Background

PDFs are saved to a local patents/ directory relative to the running process. In a containerised deployment this directory is ephemeral — PDFs are lost on container restart unless a volume is explicitly mounted.

What to do

  • Add a clearly marked section to the README describing the patents/ directory and its role.
  • In docker-compose.yml, add an explicit named volume (or bind mount) for the patents/ directory so developers do not lose PDFs on restart.
  • Consider adding a PATENTS_DIR environment variable for flexibility.
  • (Optional, longer term) Evaluate object storage (S3/MinIO) as a future alternative and note it in the docs.

Acceptance criteria

  • docker-compose.yml mounts a persistent volume at the patents/ path.
  • README clearly explains how PDF storage works and what to configure in production.
  • No data loss when running docker compose restart.

Already resolved. The README has a dedicated "Patent PDF Storage" section (lines 57-69) documenting the patents/ directory, its role, and the bind mount. The docker-compose.yml already includes ./patents:/app/patents on the API service (line 52). S3/MinIO storage is also documented as an alternative.
