Ansible module for Caddy v2?

Coding

Hi folks, has anyone considered the possibility of making an Ansible module for Caddy? It seems like the API for Caddy v2 is particularly well-suited to an Ansible module that can send commands to Caddy and retrieve useful information for Ansible playbooks. nginx_status_info seems like a plausible example of an Ansible module getting info from a web server.

Imagine writing something like:

- name: get current Caddy configuration
  caddy_info:
    url: http://localhost:2019/config/
  register: result

I can’t immediately find a good example of sending commands in an Ansible module, but I’m certain one exists. What do y’all think?

That sounds cool! I imagine the module will query the config at the fact gathering stage, diff the result against the desired state, then POST/PUT/PATCH the diff as appropriate? That would be awesome. It hasn’t been considered anyways.
