kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5.5 c65c5ce48c fix(update): pin only image tags the registry carries
7e82ba6d71 moved web-app-bigbluebutton's bbb-pads to v1.5.11, the tag
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bigbluebutton/docker/develop/repos/tags
names for the bbb-pads source. alangecker/bbb-docker-pads has no such
image (Docker Hub: newest v1.5.8), so every BigBlueButton deploy pulls a
missing tag and test-external fails "These pinned Docker images do not
exist in their registry (HTTP 404): web-app-bigbluebutton/bbb-pads".

bbb-pads goes back to v1.5.8. The version-source updater now knows the
image a `version` pin tags (pulled directly or as the base of a custom
build) and withholds a bump when the registry answers 404 for the new
tag; an indeterminate answer does not block it, the same line
test-external draws. Run against main, the updater now reports no
update for bbb-pads instead of v1.5.11.

Shared Utilities (utils/)

This directory contains shared Python helpers used by custom modules and plugins.

Purpose

Use utils/ for reusable code that should not be duplicated across:

  • library/ modules,
  • plugins/action/,
  • plugins/filter/,
  • plugins/lookup/.

Typical shared utilities:

  • API clients,
  • validation/conversion helpers,
  • path and configuration helpers,
  • cross-plugin/module domain logic.
  • Shared HTTP(S) connection handler for multiple modules.
  • Common validation or transformation functions for user input.
  • Utility functions for interacting with Docker, LDAP, etc.
  • Grouped helper packages such as utils/domains/ for related domain logic.

Design Guidelines

  • Keep helpers focused and composable.
  • Avoid side effects during import.
  • Prefer explicit function/class APIs over implicit globals.
  • Keep dependencies minimal so modules/plugins stay lightweight.

Example Import

from utils.domains.primary_domain import get_primary_domain

What Does Not Belong Here

  • Standalone executable modules (put in library/).
  • Ansible plugin entrypoints (put in plugins/*).
