Name

OpenXPKI::Server::Workflow::Activity::Tools::PublishCA

Description

This activity publishes a single ca certificate. The context must hold the ca_alias parameter. The data point you specify at prefix must contain a list of connectors. Each connector is called with the CN of the certificate as location. The data portion contains a hash ref with the keys pem, der and subject holding the appropriate strings and dn which is the subject parsed into a hash as used in the template processing when issuing the certificates.

Configuration

Example

Set the "prefix" paramater to tell the activity where to find the connector

    publish_crl:
        class: OpenXPKI::Server::Workflow::Activity::Tools::PublishCA
        label: I18N_OPENXPKI_UI_WORKFLOW_ACTION_CRL_ISSUANCE_PUBLISH_CA_LABEL
        description: I18N_OPENXPKI_UI_WORKFLOW_ACTION_CRL_ISSUANCE_PUBLISH_CA_DESC
        input:
          - ca_alias
        param:
            prefix: publishing.cacert

Set up the connector using this syntax

  publishing:
    cacert:
      repo1@: connector:....
      repo2@: connector:....

To publish the certificate to your LDAP with autocreation of missing nodes, here is an example connector:

    ldap-cacert:
        class: Connector::Proxy::Net::LDAP::Single
        LOCATION: ldap://localhost:389
        base: ou=pki,dc=mycompany,dc=com
        filter: (cn=[% ARGS.0 %])
        binddn: cn=admin,dc=mycompany,dc=com
        password: admin
        attrmap:
            der: cacertificate;binary

        create:
            basedn: ou=pki,dc=mycompany,dc=com
            rdnkey: cn

        schema:
            cn:
                objectclass: top organizationalRole pkiCA crlDistributionPoint

Activity parameters

prefix / target: Enables publishing to a fixed set of connectors, disables per profile settings. Base path fot target is publishing.cacert
See OpenXPKI::Server::Workflow::Role::Publish
on_error: Define what to do on problems with the publication connectors. One of:

exception (default): The connector exception bubbles up and the workflow terminates.
skip: Skip the publication target and continue with the next one.
queue: Similar to skip, but failed targets are added to a queue. As long as the queue is not empty, pause/wake_up is used to retry those targets with the retry parameters set. This obvioulsy requires retry_count to be set.

Context parameters

ca_alias: The alias name of the CA
tmp_publish_queue: Used to temporary store unpublished targets when on_error is set.
