ratio, error rate, bandwidth, access logs |
|
|
| **Fly.io Proxy Health** | Aggregate proxy health: connections, total request rate by host, cache performance, upstream latency, Alloy health |
|
|
|
|
Alloy listens on `127.0.0.1:12345` for self-scraping its `/metrics` endpoint. All metrics carry `instance="flyio-proxy"`.
|
|
|
|
## Security Considerations
|
|
|
|
The `tag:flyio-proxy` ACL grants access only to `tag:flyio-target:443`. Services must explicitly opt in by adding a `tailscale.com/tags: "tag:k8s,tag:flyio-target"` annotation to their Tailscale Ingress. This means the proxy can only reach endpoints that have been individually tagged — a compromised nginx config cannot route to arbitrary services on the tailnet.
|
|
|
|
Currently tagged as `tag:flyio-target`: [[docs]], [[loki]], [[prometheus]]. Loki and Prometheus are tagged so that [[alloy|Alloy]] (running inside the container) can push logs and metrics directly via their Tailscale Ingress endpoints — the restricted ACL means Caddy on indri (`tag:homelab`) is not reachable from the proxy.
|
|
|
|
To expose an additional service through the proxy, add the `tag:flyio-target` annotation to its Tailscale Ingress. See [[expose-service-publicly]] for the full workflow.

## Secrets
|
|
|
|
| Secret | Source | Description |
|
|
|--------|--------|-------------|
|
|
| `TS_AUTHKEY` | Pulumi state → `fly secrets` | Tailscale auth key for joining tailnet |
|
|
| `FLY_DEPLOY_TOKEN` | Fly.io → 1Password | Deploy token for CI |
