Ansible Role: dehydrated_cron

This role sets up cron jobs for dehydrated and sends emails only when there are changes.

How to Use

Configuration

All variables have default values and usually don't need to be changed:

• dehydrated_cron_script_dir: Directory for cron helper scripts
• dehydrated_config_dir: Directory for Dehydrated configuration
• dehydrated_certs_dir: Directory for Dehydrated certificates
• dehydrated_binary: Path to the Dehydrated executable
• dehydrated_check_span: Time (in seconds) before a certificate is considered stale.
• dehydrated_cron_renew: Crontab pattern for the renewal job
• dehydrated_cron_check: Crontab pattern for the check job

These configuration variables work with 24367dfa/ansible-role-dehydrated.

Include

You can include it as a role:

vars:
  - dehydrated_…: …

roles:

  - name: Set up cron for dehydrated
    include_role:
      name: penguineer.dehydrated_cron
    vars:
