letsencrypt - Create SSL certificates with Let’s Encrypt¶

### Example with HTTP challenge ###

- name: Create a challenge for sample.com using a account key from a variable.
  letsencrypt:
    account_key_content: "{{ account_private_key }}"
    csr: /etc/pki/cert/csr/sample.com.csr
    dest: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com.crt
  register: sample_com_challenge

# Alternative first step:
- name: Create a challenge for sample.com using a account key from hashi vault.
  letsencrypt:
    account_key_content: "{{ lookup('hashi_vault', 'secret=secret/account_private_key:value') }}"
    csr: /etc/pki/cert/csr/sample.com.csr
    fullchain_dest: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com-fullchain.crt
  register: sample_com_challenge

# Alternative first step:
- name: Create a challenge for sample.com using a account key file.
  letsencrypt:
    account_key_src: /etc/pki/cert/private/account.key
    csr: /etc/pki/cert/csr/sample.com.csr
    dest: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com.crt
    fullchain_dest: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com-fullchain.crt
  register: sample_com_challenge

# perform the necessary steps to fulfill the challenge
# for example:
#
# - copy:
#     dest: /var/www/html/{{ sample_com_challenge['challenge_data']['sample.com']['http-01']['resource'] }}
#     content: "{{ sample_com_challenge['challenge_data']['sample.com']['http-01']['resource_value'] }}"
#     when: sample_com_challenge is changed

- name: Let the challenge be validated and retrieve the cert and intermediate certificate
  letsencrypt:
    account_key_src: /etc/pki/cert/private/account.key
    csr: /etc/pki/cert/csr/sample.com.csr
    dest: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com.crt
    fullchain_dest: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com-fullchain.crt
    chain_dest: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com-intermediate.crt
    data: "{{ sample_com_challenge }}"

### Example with DNS challenge against production ACME server ###

- name: Create a challenge for sample.com using a account key file.
  letsencrypt:
    account_key_src: /etc/pki/cert/private/account.key
    account_email: myself@sample.com
    src: /etc/pki/cert/csr/sample.com.csr
    cert: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com.crt
    challenge: dns-01
    acme_directory: https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
    # Renew if the certificate is at least 30 days old
    remaining_days: 60
  register: sample_com_challenge

# perform the necessary steps to fulfill the challenge
# for example:
#
# - route53:
#     zone: sample.com
#     record: "{{ sample_com_challenge.challenge_data['sample.com']['dns-01'].record }}"
#     type: TXT
#     ttl: 60
#     # Note: route53 requires TXT entries to be enclosed in quotes
#     value: "{{ sample_com_challenge.challenge_data['sample.com']['dns-01'].resource_value }}"
#     when: sample_com_challenge is changed
#
# Alternative way:
#
# - route53:
#     zone: sample.com
#     record: "{{ item.key }}"
#     type: TXT
#     ttl: 60
#     # Note: item.value is a list of TXT entries, and route53
#     # requires every entry to be enclosed in quotes
#     value: "{{ item.value | map('regex_replace', '^(.*)$', ''\1'' ) | list }}"
#     with_dict: sample_com_challenge.challenge_data_dns
#     when: sample_com_challenge is changed

- name: Let the challenge be validated and retrieve the cert and intermediate certificate
  letsencrypt:
    account_key_src: /etc/pki/cert/private/account.key
    account_email: myself@sample.com
    src: /etc/pki/cert/csr/sample.com.csr
    cert: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com.crt
    fullchain: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com-fullchain.crt
    chain: /etc/httpd/ssl/sample.com-intermediate.crt
    challenge: dns-01
    acme_directory: https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
    remaining_days: 60
    data: "{{ sample_com_challenge }}"
