The version-source update in #1146 moved the bigbluebutton/docker ref from
v3.0.23 to v3.0.39. That tag changes three things the role did not
handle, and it exposed a fourth defect in compose_file_args.
1. generate-compose renders etherpad and bbb-pads only behind
USE_INSECURE_ETHERPAD and otherwise emits bbb-shared-notes-server with
a `build:` block and no `image:` (upstream adds the image only after
the tag, in 9a6a9a9a4c). compose_mods drops `build` only where an image
is set, so the guard "Fail if any service still builds locally" stopped
every BigBlueButton deploy (main run 39749899667, Nextcloud#11:
`rc: 0`, `stdout: ' build:'`, bootstrap_compose_project.yml:35).
meta/services.yml now pins alangecker/bbb-shared-notes-server:v3.0.39,
compose_mods takes `pinned` (BBB_PINNED_SERVICES, every service the
role config pins an image for) and drops their `build`, and the
etherpad leftovers go (ep_redis_publisher patch, etherpad postgres
entrypoint and initdb hook, etherpad database tasks, ETHERPAD_* env,
etherpad_api_key secret).
2. The notes server connects to postgres once at start and exits with 2
when it is not up yet; upstream gives it no restart policy. The
override sets the role's restart policy, so it retries until postgres
accepts connections.
3. Greenlight moves from v3.8.0 to v3.9.0.1, which sets
`config.hosts = URL_HOST`, and the template passes
`URL_HOST: https://${DOMAIN}`. Rails compares hostnames, so every
request was blocked (`Blocked hosts: bbb.talk.infinito.test`, 403).
Greenlight documents URL_HOST as the bare hostname; the override sets
it to the role domain.
4. compose_file_args decided whether a role ships a compose override by
templating "{{ application_id | abs_role_path_by_application_id }}"
through the templar. ansible-core 2.21 does not render an untrusted
string, so the check saw the literal and always returned False: the CA
override generation and the pull handler never read BBB's
compose.override.yml. That was harmless while compose.yml alone was
valid; with the notes-server image living in the override, `compose
config` failed ("has neither an image nor a build context"). The check
now resolves the role path for the application id it is given. BBB is
the only role that ships an override, so no other role's file list
changes.
Existing installations drop the etherpad and bbb-pads containers on the
next `compose up --remove-orphans`; the old `etherpad` database stays in
PostgreSQL untouched.

meta/schema.yml held credential definitions and their runtime values, but the
name said 'schema' and read like structural metadata next to services.yml and
volumes.yml. Nothing in the file is a schema in the sense the other meta files
use the word, and a contributor had to open it to learn it holds secrets.
62 role files renamed. ROLE_FILE_META_SCHEMA becomes ROLE_FILE_META_SECRETS and
keeps its role as the SPOT the path is built from.
Two readers bypassed that constant and spelled the name themselves:
utils/cache/applications.py built meta_dir / 'schema.yml' twice, and
plugins/lookup/application_gid.py carries the filename in the marker list it
detects application roles by. Left behind, the rename would not have raised —
credentials would have resolved empty and the role would have stopped counting
as an application.
