kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5 4986e80dd4 feat(readme): ask the reader for a domain the deployment can resolve
The Production block never set one. inventory provision writes only
ansible_connection for a local host, so DOMAIN_PRIMARY stayed at the
group_vars default of infinito.localhost and the deployment served a zone its
own resolver knows nothing about. CoreDNS templates answers for
INFINITO_DOMAIN_RE and nothing else, so every lookup of the deployment's own
name came back NXDOMAIN.

Mastodon is where that surfaced. tootctl accounts create validates the address
through EmailMxValidator, which resolves MX and then, for the domain itself,
A and AAAA. All six queries returned NXDOMAIN in run 33574056480, the
validator recorded email :unreachable, and the admin account was never created.
Only the guide rows were affected: the matrix rows write
DOMAIN_PRIMARY: "{{ lookup('env', 'INFINITO_DOMAIN') }}" into their host_vars
and resolve fine.

The template now carries DOMAIN=<your-domain> in both the host and the
container form and threads it into --vars, with the container form passing it
through the docker run boundary as well. The two guide runners substitute it
the way they already substitute the SSH key, so the replay deploys under
INFINITO_DOMAIN like every other CI deploy. compose_deploy.sh moves its env
load ahead of the substitutions to have the value; host_deploy.sh had no env
load at all.

A production reader is asked for a domain now instead of silently inheriting
infinito.localhost, which no real deployment wants either. The shipped default
keeps its value: sys-svc-nss documents that *.localhost resolves through the
myhostname NSS module without any zone, and host-side tasks lean on it.

Qdrant

Description

This Ansible role deploys and configures a Qdrant vector database in a Docker container using Docker Compose. It runs Qdrant as a central, pinned engine that many application roles share over the cross-stack network, keeping the consumer roles stateless and NFS-shareable in swarm.

Overview

Built for environments that demand reliability and ease of management, this role:

  • Sets up a dedicated Docker network for Qdrant.
  • Deploys a Qdrant container with secure configurations and an HTTP readiness healthcheck.
  • Provides a connection lookup (engine) so consumers resolve the central instance and their own per-consumer collection prefix.

Cosmos

The diagram places Qdrant in the Infinito.Nexus cosmos: the components it deploys (capabilities), the central services it consumes (dependencies), and its outward reach (federation and bridged external networks).

Solid 1:1 edges are fixed relationships; dashed 0..1 edges are conditional (enabled only in matching deployments); red 0..0 edges are turned off in this role. Node markers show the role's deploy modes (💻 host, 🐳 compose, 🐝 swarm); ❌ marks a service that is explicitly turned off, and ⚙️ an Ansible role dependency declared in meta/main.yml.

Purpose

The purpose of this role is to provide an effortless way to deploy a Qdrant vector database via Docker. It minimizes manual interventions while ensuring that the engine is configured securely and reliably for both production and development scenarios.

Features

  • Automated Deployment: Installs Qdrant with minimal manual steps.
  • Central Engine: A single pinned stack shared by many consumers, mirroring the central database roles.
  • Per-Consumer Isolation: OSS Qdrant has no per-user auth; each consumer is isolated by the collection-name prefix {entity}_.
  • Enhanced Security: The service is bound to 127.0.0.1:6333, restricting access and enhancing security.
  • Seamless Docker Integration: Works harmoniously with Docker Compose and other roles in your infrastructure.

Quick Setup

Development

Clone, set up the workstation, and deploy Qdrant onto the local stack:

git clone https://github.com/infinito-nexus/core.git
cd core
make onboard
make compose-deploy mode=reinstall apps=svc-db-qdrant full_cycle=false

Production

Run the published image to provision the inventory and deploy Qdrant to a managed server (the mounted volume persists the inventory):

APP=svc-db-qdrant
HOST=<your-server>
DOMAIN=<your-domain>
TLS_MODE=self_signed
SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="<your-ssh-public-key>"

docker run --rm -it \
  -v "$PWD/inventories:/etc/infinito.nexus/inventories" \
  -e APP="$APP" -e HOST="$HOST" -e DOMAIN="$DOMAIN" -e TLS_MODE="$TLS_MODE" -e SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="$SSH_PUBLIC_KEY" \
  ghcr.io/infinito-nexus/core/debian bash -c '
    INVENTORY=/etc/infinito.nexus/inventories/production
    infinito administration inventory provision "$INVENTORY" \
      --inventory-file "$INVENTORY/devices.yml" \
      --host "$HOST" \
      --include "$APP" \
      --vars "{\"TLS_MODE\": \"$TLS_MODE\", \"DOMAIN_PRIMARY\": \"$DOMAIN\", \"users\": {\"administrator\": {\"authorized_keys\": [\"$SSH_PUBLIC_KEY\"]}}}" &&
    infinito administration deploy dedicated "$INVENTORY/devices.yml" \
      --password-file "$INVENTORY/.password" \
      --diff -vv'
