Update staging configuration to avoid port conflicts and enhance deployment scripts

- Changed staging app port from 3001 to 3002 in docker-compose.staging.yml
- Updated PostgreSQL port from 5433 to 5434 and Redis port from 6380 to 6381
- Modified STAGING_SETUP.md to reflect new port configurations
- Adjusted CI/CD workflows to accommodate new staging ports and improve deployment messages
- Added N8N environment variables to staging configuration for better integration

+# 🔧 Deployment Fixes Applied
+
+## Issues Fixed
+
+### 1. Port 3001 Already Allocated ❌ → ✅
+**Problem**: Port 3001 was already in use, causing staging deployment to fail.
+
+**Fix**: 
+- Changed staging port from `3001` to `3002`
+- Changed PostgreSQL staging port from `5433` to `5434`
+- Changed Redis staging port from `6380` to `6381`
+
+### 2. Docker Compose Version Warning ❌ → ✅
+**Problem**: `version: '3.8'` is obsolete in newer Docker Compose.
+
+**Fix**: Removed `version` line from `docker-compose.staging.yml`
+
+### 3. Missing N8N Environment Variables ❌ → ✅
+**Problem**: `N8N_SECRET_TOKEN` warning appeared.
+
+**Fix**: Added `N8N_WEBHOOK_URL` and `N8N_SECRET_TOKEN` to staging compose file
+
+### 4. Wrong Compose File Used ❌ → ✅
+**Problem**: Gitea workflow was using wrong compose file (stopping production containers).
+
+**Fix**: 
+- Updated `ci-cd-with-gitea-vars.yml` to detect branch and use correct compose file
+- Created dedicated `staging-deploy.yml` workflow
+- Staging now uses `docker-compose.staging.yml`
+- Production uses `docker-compose.production.yml`
+
+## Updated Ports
+
+| Service | Staging | Production |
+|---------|---------|------------|
+| App | **3002** ✅ | **3000** |
+| PostgreSQL | **5434** ✅ | **5432** |
+| Redis | **6381** ✅ | **6379** |
+
+## How It Works Now
+
+### Staging (dev/main branch)
+```bash
+git push origin dev
+# → Uses docker-compose.staging.yml
+# → Deploys to port 3002
+# → Does NOT touch production containers
+```
+
+### Production (production branch)
+```bash
+git push origin production
+# → Uses docker-compose.production.yml
+# → Deploys to port 3000
+# → Zero-downtime deployment
+# → Does NOT touch staging containers
+```
+
+## Files Updated
+
+- ✅ `docker-compose.staging.yml` - Fixed ports, removed version, added N8N vars
+- ✅ `.gitea/workflows/ci-cd-with-gitea-vars.yml` - Branch detection, correct compose files
+- ✅ `.gitea/workflows/staging-deploy.yml` - New dedicated staging workflow
+- ✅ `STAGING_SETUP.md` - Updated port references
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. **Test staging deployment**:
+   ```bash
+   git push origin dev
+   # Should deploy to port 3002 without errors
+   ```
+
+2. **Verify staging**:
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:3002/api/health
+   ```
+
+3. **When ready for production**:
+   ```bash
+   git checkout production
+   git merge main
+   git push origin production
+   # Deploys safely to port 3000
+   ```
+
+---
+
+**All fixes applied!** Staging and production are now completely isolated. 🚀

+# 🚀 Staging Environment Setup
+
+## Overview
+
+You now have **two separate Docker stacks**:
+
+1. **Staging** - Deploys automatically on `dev` or `main` branch
+   - Port: `3002`
+   - Container: `portfolio-app-staging`
+   - Database: `portfolio_staging_db` (port 5433)
+   - Redis: `portfolio-redis-staging` (port 6380)
+   - URL: `https://staging.dk0.dev` (or `http://localhost:3002`)
+
+2. **Production** - Deploys automatically on `production` branch
+   - Port: `3000`
+   - Container: `portfolio-app`
+   - Database: `portfolio_db` (port 5432)
+   - Redis: `portfolio-redis` (port 6379)
+   - URL: `https://dk0.dev`
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Automatic Staging Deployment
+When you push to `dev` or `main` branch:
+1. ✅ Tests run
+2. ✅ Docker image is built and tagged as `staging`
+3. ✅ Staging stack deploys automatically
+4. ✅ Available on port 3002
+
+### Automatic Production Deployment
+When you merge to `production` branch:
+1. ✅ Tests run
+2. ✅ Docker image is built and tagged as `production`
+3. ✅ **Zero-downtime deployment** (blue-green)
+4. ✅ Health checks before switching
+5. ✅ Rollback if health check fails
+6. ✅ Available on port 3000
+
+## Safety Features
+
+### Production Deployment Safety
+- ✅ **Zero-downtime**: New container starts before old one stops
+- ✅ **Health checks**: Verifies new container is healthy before switching
+- ✅ **Automatic rollback**: If health check fails, old container stays running
+- ✅ **Separate networks**: Staging and production are completely isolated
+- ✅ **Different ports**: No port conflicts
+- ✅ **Separate databases**: Staging data doesn't affect production
+
+### Staging Deployment
+- ✅ **Non-blocking**: Staging can fail without affecting production
+- ✅ **Isolated**: Completely separate from production
+- ✅ **Safe to test**: Break staging without breaking production
+
+## Ports Used
+
+| Service | Staging | Production |
+|---------|---------|------------|
+| App | 3002 | 3000 |
+| PostgreSQL | 5434 | 5432 |
+| Redis | 6381 | 6379 |
+
+## Workflow
+
+### Development Flow
+```bash
+# 1. Work on dev branch
+git checkout dev
+# ... make changes ...
+
+# 2. Push to dev (triggers staging deployment)
+git push origin dev
+# → Staging deploys automatically on port 3002
+
+# 3. Test staging
+curl http://localhost:3002/api/health
+
+# 4. Merge to main (also triggers staging)
+git checkout main
+git merge dev
+git push origin main
+# → Staging updates automatically
+
+# 5. When ready, merge to production
+git checkout production
+git merge main
+git push origin production
+# → Production deploys with zero-downtime
+```
+
+## Manual Commands
+
+### Staging
+```bash
+# Start staging
+docker compose -f docker-compose.staging.yml up -d
+
+# Stop staging
+docker compose -f docker-compose.staging.yml down
+
+# View staging logs
+docker compose -f docker-compose.staging.yml logs -f
+
+# Check staging health
+curl http://localhost:3002/api/health
+```
+
+### Production
+```bash
+# Start production
+docker compose -f docker-compose.production.yml up -d
+
+# Stop production
+docker compose -f docker-compose.production.yml down
+
+# View production logs
+docker compose -f docker-compose.production.yml logs -f
+
+# Check production health
+curl http://localhost:3000/api/health
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+### Staging
+- `NODE_ENV=staging`
+- `NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL=https://staging.dk0.dev`
+- `LOG_LEVEL=debug` (more verbose logging)
+
+### Production
+- `NODE_ENV=production`
+- `NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL=https://dk0.dev`
+- `LOG_LEVEL=info`
+
+## Database Separation
+
+- **Staging DB**: `portfolio_staging_db` (separate volume)
+- **Production DB**: `portfolio_db` (separate volume)
+- **No conflicts**: Staging can be reset without affecting production
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Check Both Environments
+```bash
+# Staging
+curl http://localhost:3002/api/health
+
+# Production
+curl http://localhost:3000/api/health
+```
+
+### View Container Status
+```bash
+# All containers
+docker ps
+
+# Staging only
+docker ps | grep staging
+
+# Production only
+docker ps | grep -v staging
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Staging Not Deploying
+1. Check GitHub Actions workflow
+2. Verify branch is `dev` or `main`
+3. Check Docker logs: `docker compose -f docker-compose.staging.yml logs`
+
+### Production Deployment Issues
+1. Check health endpoint before deployment
+2. Verify old container is running
+3. Check logs: `docker compose -f docker-compose.production.yml logs`
+4. Manual rollback: Restart old container if needed
+
+### Port Conflicts
+- Staging uses 3002, 5434, 6381
+- Production uses 3000, 5432, 6379
+- If conflicts occur, check what's using the ports:
+  ```bash
+  lsof -i :3002
+  lsof -i :3000
+  ```
+
+## Benefits
+
+✅ **Safe testing**: Test on staging without risk
+✅ **Zero-downtime**: Production updates don't interrupt service
+✅ **Isolation**: Staging and production are completely separate
+✅ **Automatic**: Deploys happen automatically on push
+✅ **Rollback**: Automatic rollback if deployment fails
+
+---
+
+**You're all set!** Push to `dev`/`main` for staging, merge to `production` for production deployment! 🚀
