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.

OnlyOffice

Description

This Ansible role deploys the ONLYOFFICE Document Server in Docker to provide real-time, in-browser editing for documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. It automates the setup of the Document Server container, Nginx reverse proxy configuration, network isolation via Docker networks, and environment variable management for secure integration with Nextcloud or other WOPI-compatible platforms.

Overview

  • Dockerized ONLYOFFICE Document Server: Uses the official onlyoffice/documentserver image.
  • Nginx Reverse Proxy: Configures a public-facing proxy with TLS termination for / and internal API calls.
  • Docker Network Management: Creates an isolated /28 subnet for ONLYOFFICE and connects containers securely.
  • Environment Configuration: Generates a .env file containing domain, credentials, and JWT configuration for secure document editing.

Features

  • Automatic creation of a dedicated Docker network for ONLYOFFICE.
  • Proxy configuration template for Nginx with long timeouts.
  • Customizable domain names and ports via Ansible variables.
  • Support for SSL/TLS termination at the proxy level.
  • Optional JWT signing for secure communication between Nextcloud and Document Server.
  • Integration hooks to restart Nginx and recreate Docker Compose stacks on changes.

Documentation

See the roles README.md, task files, and Jinja2 templates in the roles/web-svc-onlyoffice directory for usage examples and variable definitions.
