We don't really fix these, but just suppress them,
because they're like that intentionally.
We try to name variables in a way that is consistent with the
configuration key they control. If the upstream component uses
camelCase, we also need to include camelCase in the variable name.
This commit adds a 'matrix-ntfy' role that runs Ntfy server in Docker with
simple configuration, and plumbing to add the role to the playbook.

Fedora 35 is:
- `ansible_os_family = 'RedHat'`
- `ansible_distribution_major_version = '35'`
Our RedHat checks against v7/v8 are really for RHEL derivatives (CentOS, Rockylinux,
AlmaLinux), but the same checks (by coincidence) apply for Fedora 35.
The problem is that `'35' > '7'` (comparing these as strings) is
`false`.
This patch makes sure that we always cast
`ansible_distribution_major_version` to an integer.
Fixes https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/1610
Not hardcoding 'CentOS' and using the OS family ('RedHat') instead,
we now behave better on Rockylinux and AlmaLinux, etc.
With that said, we may or may not fully support CentOS/Rockylinux/AlmaLinux v8 yet.
Certain things were improved in
https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/300.
v8 support is discussed here: https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/300
Certain things (firewalld?) may still be problematic. This patch does not try to address those.
If the remaining issues are confirmed to be fixed in the future, we can mark v8 as supported.
Also get rid of `--tags=update-user-password` in the
`matrix-dendrite` role, as what we had doesn't work.
We may be able to do it with some Ansible helper or something else.
For now, we'll omit this feature.
The goal is to have a single variable which tells us which homeserver
software is in use. Much simpler than having if/elif/elif checks for
variables like (`matrix_synapse_enabled` and `matrix_dendrite_enabled`, etc.)
everywhere.
These are just defensive cleanup tasks that we run.
In the good case, there's nothing to kill or remove, so they trigger an
error like this:
> Error response from daemon: Cannot kill container: something: No such container: something
and:
> Error: No such container: something
People often ask us if this is a problem, so instead of always having to
answer with "no, this is to be expected", we'd rather eliminate it now
and make logs cleaner.
In the event that:
- a container is really stuck and needs cleanup using kill/rm
- and cleanup fails, and we fail to report it because of error
suppression (`2>/dev/null`)
.. we'd still get an error when launching ("container name already in use .."),
so it shouldn't be too hard to investigate.
