Let's Encrypt: Boulder cookbook

This is a cookbook for provisioning Boulder, an ACME-based certificate authority, written in Go. The Boulder application is an official effort of Let's Encrypt project.

Warning: This cookbook was created for testing other cookbooks, not production purposes.

Supported Platforms

  • Ubuntu 14.04
  • Centos 7

Attributes

Key Type Description
['boulder']['config']['boulder-config'] Hash Deep-merged into eponymous config file.
['boulder']['config']['issuer-ocsp-responder'] Hash Deep-merged into eponymous config file.

Recipes

default

Install and starts the Boulder server.

Notes

  • Pay close attention to the output of any failed attempts. By default, Boulder tries to use all ports in the range 8000 to 8010, among others. If there is a conflict with other applications, you can use this cookbook's attributes to force Boulder onto a different port.

  • If you're running the boulder server during testing, and it's on the same server as the webserver, you'll likely want to edit the hostsfile. The hostfile cookbook is great for this.

Development

To tag and publish a new version of this cookbook, first ensure:

  • the metadata.rb version has been bumped appropriately,
  • the CHANGELOG.md has been updated, and
  • all changes have been committed to git.

Once that has been done:

bundle exec rake publish

This will create a git tag and push a new release to the Supermarket.
