OpenWrt uses the lightweight uhttpd webserver in order to make the LUCI WebGUI available. This role administers the configuration for that webservice.
This is how a playbook can look like:
role_openwrtuhttpd.yml
---
- hosts: platforms_openwrt
become: true
roles:
- imp1sh.ansible_openwrt.ansible_openwrtuhttpd
Even without a single variable set the role will deploy a default configuration equal to how the OpenWrt configuration look like on a fresh install. The only difference is that it will redirect to https as a default.
If you would like to make modifications to the default values of the role, just define them in your Ansible environment.
For a full list of available configuration options, look at the OpenWrt's uhttpd documentation.
If no certificate is given it will use the default certificate and key
/etc/uhttpd.key
/etc/uhttpd.crt
It will also look for a key and cert in:
/etc/acme/{{ inventory_hostname }}/{{ inventory_hostname }}.cer
/etc/acme/{{ inventory_hostname }}/{{ inventory_hostname }}.key
and will use that if found. You can change /etc/acme/{{ inventory_hostname }}/ by configuring the variable openwrt_uhttpd_cert_searchpath.
