Requirements

1. Ansible installed:

sudo apt install python3
python3 -m ensurepip --upgrade
pip3 install ansible

Required variables

Review the variables as shown in defaults.

certbot_email: ""
certbot_domains: [] # domains to request a cert for
certbook_hooks: [] # scripts to run when requesting a new certificate

certbot_verbose: false
certbot_dry_run: false
certbot_hooks_enabled: true

The ansible playbook will validate whether the variables exist that you defined before running.

Example playbook

hosts:
  - foo
roles:
  - pimvh.certbot

TLDR - What will happen if I run this

• run systemd-failmail role, to configure service that can send out mails on failure.
• validate whether rules/some other variables are defined
• install certbot
• install hooks (when requested)
• edit and enable systemd service for certbot

Future improvements

• Support more type of hooks
