docs(collection): document all roles and fix metadata drift
Replace ansible-galaxy init placeholders across the collection and
correct documentation that drifted from the code, after a multi-agent
review of every role README against its defaults, tasks and templates.

Collection level:
- README: role table for all 16 roles, requirements and role-ordering
- galaxy.yml: declare community.docker and community.general deps,
  real description/tags/urls; normalize license to MIT-0
- meta/runtime.yml: requires_ansible '>=2.15.0'
- plugins/README: document the homarr_layout filter and
  garage_credentials lookup instead of scaffold boilerplate

Per-role meta/main.yml and README for the placeholder roles
(389ds, authentik, authentik_outpost_ldap, base, collabora, drawio,
garage, homarr, httpbin, keycloak, nextcloud, opencloud, traefik).

Correctness fixes found during review:
- keycloak: wrong domain default, drop invented keycloak_cert_resolver,
  document the provisioning feature
- garage: root_domain is .s3.<first-entry>, not the bare domain
- opnform: jwt/front_api secrets use `openssl rand -hex 32`; align the
  validation fail_msg in tasks/main.yml accordingly
- send: S3 example references garage_s3_domains[0] (was singular)
- opencloud: document required opencloud_wopi_domain

License normalized to MIT-0 across galaxy.yml, role meta and READMEs to
match the SPDX headers.

base

Host baseline for the Digitalboard platform. Installs Docker (engine, CLI, containerd, buildx, compose plugin) and a small set of apt and convenience packages on Debian/Ubuntu, and sets the shared directory layout every other role builds on.

This role is intended to run first on every host, before any service role.

What it does

  • Installs Docker prerequisites (apt-transport-https, ca-certificates, curl, gnupg, lsb-release, apache2-utils for htpasswd) plus convenience packages (htop, ncdu, vim) and Docker itself (docker-ce, docker-ce-cli, containerd.io, docker-buildx-plugin, docker-compose-plugin).
  • Optionally configures Docker registry mirrors via /etc/docker/daemon.json.
  • Starts and enables the Docker service and writes a custom /etc/motd.

This role defines the shared directory-layout variables (docker_compose_base_dir, docker_volume_base_dir) that every service role consumes, but the per-service subdirectories are created by the respective service roles, not here.

Role variables

Variable Default Description
docker_compose_base_dir /etc/docker/compose Root directory for per-service Compose projects.
docker_volume_base_dir /srv/data Root directory for per-service persistent volumes.
docker_registry_mirrors [] Optional list of registry mirror URLs; empty disables mirrors.

Example

- hosts: all
  become: true
  roles:
    - digitalboard.core.base
