feat: add Docker deployment support#71
Conversation
- Add Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml for containerized deployment - Add docker-entrypoint.sh to auto-initialize state/join-keys on first run - Add STAR_OFFICE_DATA_DIR and STAR_OFFICE_MEMORY_DIR env var support in app.py so runtime JSON files can be separated from the image via volume mount - Update .env.example with MEMORY_HOST_PATH for Docker usage - Update .gitignore to exclude data/ volume directory - Add .dockerignore to keep image lean - Update README with Docker deployment section - Add CLAUDE.md with project guidance for Claude Code - Add design doc: docs/plans/2026-03-09-docker-deployment-design.md Backward compatible: without env vars, DATA_DIR falls back to ROOT_DIR so existing python3 app.py usage is unchanged.

Thanks a lot for the PR — we really appreciate the work and the thought behind it. For now, we'd prefer not to maintain multiple distribution variants while the project is still evolving quickly. We expect more core changes and improvements in the near term, and introducing parallel versions at this stage would add extra maintenance, testing, and documentation overhead for us. That said, we do think the idea has value. Once the main architecture and feature set are more stable, we'd be more open to revisiting a more complete packaged option — likely something along the lines of a full Docker-based edition. Thanks again for contributing and helping us think ahead. We're going to close this one for now so we can stay focused on the mainline, but we definitely appreciate the direction. |

Closing this for now as noted above. |
