kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5 7bc12e55f3 fix(docs): drop the generated sections the designer merge put back
aceb5295ef moved Cosmos, Quick Setup and Credits out of the committed role
READMEs and into the documentation build's own scratch checkout, so a
committed copy can no longer go stale when the metadata moves. Merging
feature/designer (ebad39422c) took origin/main's side of those files, which
still carries them, and reinstated all 290 along with the cosmos make target
and its i8cos alias. tests/lint/ansible/roles/test_readme.py hard-fails on a
committed copy, and the reinstated Credits block credited one person with two
URLs, which tripped the credits-attribution lint as well.

Stripped with the repository's own fence-aware parser against
MANAGED_SECTIONS, not with a line filter: the Cosmos block holds a mermaid
fence a naive filter would cut through. The result is byte-identical to
aceb5295ef for every README that carries no prose change since.

The cosmos target wrote the forbidden section straight back into the
checkout, so it goes with them.

Webserver HTTPS Provisioning

Description

The sys-svc-webserver-https role extends a basic NGINX installation by wiring in everything you need to serve content over HTTPS:

  1. Ensures your NGINX server is configured for SSL/TLS.
  2. Pulls in Let’s Encrypt ACME challenge handling.
  3. Applies global cleanup of unused domain configs.

This role is built on top of your existing sys-svc-webserver-core role, and it automates the end-to-end process of turning HTTP sites into secure HTTPS sites.


Overview

When you apply sys-svc-webserver-https, it will:

  1. Include the sys-svc-webserver-core role to install and configure NGINX.
  2. Clean up any stale vHost files under sys-svc-cln-domains.
  3. Deploy the Let’s Encrypt challenge-and-redirect snippet from sys-svc-letsencrypt.
  4. Reload NGINX automatically when any template changes.

All tasks are idempotent. Once your certificates are in place and your configuration is set, Ansible will skip unchanged steps on subsequent runs.


Features

  • 🔒 Automatic HTTPS Redirect
    Sets up port 80 → 443 redirect and serves /.well-known/acme-challenge/ for Certbot.

  • 🔑 Let’s Encrypt Integration
    Pulls in challenge configuration and CAA-record management for automatic certificate issuance and renewal.

  • 🧹 Domain Cleanup
    Removes obsolete or orphaned server blocks before enabling HTTPS.

  • 🚦 Handler-Safe
    Triggers an NGINX reload only when necessary, minimizing service interruptions.
