[READ ONLY] Ansible role to install Certbot and generate SSL certificates via Letsencrypt (standalone plugin).

Letsencrypt standalone

This role's duty is to install Certbot and to obtain SSL certificates via Letsencrypt using the standalone plugin.

Furthermore, a cron job will be set up to attempt renewal of already generated certificates (if needed) at a random hour/minute twice a day.

Variables

letsencrypt_path

Path where Certbot binary should be installed. By default, this is /usr/local/bin.

letsencrypt_staging

Whether to use staging CA to issue certificates. Using this CA will noticeably increase API limits, but this option should be used for testing purposes only, as the resulting certificate will not be trusted by user browsers. By default, this option is disabled.

letsencrypt_renew

Whether to set up automated renewal of certificates that are close to their expiration date. It is highly recommended that you leave this turned on. By default, this option is enabled.

letsencrypt_email

Email address to be used when issuing requests to Letsencrypt. By default, this option is webmaster@{{ ansible_fqdn }} (e.g. [email protected]). Despite not strictly necessary, you SHOULD customize this setting.

letsencrypt_domains

List of domains to generate certificates for. A single certificate valid for all listed domains will be generated. By default, this list is empty (i.e. no certificate is generated).

Example

---
letsencrypt_staging: yes
letsencrypt_renew: yes

letsencrypt_email: "[email protected]"
letsencrypt_domains:
  - example.com
  - www.example.com
  - idp.example.com
  - staging.example.com
  - mail.example.com
