2020-03-06Refactor for CertMagic v0.10; prepare for PKI appMatthew Holt
This is a breaking change primarily in two areas: - Storage paths for certificates have changed - Slight changes to JSON config parameters Huge improvements in this commit, to be detailed more in the release notes. The upcoming PKI app will be powered by Smallstep libraries.
2019-12-10v2: Module documentation; refactor LoadModule(); new caddy struct tags (#2924)Matt Holt
This commit goes a long way toward making automated documentation of Caddy config and Caddy modules possible. It's a broad, sweeping change, but mostly internal. It allows us to automatically generate docs for all Caddy modules (including future third-party ones) and make them viewable on a web page; it also doubles as godoc comments. As such, this commit makes significant progress in migrating the docs from our temporary wiki page toward our new website which is still under construction. With this change, all host modules will use ctx.LoadModule() and pass in both the struct pointer and the field name as a string. This allows the reflect package to read the struct tag from that field so that it can get the necessary information like the module namespace and the inline key. This has the nice side-effect of unifying the code and documentation. It also simplifies module loading, and handles several variations on field types for raw module fields (i.e. variations on json.RawMessage, such as arrays and maps). I also renamed ModuleInfo.Name -> ModuleInfo.ID, to make it clear that the ID is the "full name" which includes both the module namespace and the name. This clarity is helpful when describing module hierarchy. As of this change, Caddy modules are no longer an experimental design. I think the architecture is good enough to go forward.
2019-10-09tls: Add distributed_stek moduleMatthew Holt
This migrates a feature that was previously reserved for enterprise users, according to https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/2786. TLS session ticket keys are sensitive, so they should be rotated on a regular basis. Only Caddy does this by default. However, a cluster of servers that rotate keys without synchronization will lose the benefits of having sessions in the first place if the client is routed to a different backend. This module coordinates STEK rotation in a fleet so the same keys are used, and rotated, across the whole cluster. No other server does this, but Twitter wrote about how they hacked together a solution a few years ago: https://blog.twitter.com/engineering/en_us/a/2013/forward-secrecy-at-twitter.html
