Publish-Challenge¶
Synopsis¶
Publish a challenge using the specified plugin.
Syntax¶
Publish-Challenge [-Domain] <String> [-Account] <Object> [-Token] <String> [-Plugin] <String>
[[-PluginArgs] <Hashtable>] [-DnsAlias <String>] [<CommonParameters>]
Description¶
Based on the type of validation plugin specified, this function will publish either a DNS TXT record or an HTTP challenge file for the given domain and token value that satisfies the dns-01 or http-01 challenge specification.
Depending on the plugin, calling Save-Challenge may be required to commit changes made by Publish-Challenge.
If multiple challenges are being published, make all Publish-Challenge calls first.
Then, Save-Challenge once to commit them all.
Examples¶
Example 1: Publish a Challenge¶
$splat = @{
Domain = 'example.com'
Account = (Get-PAAccount)
Token = 'fake-token'
Plugin = 'FakeDNS'
PluginArgs = @{
FDToken = (Read-Host 'FakeDNS API Token' -AsSecureString)
}
}
Publish-Challenge @splat
# if plugin requires saving
Save-Challenge -Plugin $splat.Plugin -PluginArgs $splat.PluginArgs
Publish a single DNS challenge.
Example 2: DNS Order Challenges¶
$splat = @{
Account = (Get-PAAccount)
Plugin = 'FakeDNS'
PluginArgs = @{
FDToken = (Read-Host 'FakeDNS API Token' -AsSecureString)
}
}
Get-PAOrder | Get-PAAuthorization | ForEach-Object {
Publish-Challenge -Domain $_.DNSId -Token $_.DNS01Token @splat
}
# if plugin requires saving
Save-Challenge -Plugin $splat.Plugin -PluginArgs $splat.PluginArgs
Publish DNS challenges for all authorizations in the current order.
Example 3: HTTP Order Challenges¶
$splat = @{
Account = (Get-PAAccount)
Plugin = 'WebSelfHost'
PluginArgs = @{}
}
Get-PAOrder | Get-PAAuthorization | ForEach-Object {
Publish-Challenge -Domain $_.DNSId -Token $_.HTTP01Token @splat
}
# if plugin requires saving
Save-Challenge -Plugin $splat.Plugin -PluginArgs $splat.PluginArgs
Publish HTTP challenges for all authorizations in the current order.
