Content Delivery Network

CDN helper role for building a consistent asset tree, URLs, and on-disk layout.

Description

Provides compact filters and defaults to define CDN paths, turn them into public URLs, collect required directories, and prepare the filesystem (including a latest release link).

Overview

Defines a per-role CDN structure under roles/<application_id>/<version> plus shared and vendor areas. Exposes ready-to-use variables (cdn, cdn_dirs, cdn_urls) and ensures directories exist. Optionally links the current release to latest.

Features

Jinja filters: cdn_paths, cdn_urls, cdn_dirs
Variables: CDN_ROOT, CDN_VERSION, CDN_BASE_URL, cdn, cdn_dirs, cdn_urls
Creates shared/vendor/release directories
Maintains roles/<id>/latest symlink (when version ≠ latest)
Plays nicely with web-svc-cdn without circular inclusion
