# CLAUDE.md This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository. ## Purpose Infrastructure-as-code for a Strato VPS at cloud.ladkau.de. Every config change must be committed — the git history is the change log. The goal is a fully reproducible reinstall from this repo alone. ## Key commands ```bash # Install Ansible collections (one-time, after cloning) ansible-galaxy collection install -r ansible/requirements.yml # Run the full playbook (most common operation) ansible-playbook -i ansible/inventory.ini ansible/site.yml --ask-vault-pass # Run a single role ansible-playbook -i ansible/inventory.ini ansible/site.yml --tags mail --ask-vault-pass # Bootstrap a fresh server (before Ansible can run — creates the deploy user) bash scripts/run-bootstrap.sh # Verify all vault secrets are present and valid bash scripts/check-vault.sh # Verify all services are reachable bash scripts/check-services.sh # Edit encrypted secrets ansible-vault edit ansible/group_vars/all/vault.yml # Connect to server ssh -i keys/notroot_cloud_ladkau_de deploy@217.154.207.148 ``` Local dependencies: `pip install ansible passlib` and `openssl`. ## Architecture ### Provisioning flow 1. `scripts/run-bootstrap.sh` — copies and runs `bootstrap-deploy-user.sh` on the server as root; creates the `deploy` user with the SSH public key from `keys/notroot_cloud_ladkau_de.pub` 2. `ansible-playbook ansible/site.yml` — runs all roles in order against the `deploy` user (passwordless sudo) ### Role → service → data directory Each role deploys one Docker Compose stack. The pattern is: - **Template** lives in `roles//templates/docker-compose.yml.j2` - Ansible renders it and writes it to `/opt//docker-compose.yml` on the server - Data/config for each service lives under `/opt//` on the server - The role also writes any config files (e.g. `dovecot.conf`, `passwd`, `fetchmailrc`) to `/opt//` before starting the stack ### Networking Two Docker networks: - `traefik_public` (external, created once by the `traefik` role) — all services that need HTTPS exposure join this network alongside Traefik - Per-service internal networks (e.g. `mail_internal`) — isolate backend containers (databases, Dovecot) from the internet Traefik routes HTTP/HTTPS/IMAPS via Docker labels on each service container. TLS certificates are issued via Let's Encrypt ACME. IMAPS (993) is handled as a TCP passthrough — Traefik terminates TLS and forwards plain IMAP to Dovecot port 143. ### Secrets All secrets live in `ansible/group_vars/all/vault.yml` (Ansible Vault, AES-256). Plain variables are in `ansible/group_vars/all/vars.yml` — commented-out keys there show what each role expects from the vault. `scripts/check-vault.sh` validates all required keys are present. Passwords that need bcrypt hashes (Traefik dashboard, container registry) are stored as plaintext in the vault and hashed in the Jinja2 templates at deploy time using `password_hash('bcrypt', ...)`. The `passlib` Python package is required locally for this. ### Mail stack specifics The mail role deploys four containers on `mail_internal`: `mail-db` (PostgreSQL for Roundcube), `dovecot` (IMAP server), `roundcube` (webmail at mail.ladkau.de), and conditionally `fetchmail` (polls external POP3 accounts). - Dovecot uses passwd-file auth: `roles/mail/templates/passwd.j2` generates `/opt/mail/passwd` with 8-field format (`user:hash::::::`) — the trailing `::::::` is required for userdb lookup - Fetchmail delivers via LMTP to Dovecot port 24; the `auth_username_format = %Ln` in Dovecot's LMTP config strips the `@dovecot` domain that fetchmail appends - Fetchmail 6.6.x rcfile syntax: `ssl` is a user-level option (inline after `password`), port is `smtphost dovecot/24` (slash-separated), `smtpport` keyword does not exist - `mail.ladkau.de` is the Roundcube webmail client, not an MTA — no outgoing SMTP server is configured ### Gitea Actions runners The `act_runner` role deploys three `gitea/act_runner` containers (Docker executor). Each runner handles one concurrent job. Key details: - Runners connect to Gitea via the public HTTPS URL — no internal Docker network needed - Each runner gets its own data dir (`/opt/act_runner/runner-N/`) for its `.runner` registration file - All runners share a single `config.yml` at `/opt/act_runner/config.yml` - `/var/run/docker.sock` is mounted — job containers are spawned directly on the host - `gitea_runner_registration_token` is obtained from Gitea admin UI **after** Gitea is running; add it to the vault and then deploy with `--tags act_runner` ### SSO Keycloak at `sso.ladkau.de` is the identity provider. Gitea and Nextcloud are configured post-provisioning to use it (see `docs/runbook-configuration.md`). ## Runbooks - `docs/runbook-provisioning.md` — step-by-step reinstall from scratch - `docs/runbook-configuration.md` — first-run service configuration (Keycloak realm, Gitea admin, Nextcloud OIDC, etc.) - `docs/runbook-mail-import.md` — migrating mbox-format mail from an old Dovecot server to Maildir++
