## Summary - Create `docs/reference/tools/` with four reference cards: Dagger (build engine), ArgoCD CLI (deployment workflows), Ansible (config management), and Pulumi (DNS/Tailscale IaC) - Move `ansible/roles.md` → `tools/ansible.md`, broadened with CLI patterns and dry-run usage - Update `reference.md` index: add "Tools" section, remove old "Ansible" section - Update `update-documentation.md` to reflect Dagger build process (workflow steps, manual build recipe, runner environment) - Update `adopt-dagger-ci.md` plan to note how-to articles were handled via reference card + existing how-to updates - Fix all broken `[[roles]]` wiki-links across 5 files → `[[ansible]]` ## Verification - `docs-check-links` ✓ — no broken wiki-links - `docs-check-index` ✓ — all docs referenced in category index - `docs-check-filenames` ✓ — no duplicate filenames - All pre-commit hooks pass Reviewed-on: https://forge.ops.eblu.me/eblume/blumeops/pulls/178

# Dagger
|
||
|
||
Build engine for BlumeOps CI/CD pipelines. Replaces shell-based build scripts with Python functions that run identically locally and in CI.
|
||
|
||
## Quick Reference
|
||
|
||
| Property | Value |
|
||
|----------|-------|
|
||
| **Module** | `blumeops-ci` |
|
||
| **Engine Version** | v0.19.11 |
|
||
| **SDK** | Python |
|
||
| **Source** | `.dagger/src/blumeops_ci/main.py` |
|
||
| **Config** | `dagger.json` |
|
||
|
||
## Functions
|
||
|
||
| Function | Signature | Description |
|
||
|----------|-----------|-------------|
|
||
| `build` | `(src, container_name) → Container` | Build a container from `containers/<name>/Dockerfile` |
|
||
| `publish` | `(src, container_name, version, registry?) → str` | Build and push to registry (default: `registry.ops.eblu.me`) |
|
||
| `build_changelog` | `(src, version) → Directory` | Run towncrier to collect changelog fragments |
|
||
| `build_docs` | `(src, version) → File` | Build changelog then Quartz site, return docs tarball |
|
||
|
||
## CLI Examples
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Build a container
|
||
dagger call build --src=. --container-name=devpi
|
||
|
||
# Drop into container shell for inspection
|
||
dagger call build --src=. --container-name=devpi terminal
|
||
|
||
# Debug a failure interactively
|
||
dagger call --interactive build --src=. --container-name=devpi
|
||
|
||
# Publish a container to zot
|
||
dagger call publish --src=. --container-name=devpi --version=v1.1.0
|
||
|
||
# Build docs tarball locally
|
||
dagger call build-docs --src=. --version=dev export --path=./docs-dev.tar.gz
|
||
|
||
# Debug a docs build failure
|
||
dagger call --interactive build-docs --src=. --version=dev
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Secrets
|
||
|
||
Dagger has a first-class `Secret` type — values are never logged or cached. Pass secrets from environment variables using the `env:VAR` syntax:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
dagger call release-docs \
|
||
--src=. --version=v1.6.0 \
|
||
--forgejo-token=env:FORGEJO_TOKEN \
|
||
--argocd-token=env:ARGOCD_TOKEN
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In [[forgejo]] Actions, secrets are injected as env vars. Locally, mise tasks call `op read` to populate them.
|
||
|
||
## Caveats
|
||
|
||
- **Pre-1.0 API** — Current version is v0.19.x. Pin the CLI version and test upgrades on a branch before adopting.
|
||
- **Privileged container** — The Dagger engine requires privileged container access. The Forgejo runner's DinD sidecar provides this.
