Generate TLS certificates
=========================
Generates self-signed CA, client and server certificates. Runs locally on control machine.
Notes:
- Will not overwrite any files in output cert dir
- Will not copy the files to the remote servers if the local files are unchanged
Requirements
------------
- For server certificates, must specify Ansible inventory file; FQDN must also be set as hostname in inventory file
Role Variables
--------------
See `defaults/main.yml`
Dependencies
------------
Install dependencies via
```
$ ansible-galaxy collection install community.crypto
```
Example Playbook
----------------
The provided example `playbook.yml` targets two hosts (take a look at the
`Vagrantfile`).
All the cryptographic relevant operations are performed on the host machine and
the resulting relevant files are `copy`ed to the remote target machine.
- `playbook.yml`
```yaml
---
- name: Run role
hosts: all
roles:
- role: generate-tls-certs
```
- `inventory.yml`
```yaml
---
all:
hosts:
srv1:
ansible_host: 192.168.123.30
srv2:
ansible_host: 192.168.123.31
vars:
cert_dir: ./certs
generate_ca_cert: true
generate_client_cert: true
generate_server_cert: true
tls_ca_email: me@example.org
tls_ca_country: EU
tls_ca_state: Italy
tls_ca_locality: Rome
tls_ca_organization: Example Inc.
tls_ca_organizationalunit: SysAdmins
```
If you want to tinker, you can use `vagrant` with the provided `Vagrantfile`.
It assumes `vagrant-libvirt` is installed (along with `libvirt`, of course).
Run it like this:
```
$ vagrant up --provider=libvirt --provision
```
