# Webserver HTTPS Provisioning 🚀
## Description
The **srv-web-https** role extends a basic Nginx installation by wiring in everything you need to serve content over HTTPS:
1. Ensures your Nginx server is configured for SSL/TLS.
2. Pulls in Lets Encrypt ACME challenge handling.
3. Applies global cleanup of unused domain configs.
This role is built on top of your existing `srv-web-core` role, and it automates the end-to-end process of turning HTTP sites into secure HTTPS sites.
---
## Overview
When you apply **srv-web-https**, it will:
1. **Include** the `srv-web-core` role to install and configure Nginx.
2. **Clean up** any stale vHost files under `cln-domains`.
3. **Deploy** the Lets Encrypt challenge-and-redirect snippet from `network-letsencrypt`.
4. **Reload** Nginx automatically when any template changes.
All tasks are idempotent—once your certificates are in place and your configuration is set, Ansible will skip unchanged steps on subsequent runs.

## Features
- 🔒 **Automatic HTTPS Redirect**
Sets up port 80 → 443 redirect and serves `/.well-known/acme-challenge/` for Certbot.
- 🔑 **Lets Encrypt Integration**
Pulls in challenge configuration and CAA-record management for automatic certificate issuance and renewal.
- 🧹 **Domain Cleanup**
Removes obsolete or orphaned server blocks before enabling HTTPS.
- 🚦 **Handler-Safe**
Triggers an Nginx reload only when necessary, minimizing service interruptions.
---
## Requirements
- A working `srv-web-core` setup.
- DNS managed via Cloudflare (for CAA record tasks) or equivalent ACME DNS flow.
- Variables:
- `certbot_webroot_path`
- `certbot_cert_path`
