- Make config validation run by default for all Boulder components with
a registered validator.
- Refactor main to parse `boulder` flags directly instead of declaring
them as subcommands.
- Remove the `validate` subcommand and update relevant docs.
- Fix configuration validation for issuer (file source) OCSP responder.
Fixes#6857Fixes#6763
- Require `letsencrypt/validator` package.
- Add a framework for registering configuration structs and any custom
validators for each Boulder component at `init()` time.
- Add a `validate` subcommand which allows you to pass a `-component`
name and `-config` file path.
- Expose validation via exported utility functions
`cmd.LookupConfigValidator()`, `cmd.ValidateJSONConfig()` and
`cmd.ValidateYAMLConfig()`.
- Add unit test which validates all registered component configuration
structs against test configuration files.
Part of #6052
The resulting `boulder` binary can be invoked by different names to
trigger the behavior of the relevant subcommand. For instance, symlinking
and invoking as `boulder-ca` acts as the CA. Symlinking and invoking as
`boulder-va` acts as the VA.
This reduces the .deb file size from about 200MB to about 20MB.
This works by creating a registry that maps subcommand names to `main`
functions. Each subcommand registers itself in an `init()` function. The
monolithic `boulder` binary then checks what name it was invoked with
(`os.Args[0]`), looks it up in the registry, and invokes the appropriate
`main`. To avoid conflicts, all of the old `package main` are replaced
with `package notmain`.
To get the list of registered subcommands, run `boulder --list`. This
is used when symlinking all the variants into place, to ensure the set
of symlinked names matches the entries in the registry.
