This module allows one to query information on OpenSSL certificates.
It uses the pyOpenSSL or cryptography python library to interact with OpenSSL. If both the cryptography and PyOpenSSL libraries are available (and meet the minimum version requirements) cryptography will be preferred as a backend over PyOpenSSL (unless the backend is forced with C(select_crypto_backend))
- name: Generate a Self Signed OpenSSL certificate
openssl_certificate:
path: /etc/ssl/crt/ansible.com.crt
privatekey_path: /etc/ssl/private/ansible.com.pem
csr_path: /etc/ssl/csr/ansible.com.csr
provider: selfsigned
# Get information on the certificate
- name: Get information on generated certificate
openssl_certificate_info:
path: /etc/ssl/crt/ansible.com.crt
register: result
- name: Dump information
debug:
var: result
# Check whether the certificate is valid or not valid at certain times, fail
# if this is not the case. The first task (openssl_certificate_info) collects
# the information, and the second task (assert) validates the result and
# makes the playbook fail in case something is not as expected.
- name: Test whether that certificate is valid tomorrow and/or in three weeks
openssl_certificate_info:
path: /etc/ssl/crt/ansible.com.crt
valid_at:
point_1: "+1d"
point_2: "+3w"
register: result
- name: Validate that certificate is valid tomorrow, but not in three weeks
assert:
that:
- result.valid_at.point_1 # valid in one day
- not result.valid_at.point_2 # not valid in three weeks
path:
description:
- Remote absolute path where the certificate file is loaded from.
required: true
type: path
valid_at:
description:
- A dict of names mapping to time specifications. Every time specified here will be
checked whether the certificate is valid at this point. See the C(valid_at) return
value for informations on the result.
- Time can be specified either as relative time or as absolute timestamp.
- Time will always be interpreted as UTC.
- Valid format is C([+-]timespec | ASN.1 TIME) where timespec can be an integer +
C([w | d | h | m | s]) (e.g. C(+32w1d2h), and ASN.1 TIME (i.e. pattern C(YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ)).
Note that all timestamps will be treated as being in UTC.
type: dict
select_crypto_backend:
choices:
- auto
- cryptography
- pyopenssl
default: auto
description:
- Determines which crypto backend to use.
- The default choice is C(auto), which tries to use C(cryptography) if available,
and falls back to C(pyopenssl).
- If set to C(pyopenssl), will try to use the L(pyOpenSSL,https://pypi.org/project/pyOpenSSL/)
library.
- If set to C(cryptography), will try to use the L(cryptography,https://cryptography.io/)
library.
