Webserver HTTPS Provisioning
Description
The sys-svc-webserver-https role extends a basic NGINX installation by wiring in everything you need to serve content over HTTPS:
- Ensures your NGINX server is configured for SSL/TLS.
- Pulls in Let’s Encrypt ACME challenge handling.
- Applies global cleanup of unused domain configs.
This role is built on top of your existing sys-svc-webserver-core role, and it automates the end-to-end process of turning HTTP sites into secure HTTPS sites.
Overview
When you apply sys-svc-webserver-https, it will:
- Include the
sys-svc-webserver-corerole to install and configure NGINX. - Clean up any stale vHost files under
sys-svc-cln-domains. - Deploy the Let’s Encrypt challenge-and-redirect snippet from
sys-svc-letsencrypt. - 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
-
