fix: Add curl in Space image and fix route used in HEALTHCHECK that was causing unhealthy status

[gustoliveira]

Description

Issue in https://github.com/makeplane/plane/issues/8392

The space app container was consistently marked as unhealthy because:

1. Missing curl: The HEALTHCHECK command relies on curl, which was not installed in the Alpine-based image.
2. Incorrect Route: The healthcheck was hitting the root path (/), but the application is configured to run under the /spaces/ basename, resulting in 404 errors.

Changes

• Dockerfile.space:
  • Added curl to the base stage to ensure it's available for the healthcheck.
  • Added libc6-compat (recommended for Alpine when running Node.js apps with native dependencies like Turbo).
  • Updated the HEALTHCHECK command to point to http://127.0.0.1:3000/spaces/ instead of the root.

Type of Change

• [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
• [ ] Feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
• [x] Improvement (change that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
• [ ] Code refactoring
• [ ] Performance improvements
• [ ] Documentation update

Test Scenarios

• Build the image and run the container: the status should now transition from starting to healthy after the start period.

[!NOTE] Installs curl in the Space runner image and updates the HEALTHCHECK to target /spaces/ instead of /.

• Docker (Space):
  • Install curl in the runner stage.
  • Update HEALTHCHECK to http://127.0.0.1:3000/spaces/ (was /).

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Added a small networking tool to the runtime image to improve runtime operations and debugging.
  • Improved health monitoring by updating the service health check to target the spaces endpoint, enhancing more accurate readiness/liveness detection.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 2 (Simple) | ⏱️ ~10 minutes

• Single-file change with small, localized edits.
• Review focus:
  • Confirm curl installation command and image layering.
  • Verify HEALTHCHECK syntax and expected endpoint availability (port/path).
  • Ensure no missing runtime dependencies were assumed.

Poem

🐰 I nibbled the Dockerfile, found curl to add,
The health check now hops to /spaces/ — not bad.
Containers breathe easy, the runner feels new,
A tiny tweak, a happy brew. ✨

A temporary solution: update healthcheck in docker compose file:

services:
  space:
    healthcheck:
        test: ["CMD", "wget", "--spider", "-q", "http://127.0.0.1:3000/spaces"]

using the available wgetcommand to perform check.
