This commit updates multiple roles to ensure compatibility with Ansible 2.20.
Several include paths and task-loading mechanisms required adjustments,
as Ansible 2.20 applies stricter evaluation rules for complex Jinja expressions
and no longer resolves certain relative include paths the way Ansible 2.18 did.
Key changes:
- Replaced legacy once_finalize.yml and once_flag.yml with the new structure
under tasks/utils/once/finalize.yml and tasks/utils/once/flag.yml.
- Updated all include_tasks statements to use 'path_join' with playbook_dir,
ensuring deterministic and absolute file resolution across roles.
- Fixed all network helper includes by converting direct relative paths such as
'roles/docker-compose/tasks/utils/network.yml' to proper Jinja-evaluated paths.
- Normalized MATOMO_* variable names for consistency with the updated variable
scope behavior in Ansible 2.20.
- Removed deprecated patterns that were implicitly supported in Ansible 2.18
but break under the more strict variable and path resolution model in 2.20.
These changes are part of the full migration step required to ensure the
infinito-nexus roles remain stable, deterministic, and forward-compatible with
Ansible 2.20.

- Replace legacy utils/run_once.yml with the new helpers utils/once_flag.yml and utils/once_finalize.yml
- Introduce utils/compose_up.yml to ensure docker-compose stacks are up and to flush handlers safely without coupling to run-once flags
- Migrate all affected roles (desk-*, dev-*, sys-ctl-*, sys-svc-*, web-app-*, web-svc-*, util-*) to the new run-once helpers
- Rework sys-svc-msmtp to auto-load Mailu once per deploy, check reachability, and reuse the running stack instead of requiring multiple playbook passes
- Adjust web-app-mailu to integrate cert deployment, handler flushing, and run-once handling so Mailu is fully initialized in a single deploy
- Improve Matomo, CDN, logout and CSP/health-check related roles to cooperate with the new compose_up / once_* pattern
- Simplify alarm/backup/timer/service orchestration (sys-ctl-alm-*, sys-bkp-provider, sys-timer-cln-bkps, etc.) by moving run-once logic into dedicated 01_core.yml files
- Update integration tests so utils/once_flag.yml and utils/once_finalize.yml are recognised as valid run-once providers, keeping the global run_once_* guarantees consistent
- Align frontend injection and service dependencies so Mastodon- and Mailu-related services can be brought up coherently within a single deployment cycle rather than several iterations
Unify reverse proxy handling across apps via sys-stk-front-proxy and cleanly separate internal docker nginx configs from external vhosts.
Changes:
- docker-compose: use with_first_found for optional env and docker-compose.override files so roles can provide either a template or a static file without noisy 'Could not find or access' failures.
- sys-stk-front-proxy: remove front_proxy_domain_conf_src and switch nginx vhost rendering to with_first_found over app-specific proxy.conf.j2 and the generic roles/sys-svc-proxy vhost flavour; keep health-check and handler logic unchanged.
- web-app-nextcloud: migrate to sys-stk-full-stateful (front proxy + DB + docker), move internal nginx config to docker.conf.j2 under the volume path, and rename host.conf.j2 to proxy.conf.j2 for the external vhost.
- web-app-magento: rename nginx.conf.j2 to docker.conf.j2 and update the runtime template task accordingly to make the intent (internal nginx) explicit.
- web-app-matrix: rename nginx.conf.j2 to synapse.conf.j2 and adjust the webserver task to use the new template name for the synapse vhost.
- web-app-bridgy-fed & web-app-flowise: pass domain and http_port explicitly when including sys-stk-front-proxy so the front stack has all required context.
- web-svc-cdn/file/html: replace direct sys-stk-front-base + sys-util-csp-cert + nginx.conf.j2 handling with sys-stk-front-proxy and proxy.conf.j2, relying on the shared front-stack for TLS/CSP/vHost wiring.
- web-svc-collabora: drop the direct nginx.conf.j2 vhost generation and rename it to proxy.conf.j2 so it is picked up by sys-stk-front-proxy like other services.
- web-opt-rdr-domains: rename redirect.domain.nginx.conf.j2 to redirect-domain.conf.j2 and adjust the task for clearer and more consistent naming.

- New web-svc-onlyoffice role (Docker, env, CSP, proxy hooks)
- Nextcloud plugin integration with JWT and CSP updates
- Custom Nextcloud image with updated CA certificates
- Networking and port assignments
- Disabled Collabora by default
- Enabled ONLYOFFICE by default

- Add CSP3 support for style/script: include -elem and -attr directives
- Base (style-src, script-src) now unions elem/attr (CSP2/Safari fallback)
- Respect explicit base disables (e.g. style-src.unsafe-inline: false)
- Hashes only when 'unsafe-inline' absent in the final base tokens
- Nginx: set CSP only for HTML/worker via header_filter_by_lua_block; drop for subresources
- Remove per-location header_filter; keep body_filter only
- Update app role flags to *-attr where appropriate; extend desktop CSS sources
- Add comprehensive unit tests for union/explicit-disable/no-mirror-back

- sys-service:
- Set explicit ownership and permissions for generated unit files:
owner=root, group=root, mode=0644. Prevents drift and makes idempotence
predictable when handlers reload/refresh systemd.
- web-svc-collabora:
- Move cmp-docker-proxy include into tasks/01_core.yml and run it
before Nginx config generation. Use public: true only to initialize the
proxy/compose context and docker_compose_flush_handlers: true to ensure
timely handler execution.
- Define role-local variables domain and http_port in vars/main.yml
and use {{ domain }} for the Nginx server file path. These values MUST
be defined locally because they cannot be reliably imported via
public: true — other roles may override them later in the play, leading
to leakage and nondeterministic behavior. Localizing avoids precedence
conflicts without resorting to host-wide set_fact.
- CSP adjusted: add server.security.flags.style-src.unsafe-inline: true
to accommodate Collabora’s inline styles (requested as “csr” in notes).
- Minor variable alignment/cleanup and TODO note for future refactor.
- Housekeeping:
- Rename task title to reflect {{ domain }} usage.

- Introduced a new handler 'docker compose pull' that runs only once per
{{ docker_compose.directories.instance }} directory by using a lock
file under /run/ansible/compose-pull.
- Ensures idempotency by marking the task as changed only when a pull
was actually executed.
- Restricted execution with 'when: MODE_UPDATE | bool'.
- Improves update workflow by avoiding redundant docker pulls during
the same Ansible run.
