Kevin Veen-Birkenbach 716ebef33b Refactor task includes and update variable handling for Ansible 2.20 migration
This commit updates multiple roles to ensure compatibility with Ansible 2.20.
Several include paths and task-loading mechanisms required adjustments,
as Ansible 2.20 applies stricter evaluation rules for complex Jinja expressions
and no longer resolves certain relative include paths the way Ansible 2.18 did.

Key changes:
- Replaced legacy once_finalize.yml and once_flag.yml with the new structure
  under tasks/utils/once/finalize.yml and tasks/utils/once/flag.yml.
- Updated all include_tasks statements to use 'path_join' with playbook_dir,
  ensuring deterministic and absolute file resolution across roles.
- Fixed all network helper includes by converting direct relative paths such as
  'roles/docker-compose/tasks/utils/network.yml' to proper Jinja-evaluated paths.
- Normalized MATOMO_* variable names for consistency with the updated variable
  scope behavior in Ansible 2.20.
- Removed deprecated patterns that were implicitly supported in Ansible 2.18
  but break under the more strict variable and path resolution model in 2.20.

These changes are part of the full migration step required to ensure the
infinito-nexus roles remain stable, deterministic, and forward-compatible with
Ansible 2.20.

Taiga

Description

Taiga is a powerful and intuitive open-source project management platform tailored for agile teams. Whether you're practicing Scrum, Kanban, or a custom hybrid workflow, Taiga offers a rich, customizable environment to plan, track, and collaborate on your projects — without the complexity of enterprise tools or the vendor lock-in of SaaS platforms.

This Ansible role deploys Taiga in a Docker-based environment, allowing fast, reproducible, and secure installations. It also optionally integrates OpenID Connect (OIDC) for single sign-on via providers like Keycloak.


Why Taiga?

Taiga is ideal for developers, designers, and agile teams who want:

  • Beautiful UI: Clean, modern, and responsive interface.
  • 📌 Agile Workflows: Supports Scrum, Kanban, Scrumban, and Epics.
  • 🗃️ Backlog & Sprint Management: Create user stories, tasks, and sprints with ease.
  • 📈 Burn-down Charts & Metrics: Monitor velocity and progress.
  • 🔄 Custom Workflows: Define your own states, priorities, and permissions.
  • 📎 Attachments & Wiki: Collaborate with file uploads and internal documentation.
  • 🔐 SSO/Authentication Plugins: OpenID Connect, LDAP, GitHub, GitLab and more.
  • 🌍 Multilingual UI: Used by teams worldwide.

Purpose

This role automates the deployment and configuration of a complete, production-ready Taiga stack using Docker Compose. It ensures integration with common infrastructure tools such as Nginx, PostgreSQL, and RabbitMQ, while optionally enabling OpenID Connect authentication for enterprise-grade SSO.

By using this role, teams can set up Taiga in minutes on Arch Linux systems — whether in a homelab, dev environment, or production cluster.


Features

  • 🐳 Docker-Based Deployment: Easy containerized setup of backend, frontend, async workers, and events service.
  • 🔐 OIDC (Single Sign-On): Supported via:
  • 📨 Email Backend: Supports SMTP and console backends for development.
  • 🔁 Async & Realtime Events: Includes RabbitMQ and support for Taigas event system.
  • 🌐 Reverse Proxy Ready: Integrates with Nginx using the sys-stk-front-proxy role.
  • 🧩 Composable Design: Integrates cleanly with other Infinito.Nexus infrastructure roles.
