Simplest shell script for LetsEncrypt free Certificate client
|
|
|
|
Pure written in bash, no dependencies to python , acme-tiny or LetsEncrypt official client (https://github.com/letsencrypt/letsencrypt)
|
|
|
|
Just one script, to issue, renew your certificates automatically.
|
|
|
|
Probably it's the smallest&easiest&smartest shell script to automatically issue&renew the free certificates from LetsEncrypt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#Supported OS
|
|
1. Ubuntu/Debian.
|
|
2. CentOS
|
|
|
|
|
|
#Supported Mode
|
|
1. Webroot mode
|
|
2. Standalone mode
|
|
3. Apache mode
|
|
|
|
#How to use
|
|
|
|
1. Clone this project: https://github.com/Neilpang/le.git
|
|
|
|
2. Install le:
|
|
```
|
|
./le.sh install
|
|
```
|
|
Which does 3 jobs:
|
|
* create and copy `le.sh` to your home dir: `~/.le`
|
|
All the certs will be placed in this folder.
|
|
* create symbol link: `/bin/le -> ~/.le/le.sh`
|
|
* create everyday cron job to check and renew the cert if needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ok, you are ready to issue cert now.
|
|
Show help message:
|
|
```
|
|
root@xvm:~# le
|
|
Usage: issue|renew|renewAll|createAccountKey|createDomainKey|createCSR|install|uninstall
|
|
|
|
root@xvm:~# le issue
|
|
Usage: le issue webroot|no|apache a.com [www.a.com,b.com,c.com]|no [key-length]|no [cert-file-path]|no [key-file-path]|no [ca-cert-file-path]|no [reloadCmd]|no
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Set the param value to "no" means you want to ignore it.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you give "no" to "key-length", it will use default length 2048.
|
|
|
|
And if you give 'no' to 'cert-file-path', it will not copy the issued cert to the "cert-file-path".
|
|
|
|
In all the cases, the issued cert will be placed in "~/.le/domain.com/"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Just issue a cert:
|
|
```
|
|
le issue /home/wwwroot/aa.com aa.com www.aa.com,cp.aa.com
|
|
```
|
|
First argument `/home/wwwroot/aa.com` is the web root folder, You must have `write` access to this folder.
|
|
|
|
Second argument "aa.com" is the main domain you want to issue cert for.
|
|
|
|
Third argument is the additional domain list you want to use. Comma separated list, which is Optional.
|
|
|
|
You must point and bind all the domains to the same webroot dir:`/home/wwwroot/aa.com`
|
|
|
|
The cert will be placed in `~/.le/aa.com/`
|
|
|
|
|
|
The issued cert will be renewed every 50 days automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Issue a cert, and install to apache/nginx
|
|
```
|
|
le issue /home/wwwroot/aa.com aa.com www.aa.com,cp.aa.com 2048 /path/to/certfile/in/apache/nginx /path/to/keyfile/in/apache/nginx /path/to/ca/certfile/apahce/nginx "service apache2/nginx reload"
|
|
```
|
|
Which issues the cert and then links it to the production apache or nginx path.
|
|
The cert will be renewed every 50 days by default (which is configurable), Once the cert is renewed, the apache/nginx will be automatically reloaded by the command: ` service apache2 reload` or `service nginx reload`
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Use Standalone server:
|
|
Same usage as all above, just give `no` as the webroot.
|
|
The tcp `80` port must be free to listen, otherwise you will be prompted to free the `80` port and try again.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
le issue no aa.com www.aa.com,cp.aa.com
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Use Apache mode:
|
|
If you are running a web server, apache or nginx, it is recommended to use the Webroot mode.
|
|
Particularly, if you are running an apache server, you can use apache mode instead. Which doesn't write any file to your web root folder.
|
|
|
|
Just set string "apache" to the first argument, it will use apache plugin automatically.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
le issue apache aa.com www.aa.com
|
|
```
|
|
All the other arguments are the same with previous.
