This change contains the roles and testing for deploying certificates on hosts using letsencrypt with domain authentication. From a top level, the process is implemented in the roles as follows: 1) letsencrypt-acme-sh-install This role installs the acme.sh tool on hosts in the letsencrypt group, along with a small custom driver script to help parse output that is used by later roles. 2) letsencrypt-request-certs This role runs on each host, and reads a host variable describing the certificates required. It uses the acme.sh tool (via the driver) to request the certificates from letsencrypt. It populates a global Ansible variable with the authentication TXT records required. If the certificate exists on the host and is not within the renewal period, it should do nothing. 3) letsencrypt-install-txt-record This role runs on the adns server. It installs the TXT records generated in step 2 to the acme.opendev.org domain and then refreshes the server. Hosts wanting certificates will have pre-provisioned CNAME records for _acme-challenge.host.opendev.org pointing to acme.opendev.org. 4) letsencrypt-create-certs This role runs on each host, reading the same variable as in step 2. However this time the acme.sh tool is run to authenticate and create the certificates, which should now work correctly via the TXT records from step 3. After this, the host will have the full certificate material. Testing is added via testinfra. For testing purposes requests are made to the staging letsencrypt servers and a self-signed certificate is provisioned in step 4 (as the authentication is not available during CI). We test that the DNS TXT records are created locally on the CI adns server, however. Related-Spec: https://review.openstack.org/587283 Change-Id: I1f66da614751a29cc565b37cdc9ff34d70fdfd3f

Request certificates from letsencrypt
|
|
|
|
The role requests certificates (or renews expiring certificates, which
|
|
is fundamentally the same thing) from letsencrypt for a host. This
|
|
requires the ``acme.sh`` tool and driver which should have been
|
|
installed by the ``letsencrypt-acme-sh-install`` role.
|
|
|
|
This role does not create the certificates. It will request the
|
|
certificates from letsencrypt and populate the authentication data
|
|
into the ``acme_txt_required`` variable. These values need to be
|
|
installed and activated on the DNS server by the
|
|
``letsencrypt-install-txt-record`` role; the
|
|
``letsencrypt-create-certs`` will then finish the certificate
|
|
provision process.
|
|
|
|
**Role Variables**
|
|
|
|
.. zuul:rolevar:: letsencrypt_test_only
|
|
|
|
Uses staging, rather than prodcution requests to letsencrypt
|
|
|
|
.. zuul:rolevar:: letsencrypt_certs
|
|
|
|
A host wanting a certificate should define a dictionary variable
|
|
``letsencyrpt_certs``. Each key in this dictionary is a separate
|
|
certificate to create (i.e. a host can create multiple separate
|
|
certificates). Each key should have a list of hostnames valid for
|
|
that certificate. The certificate will be named for the *first*
|
|
entry.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
letsencrypt_certs:
|
|
main:
|
|
- hostname01.opendev.org
|
|
- hostname.opendev.org
|
|
secondary:
|
|
- foo.opendev.org
|
|
|
|
will ultimately result in two certificates being provisioned on the
|
|
host in ``/etc/letsencrypt-certs/hostname01.opendev.org`` and
|
|
``/etc/letsencrypt-certs/foo.opendev.org``.
|
|
|
|
Note that each entry will require a ``CNAME`` pointing the ACME
|
|
challenge domain to the TXT record that will be created in the
|
|
signing domain. For example above, the following records would need
|
|
to be pre-created::
|
|
|
|
_acme-challenge.hostname01.opendev.org. IN CNAME acme.opendev.org.
|
|
_acme-challenge.hostname.opendev.org. IN CNAME acme.opendev.org.
|
|
_acme-challenge.foo.opendev.org. IN CNAME acme.opendev.org.
