# Common baseline applied to both prod hosts: Docker engine, a non-sudo deploy
# service account, SSH hardening, a default-deny firewall, fail2ban, unattended
# security upgrades and time sync. Every task is idempotent.

# --- Deploy service account ----------------------------------------------------

# --- Firewall (default deny incoming) ------------------------------------------

# --- Swap file (OOM cushion) ---------------------------------------------------
# The prod main host is tight (1.9 GiB) and the per-container memory caps
# (docker-compose.prod.yml) sum to more than RAM, so a simultaneous spike could hit
# the kernel OOM-killer (which might pick postgres). A small swap absorbs the
# overshoot. Idempotent; skipped when swap_size == "0". Builtin-only (no ansible.posix).

  ansible.builtin.lineinfile:
    path: /etc/fstab
    line: "/swapfile none swap sw 0 0"
    regexp: '^/swapfile\s'
    state: present
  when: swap_size != "0"

- name: Keep swap a cushion, not a hot path (low swappiness)
  ansible.builtin.copy:
    dest: /etc/sysctl.d/60-scrabble-swap.conf
    mode: "0644"
    content: "vm.swappiness = {{ swap_swappiness }}\n"

# --- Deploy directories --------------------------------------------------------
