kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5.5 d3ca143343 docs(roles): regenerate READMEs for Stalwart as the mail provider
MAIL_PROVIDER moved to web-app-stalwart without a make docs run, so every generated README still drew Mailu as the email dependency. This is the generator output for the current tree: the root role table and each role cosmos now name Stalwart, Mailu loses its dependents, and Stalwart gains its swarm marker, the Tor dependencies and the 0..0 edges.

The hand-written cosmos of svc-net-tor-smtp gives way to the generated one, which no longer shows the SOCKS5 hop through svc-net-tor because the role does not declare that dependency.

PhpMyAdmin

Description

This Ansible role deploys PhpMyAdmin in a secure Docker environment, complete with optional OAuth2 proxy support. It enables seamless management of MariaDB/MySQL databases via a web-app-based interface.

Overview

The role configures and deploys a containerized PhpMyAdmin instance using Docker Compose. It optionally integrates with a central database and uses dynamic Ansible variables to support flexible deployments in both production and homelab environments.

Cosmos

The diagram places PhpMyAdmin 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 a reliable, configurable, and secure PhpMyAdmin deployment out-of-the-box. It minimizes the need for manual setup, and integrates smoothly with other Infinito.Nexus infrastructure roles.

Features

  • Docker Compose Integration: Deploy PhpMyAdmin via a templated Compose setup.
  • OAuth2 Proxy Support: Secure your admin interface with modern authentication.
  • Central DB Integration: Connects to shared MariaDB instances for multi-role environments.
  • Custom Configuration: Leverage Ansible variables to fine-tune your deployment.
  • Healthchecks & Networking: Includes Docker healthchecks and network setup logic.

Quick Setup

Development

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

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

Production

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

APP=web-app-phpmyadmin
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

phpMyAdmin signs in as the MariaDB root account wired through PMA_USER / PMA_PASSWORD (templates/env.j2, vars/main.yml); the Keycloak administrator username is not a MariaDB user, so in the services.sso.enabled: false matrix variants the administrator persona has no native login to drive and templates/playwright.env.j2 renders PERSONA_ADMINISTRATOR_BLOCKED=true. meta/services.yml admits only the web-app-phpmyadmin administrator RBAC group to the oauth2-proxy (sso.oauth2.allowed_groups) and biber carries an empty role list, so PERSONA_BIBER_BLOCKED=true holds in every variant. The guest persona and the baseline assertions run unconditionally.
