Example Playbook

Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:

- hosts: servers
  roles:
    - { role: ansible-acmetool, become: yes }
  vars:
    - acmetool_email: "test@example.com"
    - acmetool_method: "proxy"
