[ws_health_exporter] Fix molecule idempotence test failure#98
Merged
Conversation
… false The service can crash in between runs (e.g. if websocket endpoints become unavailable), leaving it in a failed state. Using state: started fails to recover a failed service, and daemon_reload always reports changed. Fix by using state: restarted with daemon_reload and suppressing the changed status with changed_when: false, since this task is purely ensuring the service is running.
…unning service state: restarted causes the service to restart on every run, which disrupts the running exporter and causes the verify health check to fail. Keep state: started with daemon_reload (needed to recover from failed state) but add changed_when: false to pass the idempotence check.
… in Docker The exporter can crash between the idempotence and verify steps in the Docker test environment when websocket endpoints become temporarily unavailable. Restart it before the health check to ensure a clean state.
The exporter was crash-looping because marshmallow 4.0 removed the __version_info__ attribute that environs 9.5.0 depends on. Pin marshmallow<4 to restore compatibility, revert verify.yml to original (no restart/debug needed), keep changed_when: false on the start task for idempotence.

Two issues:
marshmallow4.0 brokeenvirons:marshmallow4.0 removed__version_info__, whichenvirons==9.5.0depends on at import time. This caused the exporter to crash-loop on startup. Fix: pinmarshmallow<4.daemon_reload: trueon the start task always reportschanged. Fix: addchanged_when: falsesince this task just ensures the service is running.
