CertWarden
CertWarden is a self-hosted Centralized ACME Certificate Management platform. With it you can manage and aquire Let's Encrypt certificates.
However, to deploy them to your hosts, for now there only was a docker client, and that was too bloated for me.
So I built certwarden-deploy, a dependency-less binary that can run via crontab/systemd timers and that can fetch new certificates and run actions after new certificates got rolled out.
Quick Start
Installation of the required CertWarden instance is out of scope of this documentation. For detailed instructions regarding CertWarden, please visit it's documentation
To quickly get started with certwarden-deploy, just download the binary...
# this downloads certwarden-deploy version 0.1.1
# to /usr/local/bin/certwarden-deploy
sudo wget https://code.lila.network/adoralaura/certwarden-deploy/releases/download/0.1.1/certwarden-deploy-0.1.1-linux-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/certwarden-deploy
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/certwarden-deploy
... fill out the config file...
vi /etc/certwarden-deploy/config.yaml
# Base URL of the CertWarden instance
# required
base_url: "https://certwarden.example.com"
# Set this to true if your CertWarden instance does not have a publicly trusted
# TLS certificate (e.g. it has a self signed one)
# default is false
disable_certificate_validation: false
# define all managed certificates here
certificates:
# name is a unique identifier that must start and end with an alphanumeric character,
# and can contain the following characters: a-zA-Z0-9._-
# required
- name: test-certificate.example.com
# Contains the API-Key to fetch the certificate from the server
# required
api_key: examplekey_notvalid_hrzjGDDw8z
# action to run when certificate was updated or --force is on
action: "/usr/bin/systemd reload caddy"
# path where to save the certificate
# required
file_path: "/path/to/test-certificate.example.com-cert.pem"
... and run it!
certwarden-deploy -v
