Every script a role ships now lives under `files/<language>/`, and the unit
suite is split the same way: `tests/unit/python/` beside new sibling trees for
the other languages. `tests/lint/filesystem/test_role_files_layout.py` keeps it
that way; directories whose shape is dictated from outside carry a `.nocheck`
naming the constraint (Docker build contexts, WordPress mu-plugins, the Joomla
extension, Odoo addons, Playwright suites, the `files/test/test.sh` harness
that `test-e2e-cli` resolves generically).

This cannot be applied in halves. Moving a file and repointing what names it
are the same change: 14 references resolve only at deploy time, so the tree is
green either before or after, never between.

Those 14 were found by static resolution over every reference class, not by the
test suite -- a full `make quality-high` was green while all of them were
broken:

  * 7 `src:` values built from a role variable holding a bare filename
    (svc-bkp-remote-2-local, decidim, espocrm, friendica, joomla, pixelfed x2).
    The variable doubles as the destination name inside the container, so the
    language segment belongs at the call site, not in the variable.
  * `sys-service/tasks/04_base.yml` resolved every consumer's systemd script
    through `first_found(..., errors='strict')` over `files/script.{sh,py}`.
    18 roles ship exactly that and have no template fallback: the play would
    have died on each.
  * `sys-front-inj-javascript` fell back to `<role>/files/javascript.js`; the
    interface now reads `files/javascript/javascript.js`.
  * `sys-front-inj-logout/templates/head_sub.j2` built the cache-busting mtime
    path through `path_absolute(... 'files', ...)`.
  * 4 `ansible.builtin.script:` invocations naming a bare command
    (pull.py, prune.sh, set_postgres_superuser_password.sh, ganesha-serve.sh).
  * `dev-python/files/shell/install.sh` pointed at a sibling role's script.

Depth-dependent paths inside the moved trees were bumped accordingly: 59
`parents[N]` computations, 12 relative climbs, and the per-role recover CLI,
whose path `cli/administration/recover/recoverers.py` still assembled from the
pre-move location.

utils/install

This directory hosts the Python implementation behind make install-lint. For the general rules that govern READMEs in code directories see documentation.md.

Purpose

The package installs the lint toolchain (actionlint, shfmt, ruff, ansible-lint, mbake, markdownlint-cli2, eslint, shellcheck, ansible-playbook, ansible-galaxy) using the right channel per tool (system package manager, pip, npm, or GitHub release). Modules at this level are channel-agnostic primitives; per-tool policy lives one level down in lint/.

Structure

File Role
primitives.py Logging, sudo wrapping, PATH mutation, and stdlib-based URL download.
pip.py Venv-aware pip installer with --break-system-packages and --user fallback.
npm.py Global / local npm install with per-user --prefix fallback.
github_release.py Latest-tag resolver and asset downloader for GitHub releases.
system_pkg.py Per-manager dispatch for pacman / apt-get / dnf / yum / brew.
lint/ One module per tool, each exposing ensure(). See lint README.

The CLI entry point lives at __main__.py, invoked from lint.sh as python3 -m utils.install.lint. The matching dispatcher wrapper.sh routes make install-lint host vs container based on INFINITO_LINT_RUNNER.

File Naming

  • Module names MUST stay lowercase snake_case.
  • Channel-agnostic helpers MUST live directly under utils/install/.
  • Per-tool policy (one tool per file) MUST live under lint/ (see lint README).
  • Test files live in tests/unit/python/utils/install/ and mirror the module name with a test_ prefix.

Import Rules

  • primitives.py MUST NOT import from any other module in this package.
  • pip.py, npm.py, github_release.py, and system_pkg.py MAY import from primitives.py.
  • npm.py MAY import from system_pkg.py to bootstrap npm itself; no other cross-imports between these four are allowed.
  • Per-tool modules under lint/ MUST NOT import each other (see lint README).
