kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5 e14e73fba0 refactor(docker): let a moving tag declare itself with the marker it already has
A pin outside semver was given its own 'docker-ref' marker on the theory
that every class needs one. That holds for a digest and not for a tag. A
digest pin declares something about the registry, that bytes move under a
standing tag, which no other choice says. A tag outside semver declares
that upstream publishes nothing orderable, which is exactly what
'docker-version' already means and what minio and the act runner already
carry on their version lines.

Keeping both would have put '# nocheck: docker-version, docker-ref' on
every such line: two keys, two checks, one sentence said twice. 'docker-ref'
is dropped instead. It lived in this one mapping, was never entered in the
suppression catalog, and no check ever read it.

The semver entry goes with it, because a semver pin never needs a
declaration. The test that asserted three distinct rules is replaced by two
that pin the separation where it is real: a digest marker differs from a
tag marker, and a semver pin has no marker at all.

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/*).
