Deployment Guide

This guide explains how to deploy the Garmin AI Coach application to HuggingFace Spaces.

Prerequisites

1. HuggingFace Account: Sign up if you don't have one
2. Google Cloud Service Account Key: See Terraform setup
3. HuggingFace CLI: Install with pip install huggingface_hub[cli]

Quick Start

Option A: Automated Deployment (Recommended)

Use the deployment script from repository root:

# Generate requirements.txt
./infrastructure/deployment/scripts/generate-requirements.sh

# Deploy to HuggingFace Spaces
./infrastructure/deployment/scripts/deploy-to-hf.sh

Option B: Manual Deployment

1. Authenticate with HuggingFace:

huggingface-cli login

1. Create a private Space:

   • Go to HuggingFace Spaces
   • Click "Create new Space"
   • Set name: garmin-agent (or your preferred name)
   • Choose SDK: Gradio
   • Visibility: Private

2. Prepare deployment files:

# From repository root
cd infrastructure/deployment/scripts
./generate-requirements.sh

# Copy files to repository root
cp infrastructure/deployment/huggingface/app.py ./app.py
cp infrastructure/deployment/huggingface/requirements.txt ./requirements.txt
cp infrastructure/deployment/huggingface/README.md ./README.md

1. Deploy to Space:

# Clone your Space repository
git clone https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/garmin-agent
cd garmin-agent

# Copy application files and workspace
cp /path/to/repo/app.py ./
cp /path/to/repo/requirements.txt ./
cp /path/to/repo/README.md ./
cp -r /path/to/repo/packages ./
cp -r /path/to/repo/services ./

# Commit and push
git add .
git commit -m "Initial deployment"
git push

1. Configure Secrets and Variables:

   Go to your Space Settings:

   • Settings → Secrets (for sensitive values)
   • Settings → Variables (for non-sensitive configuration)

   Required Secret (Settings → Secrets):

   • GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS_JSON: Paste the entire contents of your service account key JSON file

     {
       "type": "service_account",
       "project_id": "savvy-bit-472903-g9",
       ...
     }
     

   Required Variables (Settings → Variables):

   • DATABASE_TYPE=firestore
   • GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT=savvy-bit-472903-g9
   • ENABLE_AUTH=true
   • ENVIRONMENT=production
   • CHAT_AGENT_MODEL=hf:meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct

   Optional Variables:

   • HUGGINGFACE_HUB_TOKEN: Your HF token (required for HF models)
   • TELEMETRY_BACKEND=disabled: Telemetry configuration

2. Restart Space: After configuring secrets, restart your Space from the Settings page.

File Structure for Deployment

HuggingFace Spaces requires the following structure at repository root:

repository-root/
├── app.py                    # Entry point (from infrastructure/deployment/huggingface/app.py)
├── requirements.txt          # Generated dependencies
├── README.md                 # This file with HF metadata header
├── packages/                 # Full workspace structure
│   ├── ai-core/
│   └── shared-config/
└── services/
    ├── cli/
    └── web-app/

Important: Deploy the entire workspace structure to maintain package imports and dependencies.

Environment Variables Reference

Monitoring and Troubleshooting

View Application Logs

In your Space:

1. Go to your Space page
2. Click "Logs" tab
3. Monitor startup messages and errors

Common Issues

1. "Missing required environment variables"

• Solution: Verify all required variables are set in Settings → Variables
• Check secret GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS_JSON is set in Settings → Secrets

2. "Failed to parse GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS_JSON"

• Solution: Ensure the secret contains valid JSON (entire service account key file)
• Verify no extra quotes or formatting around the JSON content

3. "Failed to import application modules"

• Solution: Ensure full workspace structure (packages/, services/) is deployed
• Verify requirements.txt includes all dependencies

4. "Firestore connection failed"

• Solution: Verify service account has roles/datastore.user permission
• Check GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT matches your Firestore project
• Confirm Firestore database exists in your GCP project

5. "Model not found" or authentication errors

• Solution: For HF models, set HUGGINGFACE_HUB_TOKEN in Variables
• For OpenAI models, set OPENAI_API_KEY
• For Anthropic models, set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

Testing the Deployment

After deployment:

1. Visit your Space URL: https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/garmin-agent
2. Wait for the Space to build and start (first start takes 2-3 minutes)
3. Register a new user account
4. Test the chat interface with simple queries
5. Verify Firestore connection by checking data persistence

Updating the Application

To update your deployed application:

1. Update code locally and test

2. Regenerate requirements.txt if dependencies changed:

   ./infrastructure/deployment/scripts/generate-requirements.sh
   

3. Copy updated files to Space repository

4. Commit and push changes

5. HF Spaces will automatically rebuild and restart

Security Best Practices

1. Keep Space Private: Set visibility to "Private" for production
2. Rotate Service Account Keys: Follow GCP key rotation guidelines
3. Use Secrets for Credentials: Never commit credentials to repository
4. Monitor Access Logs: Review Space access logs regularly
5. Enable Authentication: Always deploy with ENABLE_AUTH=true

Performance Optimization

• Model Selection: Smaller models (e.g., Llama-3.2-3B) start faster and use less memory
• Cold Start: First request after inactivity may take 30-60 seconds
• Firestore Region: Database in australia-southeast1 optimises latency for APAC users
• Space Hardware: Upgrade to GPU Space for better performance with larger models

Support

• HuggingFace Spaces: HF Spaces Documentation
• Firestore: Firestore Documentation
• Application Issues: See repository issues or documentation
