DESCRIPTION

Net::SSLLabs provides a full interface to the API provided by ssllabs.com.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

new

a new Net::SSLLabs object, ready to process TLS services

info

This call should be used to check the availability of the SSL Labs servers, retrieve the engine and criteria version, and initialize the maximum number of concurrent assessments. Returns one Net::SSLLabs::Info object on success.

analyze

This call is used to initiate an assessment, or to retrieve the status of an assessment in progress or in the cache. It will return a single Net::SSLLabs::Host object on success. The Net::SSLLabs::Endpoint object embedded in the Net::SSLLabs::Host object will provide partial endpoint results.

Parameters:

  • host - hostname; required.

  • publish - set to "on" if assessment results should be published on the public results boards; optional, defaults to "off".

  • startNew - if set to "on" then cached assessment results are ignored and a new assessment is started. However, if there's already an assessment in progress, its status is delivered instead. This parameter should be used only once to initiate a new assessment; further invocations should omit it to avoid causing an assessment loop.

  • fromCache - always deliver cached assessment reports if available; optional, defaults to "off". This parameter is intended for when you don't want to wait for assessment results. Can't be used at the same time as the startNew parameter.

  • maxAge - maximum report age, in hours, if retrieving from cache (fromCache parameter set).

  • all - by default this call results only summaries of individual endpoints. If this parameter is set to "on", full information will be returned. If set to "done", full information will be returned only if the assessment is complete (status is READY or ERROR).

  • ignoreMismatch - set to "on" to proceed with assessments even when the server certificate doesn't match the assessment hostname. Set to off by default. Please note that this parameter is ignored if a cached report is returned.

getEndpointData

This call is used to retrieve detailed endpoint information. It will return a single Net::SSLLabs::Endpoint object on success. The object will contain complete assessment information. This call does not initiate new assessments, even when a cached report is not found.

Parameters:

  • host - as above

  • s - endpoint IP address

  • fromCache - see above.

getStatusCodes

This call will return one Net::SSLLabs::StatusCodes instance.
