+============================
+
+NAME
+----
+cdist-type__uacme_account - Install uacme and register Let's Encrypt account.
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+This type is used to bootstrap acquiring certificates from the Let's Encrypt
+C.A by creating an account and accepting terms of use. The
+`cdist-type__uacme_obtain(7)` type instances expect to depend on this type.
+
+
+OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
+-------------------
+confdir
+    An alternative configuration directory for uacme's private keys and
+    certificates.
+
+admin-mail
+    Administrative contact email to register the account with.
+
+EXAMPLES
+--------
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+   # Create account with default settings for the OS.
+   __uacme_account
+
+   # Create an account with email and custom location.
+   __uacme_account --confdir /opt/custom/uacme --admin-mail admin@domain.tld

+cdist-type__uacme_obtain(7)
+===========================
+
+NAME
+----
+cdist-type__uacme_obtain - obtain, renew and deploy Let's Encrypt certificates
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+This type leverage uacme to issue and renew Let's Encrypt certificates and
+provides a simple deployment mechanism. It is expected to be called after
+`__uacme_account`.
+
+REQUIRED PARAMETERS
+-------------------
+None.
+
+OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
+-------------------
+challengedir
+  Path to publicly available (served by a third-party HTTP server, under
+  `$DOMAIN/.well-known/acme-challenge`) challenge directory.
+
+confdir
+  uacme configuration directory.
+
+hookscript
+  Path to the challenge hook program.
+
+owner
+  Owner of installed certificate (e.g. `www-data`), passed to `chown`.
+
+install-cert-to
+  Installation path of the issued certificate.
+
+install-key-to
+  Installation path of the certificate's private key.
+
+renew-hook
+  Renew hook executed on certificate renewal (e.g. `service nginx reload`).
+
+force-cert-ownership-to
+  Override default ownership for TLS certificate, passed as argument to chown.
+
+OPTIONAL MULTIPLE PARAMETERS
+----------------------------
+altdomains
+  Alternative domain names for this certificate.
+
+BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
+------------------
+no-ocsp
+  When this flag is *not* specified and the certificate has an Authority
+  Information Access extension with an OCSP server location  *uacme* makes an
+  OCSP request to the server; if the certificate is reported as revoked *uacme*
+  forces reissuance regardless of the expiration date.
+
+must-staple
+  Request certificates with the RFC7633 Certificate Status Request
+  TLS Feature Extension, informally also known as "OCSP Must-Staple".
+
+use-rsa
+  Use RSA instead of EC for the private key. Only applies to newly generated keys.
