kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 4.7 80c396b839 refactor(env+install/spot): collapse python/venv resolution into shell SPOT
Pulls VENV/PYTHON/PIP/PYTHONPATH out of the dotenv handler pipeline
into scripts/meta/python/detect.sh. load.sh now sources detect.sh and
prepends ${VENV}/bin to PATH above the INFINITO_ENV_LOADED guard, so
every BASH_ENV re-entry re-resolves PYTHON the moment a venv
materialises mid-chain — the same fix as b79ed2869 but at the SPOT,
which retires the reload-trick from ansible.sh, python.sh and
pre-commit.sh.

Also renames INVENTORY_VARS_FILE → INFINITO_INVENTORY_VARS_FILE under
the new env-prefix lint, drops the 5 dead INFINITO_ENV_*_LOADED unsets
left over from the multi-loader era, and adds a lint guarding the
INFINITO_ prefix invariant on env/*.env keys.

utils/env 📐

This directory hosts the Python implementation behind make dotenv. For the general rules that govern READMEs in code directories see documentation.md. For the per-variable defaults that this code consumes see default.env.

Purpose 🎯

The package converts the committed default.env plus a small runtime context into the gitignored .env at the repo root. Every module here belongs to one of four roles: parse, resolve, orchestrate, write.

Structure 🗂️

File Role
parser.py Read default.env into (values, comments) tuples.
runtime.py Resolve host-context lookups (disk, RAM, hostname, GHA/Act flags, /proc/version, helper-script invocation).
builder.py Thin orchestrator that defines EnvBuilder, BuildContext, and build_env(). Walks the handler registry.
writer.py Serialise an EnvBuilder into a docker-compose-compatible .env on disk.
handlers/ One module per dynamically-computed variable. See handlers README.

The CLI entry point lives at __main__.py under cli/meta/env/. Shell consumers source load.sh under scripts/meta/env/.

File Naming 🏷️

  • Module names MUST stay lowercase snake_case.
  • Pure passthrough or simple parser/writer helpers MUST live directly under utils/env/.
  • Per-variable computation MUST live under handlers/ (see handlers README for the naming convention used there).
  • Test files live in tests/unit/utils/env/ and mirror the module name with a test_ prefix.

Import Rules 🔗

  • parser.py, runtime.py, and writer.py MUST NOT import from builder.py or handlers/.
  • builder.py MUST NOT import individual handler modules; it MUST go through the ORDERED_HANDLERS list exposed by handlers/__init__.py.
  • Handler modules MUST NOT import each other (see handlers README).
