An ACME server implementation performing no validations.
I make heavy use of ACME in ansible playbooks. Occasionally, I test these playbooks in virtual machines. Unfortunately, these virtual machines are incapable of completing ACME challenges and therefore don't receive any certificates from configured ACME servers. Without these certificates many daemons will refuse to start causing failures of ansible tasks. For this reason, I implemented a simple ACME server which doesn't perform any validations and always signs the given certificate signing requests.
Horrible hack, didn't read the RFC and only implemented the parts needed to make acme-tiny work.
This software has no external dependencies and can be installed using:
$ go get github.com/nmeum/acme-mock
Since ACME requires HTTPS, a TLS certificate is needed. A bogus
certificate can be generated with openssl:
$ yes "" | openssl req -x509 -nodes -newkey rsa:4096 \
-keyout key.pem -out cert.pem
The generated TLS certificate and key need to be passed to acme-mock.
Additionally, the certificate needs to be added to the certificate store
of the virtual machine. Afterwards, the ACME client needs to be
configured to use the acme-mock directory. The URL of the directory
resource depends on the address parameter, it defaults to
https://localhost/directory. The certificate, used for processing
certificate signing requests, is generated on startup.
