## Description

[FusionDirectory](https://www.fusiondirectory.org/) is a web-based LDAP administration tool that manages users, groups, and other directory objects through a pluggable interface. The application stores all of its data in an external LDAP directory, which makes it the natural front-end for the project's `svc-db-openldap` backend.

## Overview

This role deploys FusionDirectory on Docker Compose against the project's central `svc-db-openldap` server. The OIDC variant gates the FusionDirectory web UI through `web-app-keycloak`'s SSO-proxy sidecar for SSO; the LDAP variant relies on the same FusionDirectory binding to `svc-db-openldap` as its primary auth path. RBAC follows the LDAP group model that FusionDirectory already understands natively, so no glue layer is required for authorisation mapping.

## Cosmos

The diagram places FusionDirectory 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`.

## Features

- **LDAP-native administration:** Manage users, groups, and posix attributes directly against `svc-db-openldap`.
- **Containerized deployment:** Run FusionDirectory through Docker Compose with the project's standard role-meta wiring.
- **Native OIDC SSO via SSO-proxy sidecar:** Gate the FusionDirectory web UI through the project's SSO-proxy sidecar (provided by `web-app-keycloak`) for OIDC-authenticated entry.
- **Front-proxy integration:** Publish the app through `sys-stk-front-proxy` for TLS termination and per-domain routing.

## Quick Setup

### Development

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

```bash
git clone https://github.com/infinito-nexus/core.git
cd core
make onboard
make compose-deploy mode=reinstall apps=web-app-fusiondirectory full_cycle=false
```

### Production

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

```bash
APP=web-app-fusiondirectory
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'
```

## Persona contract opt-outs

The shared `biber` and `administrator` persona journeys are opted out via `PERSONA_BIBER_BLOCKED` / `PERSONA_ADMINISTRATOR_BLOCKED` in `templates/playwright.env.j2`.
The oauth2-proxy sidecar only gates the vhost — FusionDirectory keeps its own LDAP-bind login behind it, which the role's OIDC scenario in `files/playwright/playwright.spec.js` asserts by expecting a "Sign in" button to still be visible after the Keycloak round-trip.
`tasks/main.yml` provisions no FusionDirectory account, so the Keycloak identity maps to no directory session the shared helpers could carry through to an in-app logout.
