NAME

       puppet-certificate_revocation_list - Manage the list of revoked certificates.

SYNOPSIS

       puppet certificate_revocation_list action [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH]

DESCRIPTION

       This subcommand is primarily for retrieving the certificate revocation list from the CA.

OPTIONS

       Note  that  any  configuration  parameter  that´s  valid  in  the configuration file is also a valid long
       argument, although it may or may not be relevant to the present action. For example, server and  run_mode
       are  valid configuration parameters, so you can specify --server <servername>, or --run_mode <runmode> as
       an argument.

       See             the             configuration             file              documentation              at
       http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html   for   the   full   list  of  acceptable
       parameters. A commented list of all configuration options can also be generated by  running  puppet  with
       --genconfig.

       --render-as FORMAT
              The  format  in  which  to  render output. The most common formats are json, s (string), yaml, and
              console, but other options such as dot are sometimes available.

       --verbose
              Whether to log verbosely.

       --debug
              Whether to log debug information.

       --extra HASH
              A terminus can take additional arguments to refine the operation, which are passed as an arbitrary
              hash to the back-end. Anything passed as the extra value is just send direct to the back-end.

       --terminus TERMINUS
              Indirector faces expose indirected subsystems  of  Puppet.  These  subsystems  are  each  able  to
              retrieve  and  alter a specific type of data (with the familiar actions of find, search, save, and
              destroy) from an arbitrary number of pluggable backends. In Puppet parlance,  these  backends  are
              called terminuses.

              Almost  all  indirected  subsystems  have  a rest terminus that interacts with the puppet master´s
              data. Most of them have additional terminuses for various local data models,  which  are  in  turn
              used by the indirected subsystem on the puppet master whenever it receives a remote request.

              The  terminus  for  an  action  is  often  determined by context, but occasionally needs to be set
              explicitly. See the "Notes" section of this face´s manpage for more details.

ACTIONS

       destroy - Delete the certificate revocation list.
              SYNOPSIS

              puppet certificate_revocation_list destroy [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH] dummy_text

              DESCRIPTION

              Deletes the certificate revocation list. This cannot be done over REST,  but  it  is  possible  to
              delete the locally cached copy or the local CA´s copy of the CRL.

              RETURNS

              Nothing.

              NOTES

              Although  this  action  always  deletes  the  CRL from the specified terminus, it requires a dummy
              argument; this is a known bug.

       find - Retrieve the certificate revocation list.
              SYNOPSIS

              puppet certificate_revocation_list find [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH] dummy_text

              DESCRIPTION

              Retrieve the certificate revocation list.

              RETURNS

              The certificate revocation list. When used  from  the  Ruby  API:  returns  an  OpenSSL::X509::CRL
              object.

              NOTES

              Although  this  action  always  returns  the  CRL from the specified terminus, it requires a dummy
              argument; this is a known bug.

       info - Print the default terminus class for this face.
              SYNOPSIS

              puppet certificate_revocation_list info [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH]

              DESCRIPTION

              Prints the default terminus class for this subcommand. Note that  different  run  modes  may  have
              different default termini; when in doubt, specify the run mode with the ´--run_mode´ option.

       save - Invalid for this subcommand.
              SYNOPSIS

              puppet certificate_revocation_list save [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH] key

              DESCRIPTION

              Invalid for this subcommand.

       search - Invalid for this subcommand.
              SYNOPSIS

              puppet certificate_revocation_list search [--terminus TERMINUS] [--extra HASH] query

              DESCRIPTION

              Invalid for this subcommand.

EXAMPLES

       find

       Retrieve a copy of the puppet master´s CRL:

       $ puppet certificate_revocation_list find crl --terminus rest

NOTES

       This  subcommand  is  an  indirector  face,  which exposes find, search, save, and destroy actions for an
       indirected subsystem of Puppet. Valid termini for this face include:

       •   ca

       •   disabled_ca

       •   file

       •   rest
