+module: acme_certificate
+author: "Michael Gruener (@mgruener)"
+short_description: Create SSL/TLS certificates with the ACME protocol
+description:
+  - "Create and renew SSL/TLS certificates with a CA supporting the
+     L(ACME protocol,https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8555),
+     such as L(Let's Encrypt,https://letsencrypt.org/) or
+     L(Buypass,https://www.buypass.com/). The current implementation
+     supports the C(http-01), C(dns-01) and C(tls-alpn-01) challenges."
+  - "To use this module, it has to be executed twice. Either as two
+     different tasks in the same run or during two runs. Note that the output
+     of the first run needs to be recorded and passed to the second run as the
+     module argument C(data)."
+  - "Between these two tasks you have to fulfill the required steps for the
+     chosen challenge by whatever means necessary. For C(http-01) that means
+     creating the necessary challenge file on the destination webserver. For
+     C(dns-01) the necessary dns record has to be created. For C(tls-alpn-01)
+     the necessary certificate has to be created and served.
+     It is I(not) the responsibility of this module to perform these steps."
+  - "For details on how to fulfill these challenges, you might have to read through
+     L(the main ACME specification,https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8555#section-8)
+     and the L(TLS-ALPN-01 specification,https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8737.html#section-3).
+     Also, consider the examples provided for this module."
+  - "The module includes experimental support for IP identifiers according to
+     the L(RFC 8738,https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8738.html)."
+notes:
+  - "At least one of C(dest) and C(fullchain_dest) must be specified."
+  - "This module includes basic account management functionality.
+     If you want to have more control over your ACME account, use the
+     M(community.crypto.acme_account) module and disable account management
+     for this module using the C(modify_account) option."
+  - "This module was called C(letsencrypt) before Ansible 2.6. The usage
+     did not change."

+description:
+  - "Allows to revoke certificates issued by a CA supporting the
+     L(ACME protocol,https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8555),
+     such as L(Let's Encrypt,https://letsencrypt.org/)."
+notes:
+  - "Exactly one of C(account_key_src), C(account_key_content),
+     C(private_key_src) or C(private_key_content) must be specified."
+  - "Trying to revoke an already revoked certificate
+     should result in an unchanged status, even if the revocation reason
+     was different than the one specified here. Also, depending on the
+     server, it can happen that some other error is returned if the
+     certificate has already been revoked."

+short_description: Complete certificate chain given a set of untrusted and root certificates
+description:
+    - "This module completes a given chain of certificates in PEM format by finding
+       intermediate certificates from a given set of certificates, until it finds a root
+       certificate in another given set of certificates."
+    - "This can for example be used to find the root certificate for a certificate chain
+       returned by M(community.crypto.acme_certificate)."
+    - "Note that this module does I(not) check for validity of the chains. It only
+       checks that issuer and subject match, and that the signature is correct. It
+       ignores validity dates and key usage completely. If you need to verify that a
+       generated chain is valid, please use C(openssl verify ...)."

+            - If there is a certificate present in I(path) and it is an ECS certificate, I(tracking_id) will be ignored.
+            - If there is no certificate present in I(path) or there is but it is from another provider, the certificate represented by I(tracking_id) will
+              be renewed or reissued and saved to I(path).
+            - If there is no certificate present in I(path) and the I(force) and I(remaining_days) parameters do not indicate a new certificate is needed,
+              the certificate referenced by I(tracking_id) certificate will be saved to I(path).
+            - This can be used when a known certificate is not currently present on a server, but you want to renew or reissue it to be managed by an ansible
+              playbook. For example, if you specify C(request_type=renew), I(tracking_id) of an issued certificate, and I(path) to a file that does not exist,
+              the first run of a task will download the certificate specified by I(tracking_id) (assuming it is still valid). Future runs of the task will

+            - If C(request_type=renew), a renewal will fail if the certificate being renewed has been issued within the past 30 days, so do not set a

+            - Specifying C(request_type=validate_only) means the request will be validated against the ECS API, but no certificate will be issued.
+            - Specifying C(request_type=new) means a certificate request will always be submitted and a new certificate issued.
+            - Specifying C(request_type=renew) means that an existing certificate (specified by I(tracking_id) if present, otherwise I(path)) will be renewed.
+              If there is no certificate to renew, a new certificate is requested.
+            - Specifying C(request_type=reissue) means that an existing certificate (specified by I(tracking_id) if present, otherwise I(path)) will be
+              reissued.
+              If there is no certificate to reissue, a new certificate is requested.
+            - If a certificate was issued within the past 30 days, the C(renew) operation is not a valid operation and will fail.
+            - Note that C(reissue) is an operation that will result in the revocation of the certificate that is reissued, be cautious with its use.
+            - I(check_mode) is only supported if C(request_type=new)
+            - For example, setting C(request_type=renew) and C(remaining_days=30) and pointing to the same certificate on multiple playbook runs means that on
+              the first run new certificate will be requested. It will then be left along on future runs until it is within 30 days of expiry, then the

+short_description: Request validation of a domain with the Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) API
+description:
+    - Request validation or re-validation of a domain with the Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) API.
+    - Requires credentials for the L(Entrust Certificate Services,https://www.entrustdatacard.com/products/categories/ssl-certificates) (ECS) API.
+    - If the domain is already in the validation process, no new validation will be requested, but the validation data (if applicable) will be returned.
+    - If the domain is already in the validation process but the I(verification_method) specified is different than the current I(verification_method),
+      the I(verification_method) will be updated and validation data (if applicable) will be returned.
+    - If the domain is an active, validated domain, the return value of I(changed) will be false, unless C(domain_status=EXPIRED), in which case a re-validation
+      will be performed.
+    - If C(verification_method=dns), details about the required DNS entry will be specified in the return parameters I(dns_contents), I(dns_location), and
+      I(dns_resource_type).
+    - If C(verification_method=web_server), details about the required file details will be specified in the return parameters I(file_contents) and
+      I(file_location).
+    - If C(verification_method=email), the email address(es) that the validation email(s) were sent to will be in the return parameter I(emails). This is
+      purely informational. For domains requested using this module, this will always be a list of size 1.
+notes:
+    - There is a small delay (typically about 5 seconds, but can be as long as 60 seconds) before obtaining the random values when requesting a validation
+      while C(verification_method=dns) or C(verification_method=web_server). Be aware of that if doing many domain validation requests.

+              I(verification_email) with instructions on how to verify control of the domain.
+            - If C(verification_method=dns), the value I(dns_contents) must be stored in location I(dns_location), with a DNS record type of
+              I(verification_dns_record_type). To prove domain ownership, update your DNS records so the text string returned by I(dns_contents) is available at
+              I(dns_location).
+            - If C(verification_method=web_server), the contents of return value I(file_contents) must be made available on a web server accessible at location
+              I(file_location).

+              admin@I(domain_name), administrator@I(domain_name), webmaster@I(domain_name), hostmaster@I(domain_name), postmaster@I(domain_name).'
+            - 'Note that if I(domain_name) includes subdomains, the top level domain should be used. For example, if requesting validation of
+              example1.ansible.com, or test.example2.ansible.com, and you want to use the "admin" preconstructed name, the email address should be
+              admin@ansible.com.'
+            - If using the email values from the WHOIS data for the domain or its top level namespace, they must be exact matches.
+            - If C(verification_method=email) but I(verification_email) is not provided, the first email address found in WHOIS data for the domain will be
+              used.
+            - To verify domain ownership, domain owner must follow the instructions in the email they receive.

+              when acting as a CA and signing certificates with a RSA key. However, for OpenSSH versions less than 8.1
+              the SHA-2 signature algorithms, C(rsa-sha2-256) or C(rsa-sha2-512), must be specified using this option
+              if compatibility with newer C(ssh) clients is required. Conversely if hosts using OpenSSH version 8.2
+              or greater must remain compatible with C(ssh) clients using OpenSSH less than 7.2, then C(ssh-rsa)
+              can be used when generating host certificates (a corresponding change to the sshd_config to add C(ssh-rsa)
+              to the C(CASignatureAlgorithms) keyword is also required).
+            - Using any value for this option with a non-RSA I(signing_key) will cause this module to fail.
+            - "Note: OpenSSH versions prior to 7.2 do not support SHA-2 signature algorithms for RSA keys and OpenSSH
+               versions prior to 7.3 do not support SHA-2 signature algorithms for certificates."
+            - See U(https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.2) for more information.

+description:
+    - "This module allows one to (re)generate OpenSSH private and public keys. It uses
+      ssh-keygen to generate keys. One can generate C(rsa), C(dsa), C(rsa1), C(ed25519)
+      or C(ecdsa) private keys."

+              For ECDSA keys, size determines the key length by selecting from one of three elliptic curve sizes: 256, 384 or 521 bits.
+              Attempting to use bit lengths other than these three values for ECDSA keys will cause this module to fail.

+    regenerate:
+        description:
+            - Allows to configure in which situations the module is allowed to regenerate private keys.
+              The module will always generate a new key if the destination file does not exist.
+            - By default, the key will be regenerated when it does not match the module's options,
+              except when the key cannot be read or the passphrase does not match. Please note that
+              this B(changed) for Ansible 2.10. For Ansible 2.9, the behavior was as if C(full_idempotence)
+              is specified.
+            - If set to C(never), the module will fail if the key cannot be read or the passphrase
+              is not matching, and will never regenerate an existing key.
+            - If set to C(fail), the module will fail if the key does not correspond to the module's
+              options.
+            - If set to C(partial_idempotence), the key will be regenerated if it does not conform to
+              the module's options. The key is B(not) regenerated if it cannot be read (broken file),
+              the key is protected by an unknown passphrase, or when they key is not protected by a
+              passphrase, but a passphrase is specified.
+            - If set to C(full_idempotence), the key will be regenerated if it does not conform to the
+              module's options. This is also the case if the key cannot be read (broken file), the key
+              is protected by an unknown passphrase, or when they key is not protected by a passphrase,
+              but a passphrase is specified. Make sure you have a B(backup) when using this option!
+            - If set to C(always), the module will always regenerate the key. This is equivalent to
+              setting I(force) to C(true).
+            - Note that adjusting the comment and the permissions can be changed without regeneration.
+              Therefore, even for C(never), the task can result in changed.
+        type: str
+        choices:
+            - never
+            - fail
+            - partial_idempotence
+            - full_idempotence
+            - always
+        default: partial_idempotence
+        version_added: '1.0.0'
+notes:
+    - In case the ssh key is broken or password protected, the module will fail.
+      Set the I(force) option to C(true) if you want to regenerate the keypair.
+    - In the case a custom C(mode), C(group), C(owner), or other file attribute is provided it will be applied to both key files.

+short_description: Provide information of OpenSSL Certificate Signing Requests (CSR)
+description:
+    - This module allows one to query information on OpenSSL Certificate Signing Requests (CSR).
+    - In case the CSR signature cannot be validated, the module will fail. In this case, all return
+      variables are still returned.
+    - It uses the cryptography python library to interact with OpenSSL.
+requirements:
+    - cryptography >= 1.3

+module: openssl_dhparam
+short_description: Generate OpenSSL Diffie-Hellman Parameters
+description:
+    - This module allows one to (re)generate OpenSSL DH-params.
+    - This module uses file common arguments to specify generated file permissions.
+    - "Please note that the module regenerates existing DH params if they do not
+      match the module's options. If you are concerned that this could overwrite
+      your existing DH params, consider using the I(backup) option."
+    - The module can use the cryptography Python library, or the C(openssl) executable.
+      By default, it tries to detect which one is available. This can be overridden
+      with the I(select_crypto_backend) option.
+requirements:
+    - Either cryptography >= 2.0
+    - Or OpenSSL binary C(openssl)

+short_description: Generate OpenSSL PKCS#12 archive
+description:
+    - This module allows one to (re-)generate PKCS#12.
+    - The module can use the cryptography Python library, or the pyOpenSSL Python
+      library. By default, it tries to detect which one is available, assuming none of the
+      I(iter_size) and I(maciter_size) options are used. This can be overridden with the
+      I(select_crypto_backend) option.
+    # Please note that the C(pyopenssl) backend has been deprecated in community.crypto x.y.0,
+    # and will be removed in community.crypto (x+1).0.0.

+short_description: Provide information for OpenSSL private keys
+description:
+    - This module allows one to query information on OpenSSL private keys.
+    - In case the key consistency checks fail, the module will fail as this indicates a faked
+      private key. In this case, all return variables are still returned. Note that key consistency
+      checks are not available all key types; if none is available, C(none) is returned for
+      C(key_is_consistent).
+    - It uses the cryptography python library to interact with OpenSSL.

+module: openssl_publickey
+short_description: Generate an OpenSSL public key from its private key.
+description:
+    - This module allows one to (re)generate public keys from their private keys.
+    - Public keys are generated in PEM or OpenSSH format. Private keys must be OpenSSL PEM keys.
+      OpenSSH private keys are not supported, use the M(community.crypto.openssh_keypair) module to manage these.
+    - The module uses the cryptography Python library.
+requirements:
+    - cryptography >= 1.2.3 (older versions might work as well)
+    - Needs cryptography >= 1.4 if I(format) is C(OpenSSH)

+module: x509_certificate
+short_description: Generate and/or check OpenSSL certificates
+description:
+    - It implements a notion of provider (one of C(selfsigned), C(ownca), C(acme), and C(entrust))
+      for your certificate.
+    - "Please note that the module regenerates existing certificate if it does not match the module's
+      options, or if it seems to be corrupt. If you are concerned that this could overwrite
+      your existing certificate, consider using the I(backup) option."
+    - Note that this module was called C(openssl_certificate) when included directly in Ansible up to version 2.9.
+      When moved to the collection C(community.crypto), it was renamed to
+      M(community.crypto.x509_certificate). From Ansible 2.10 on, it can still be used by the
+      old short name (or by C(ansible.builtin.openssl_certificate)), which redirects to
+      C(community.crypto.x509_certificate). When using FQCNs or when using the
+      L(collections,https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/collections_using.html#using-collections-in-a-playbook)
+      keyword, the new name M(community.crypto.x509_certificate) should be used to avoid
+      a deprecation warning.

+module: x509_certificate_info
+short_description: Provide information of OpenSSL X.509 certificates
+description:
+    - This module allows one to query information on OpenSSL certificates.
+    - It uses the cryptography python library to interact with OpenSSL.
+    - Note that this module was called C(openssl_certificate_info) when included directly in Ansible
+      up to version 2.9.  When moved to the collection C(community.crypto), it was renamed to
+      M(community.crypto.x509_certificate_info). From Ansible 2.10 on, it can still be used by the
+      old short name (or by C(ansible.builtin.openssl_certificate_info)), which redirects to
+      C(community.crypto.x509_certificate_info). When using FQCNs or when using the
+      L(collections,https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/collections_using.html#using-collections-in-a-playbook)
+      keyword, the new name M(community.crypto.x509_certificate_info) should be used to avoid
+      a deprecation warning.
+requirements:
+    - cryptography >= 1.6

+short_description: Generate Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs)
+description:
+    - This module allows one to (re)generate or update Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs).
+    - Certificates on the revocation list can be either specified by serial number and (optionally) their issuer,
+      or as a path to a certificate file in PEM format.
+requirements:
+    - cryptography >= 1.2
