API reference docs

URL is the URL of the Authorization that must be completed

Identifier is the DNS name to be validated as part of this authorization

Wildcard will be true if this authorization is for a wildcard DNS name. If this is true, the identifier will be the non-wildcard version of the DNS name. For example, if ‘*.example.com’ is the DNS name being validated, this field will be ‘true’ and the ‘identifier’ field will be ‘example.com’.

InitialState is the initial state of the ACME authorization when first fetched from the ACME server. If an Authorization is already ‘valid’, the Order controller will not create a Challenge resource for the authorization. This will occur when working with an ACME server that enables ‘authz reuse’ (such as Let’s Encrypt’s production endpoint). If not set and ‘identifier’ is set, the state is assumed to be pending and a Challenge will be created.

Challenges specifies the challenge types offered by the ACME server. One of these challenge types will be selected when validating the DNS name and an appropriate Challenge resource will be created to perform the ACME challenge process.

URL is the URL of this challenge. It can be used to retrieve additional metadata about the Challenge from the ACME server.

RotationPolicy controls how private keys should be regenerated when a re-issuance is being processed. If set to Never, a private key will only be generated if one does not already exist in the target spec.secretName. If one does exists but it does not have the correct algorithm or size, a warning will be raised to await user intervention. If set to Always, a private key matching the specified requirements will be generated whenever a re-issuance occurs. Default is ‘Never’ for backward compatibility.

Requested certificate default Duration

IssuerRef is a reference to the issuer for this CertificateRequest. If the ‘kind’ field is not set, or set to ‘Issuer’, an Issuer resource with the given name in the same namespace as the CertificateRequest will be used. If the ‘kind’ field is set to ‘ClusterIssuer’, a ClusterIssuer with the provided name will be used. The ‘name’ field in this stanza is required at all times. The group field refers to the API group of the issuer which defaults to ‘cert-manager.io’ if empty.

Byte slice containing the PEM encoded CertificateSigningRequest

IsCA will mark the resulting certificate as valid for signing. This implies that the ‘cert sign’ usage is set

Usages is the set of x509 actions that are enabled for a given key. Defaults are (‘digital signature’, ‘key encipherment’) if empty

Byte slice containing a PEM encoded signed certificate resulting from the given certificate signing request.

Byte slice containing the PEM encoded certificate authority of the signed certificate.

FailureTime stores the time that this CertificateRequest failed. This is used to influence garbage collection and back-off.

Full X509 name specification (https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/x509/pkix/#Name).

CommonName is a common name to be used on the Certificate. The CommonName should have a length of 64 characters or fewer to avoid generating invalid CSRs. This value is ignored by TLS clients when any subject alt name is set. This is x509 behaviour: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6125#section-6.4.4

Certificate default Duration

Certificate renew before expiration duration

SecretName is the name of the secret resource to store this secret in

Keystores configures additional keystore output formats stored in the secretName Secret resource.

IssuerRef is a reference to the issuer for this certificate. If the ‘kind’ field is not set, or set to ‘Issuer’, an Issuer resource with the given name in the same namespace as the Certificate will be used. If the ‘kind’ field is set to ‘ClusterIssuer’, a ClusterIssuer with the provided name will be used. The ‘name’ field in this stanza is required at all times.

IsCA will mark this Certificate as valid for signing. This implies that the ‘cert sign’ usage is set

Usages is the set of x509 actions that are enabled for a given key. Defaults are (‘digital signature’, ‘key encipherment’) if empty

KeySize is the key bit size of the corresponding private key for this certificate. If provided, value must be between 2048 and 8192 inclusive when KeyAlgorithm is empty or is set to “rsa”, and value must be one of (256, 384, 521) when KeyAlgorithm is set to “ecdsa”.

KeyAlgorithm is the private key algorithm of the corresponding private key for this certificate. If provided, allowed values are either “rsa” or “ecdsa” If KeyAlgorithm is specified and KeySize is not provided, key size of 256 will be used for “ecdsa” key algorithm and key size of 2048 will be used for “rsa” key algorithm.

KeyEncoding is the private key cryptography standards (PKCS) for this certificate’s private key to be encoded in. If provided, allowed values are “pkcs1” and “pkcs8” standing for PKCS#1 and PKCS#8, respectively. If KeyEncoding is not specified, then PKCS#1 will be used by default.

Options to control private keys used for the Certificate.

The expiration time of the certificate stored in the secret named by this resource in spec.secretName.

The current ‘revision’ of the certificate as issued.

When a CertificateRequest resource is created, it will have the cert-manager.io/certificate-revision set to one greater than the current value of this field.

Upon issuance, this field will be set to the value of the annotation on the CertificateRequest resource used to issue the certificate.

Persisting the value on the CertificateRequest resource allows the certificates controller to know whether a request is part of an old issuance or if it is part of the ongoing revision’s issuance by checking if the revision value in the annotation is greater than this field.

The name of the Secret resource containing the private key to be used for the next certificate iteration. The keymanager controller will automatically set this field if the Issuing condition is set to True. It will automatically unset this field when the Issuing condition is not set or False.

Type of the condition, currently (‘Ready’).

Status of the condition, one of (‘True’, ‘False’, ‘Unknown’).

LastTransitionTime is the timestamp corresponding to the last status change of this condition.

Reason is a brief machine readable explanation for the condition’s last transition.

Message is a human readable description of the details of the last transition, complementing reason.

Create enables JKS keystore creation for the Certificate. If true, a file named keystore.jks will be created in the target Secret resource, encrypted using the password stored in passwordSecretRef. The keystore file will only be updated upon re-issuance.

PasswordSecretRef is a reference to a key in a Secret resource containing the password used to encrypt the JKS keystore.

Create enables PKCS12 keystore creation for the Certificate. If true, a file named keystore.p12 will be created in the target Secret resource, encrypted using the password stored in passwordSecretRef. The keystore file will only be updated upon re-issuance.

PasswordSecretRef is a reference to a key in a Secret resource containing the password used to encrypt the PKCS12 keystore.

The CRL distribution points is an X.509 v3 certificate extension which identifies the location of the CRL from which the revocation of this certificate can be checked. If not set certificate will be issued without CDP. Values are strings.

The Vault mountPath here is the mount path to use when authenticating with Vault. For example, setting a value to /v1/auth/foo, will use the path /v1/auth/foo/login to authenticate with Vault. If unspecified, the default value “/v1/auth/kubernetes” will be used.
