The inline repo definition pinned gpgkey to www.centos.org, a single non-CDN origin. In run 30937913632 it was unreachable for at least 17m25s and killed 2 of 23 centos ganesha installs; dnf's own retries=5 was already active on the host and did not help. centos-release-nfs-ganesha11 ships the same repo with metalink failover and gpgkey=file://, planting the key through Requires: centos-release-storage-common. Verified end to end against quay.io/centos/centos:latest and ghcr.io/kevinveenbirkenbach/pkgmgr-centos:stable. The BOOTSTRAP_BASEURL entry keeps the availability probe verifying both names instead of degrading them to an inconclusive warning. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
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/*).
