sys-openssl¶

Description¶

Ensures that the openssl CLI is installed on the host.

This role is intended as a shared dependency for other roles that execute OpenSSL commands on the host system.

Overview¶

This role ensures OpenSSL is installed once as a shared host dependency for roles that invoke the openssl CLI.

Cosmos¶

The diagram places sys-openssl in the Infinito.Nexus cosmos: the components it deploys (capabilities), the central services it consumes (dependencies), and its outward reach (federation and bridged external networks).

Solid 1:1 edges are fixed relationships; dashed 0..1 edges are conditional (enabled only in matching deployments); red 0..0 edges are turned off in this role. Node markers show the role’s deploy modes (💻 host, 🐳 compose, 🐝 swarm); ❌ marks a service that is explicitly turned off, and ⚙️ an Ansible role dependency declared in meta/main.yml.

Features¶

Automated provisioning: Configured by Ansible without manual steps.

Behavior¶

Installs package: openssl
Uses standard Infinito run-once flagging via run_once_sys_openssl

Usage¶

- include_role:
    name: sys-openssl
  when: run_once_sys_openssl is not defined
