puppet certificate_request action [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH]
This subcommand retrieves and submits certificate signing requests (CSRs).
Note that any setting that's valid in the configuration
file is also a valid long argument, although it may or may not be
relevant to the present action. For example, server
and run_mode
are valid
settings, so you can specify --server <servername>
, or
--run_mode <runmode>
as an argument.
See the configuration file documentation at
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/configuration.html for the
full list of acceptable parameters. A commented list of all
configuration options can also be generated by running puppet with
--genconfig
.
json
,
s
(string), yaml
, and console
, but other options such as dot
are
sometimes available.Indirector faces expose indirected subsystems of Puppet. These
subsystems are each able to retrieve and alter a specific type of data
(with the familiar actions of find
, search
, save
, and destroy
)
from an arbitrary number of pluggable backends. In Puppet parlance,
these backends are called terminuses.
Almost all indirected subsystems have a rest
terminus that interacts
with the puppet master's data. Most of them have additional terminuses
for various local data models, which are in turn used by the indirected
subsystem on the puppet master whenever it receives a remote request.
The terminus for an action is often determined by context, but occasionally needs to be set explicitly. See the "Notes" section of this face's manpage for more details.
find
- Retrieve a single CSR.SYNOPSIS
puppet certificate_request find [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH] [host]
DESCRIPTION
Retrieve a single CSR.
RETURNS
A single certificate request. When used from the Ruby API, returns a Puppet::SSL::CertificateRequest object.
Defaults to the current nodes certname.
info
- Print the default terminus class for this face.SYNOPSIS
puppet certificate_request info [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH]
DESCRIPTION
Prints the default terminus class for this subcommand. Note that different run modes may have different default termini; when in doubt, specify the run mode with the '--run_mode' option.
save
- API only: submit a certificate signing request.SYNOPSIS
puppet certificate_request save [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH] x509_CSR
DESCRIPTION
API only: create or overwrite an object. As the Faces framework does not currently accept data from STDIN, save actions cannot currently be invoked from the command line.
search
- Retrieve all outstanding CSRs.SYNOPSIS
puppet certificate_request search [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH] dummy_text
DESCRIPTION
Retrieve all outstanding CSRs.
RETURNS
A list of certificate requests. When used from the Ruby API, returns an array of Puppet::SSL::CertificateRequest objects.
NOTES
Although this action always returns all CSRs, it requires a dummy search key; this is a known bug.
find
Retrieve a single CSR from the puppet master's CA:
$ puppet certificate_request find somenode.puppetlabs.lan --terminus rest
search
Retrieve all CSRs from the local CA (similar to 'puppet cert list'):
$ puppet certificate_request search x --terminus ca
This subcommand is an indirector face, which exposes find
, search
, save
,
and destroy
actions for an indirected subsystem of Puppet. Valid termini for
this face include:
ca
disabled_ca
file
memory
rest
