Kevin Veen-Birkenbach 379b1d420e Refactor MariaDB and PostgreSQL roles for Ansible 2.20 compatibility and Infinito.Nexus conventions
- Replace legacy docker_container-based MariaDB deployment with docker-compose based workflow
- Add custom Dockerfile and docker-compose templates for MariaDB
- Split MariaDB command into separate arguments to avoid entrypoint parsing errors
- Introduce MARIADB_CUSTOM_IMAGE and MARIADB_EXPOSE_LOCAL variables
- Add docker_compose_flush_handlers to ensure correct handler execution on first run
- Replace utils/once/finalize.yml with utils/once/flag.yml for new run-once semantics
- Align variable naming with Infinito.Nexus UPPERCASE conventions
- Fix PostgreSQL custom image variable name (POSTGRES_CUSTOM_IMAGE_NAME → POSTGRES_CUSTOM_IMAGE)
- Remove obsolete flush_handlers var injection in svc-db-postgres/tasks/main.yml
- General cleanup after migration from Ansible 2.18 → 2.20

PostgreSQL

Description

This Ansible role deploys and configures a PostgreSQL database in a Docker container using Docker Compose. It is designed to simplify database administration by automating the creation of networks, containers, and essential database tasks (such as database and user creation) for a secure and high-performance environment.

Overview

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

  • Sets up a dedicated Docker network for PostgreSQL.
  • Deploys a PostgreSQL container with secure configurations and automated healthchecks.
  • Automates tasks like database creation, user setup, and privilege assignments to streamline your workflows.

Purpose

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

Features

  • Automated Deployment: Installs PostgreSQL with minimal manual steps.
  • Robust Administration: Automatically creates databases, users, and assigns privileges.
  • Enhanced Security: The service is bound to 127.0.0.1:5432, restricting access and enhancing security.
  • Seamless Docker Integration: Works harmoniously with Docker Compose and other roles in your infrastructure.
