iml-certman
Wrapper for acme.sh to create Let's Encrypt certificates based on CSR files using DNS authentication. It was written to create/ renew all needed certificates at a central system to deploy it from there (Ansible, Puppet, ...).

Installation
- Install acme.sh client: https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh
- Clone or extract files of iml-certman
- Make your changes by copying *dist files to file without ".dist" extension and edit
- inc_config.sh
- set credentials for dns api
- set path to acme.sh script; the default is a relative path for the suggested contellation below.
- optional: set custom target for generated certificates
- optional: for testing enable Let's Encrypt stage server to prevent running into weekly limits during tests
- optional: set a filter that must match to new certificate and all aliases
- templates/csr.txt
- set location, company and department ... remark: (currently?) it is removed by LE
- inc_config.sh
A suggested structure is having acme.sh and this wrapper below the same parent directory, i.e.
/opt/letsenecrypt/
|
+-- acms.sh/
| |
| + acms.sh
| + ...
|
+-- iml-certman/
|
+-- certs/
+-- csr/
+-- templates/
+ cm.sh
+ inc_config.sh
+ ...Usage
Without any parameter it shows a help.
Verify a new setup (or changes in the config) with ./cm.sh selftest.
./cm.sh

HELP
The basic syntax is
cm.sh ACTION [FQDN] [ALIAS_1 [.. ALIAS_N]]
The ACTIONs for SINGLE certificate handlings are:
add FQDN [.. FQDN-N]
create new certificate
The first FQDN is a hostname to generate the certificate for.
Following multiple hostnames will be used as DNS aliases in the
same certificate.
It updates files in ./certs
ensure FQDN [.. FQDN-N]
It ensures that a certificate with given aliases exists and is up to date.
This param is for simple usage in automation tools like Ansible or Puppet.
It is required to add all aliases as parameters what is unhandy for
direct usage on cli.
If the cert does not exist it will be created (see "add").
If fqdn and aliases are the same like in the certificate it performs a renew.
If fqdn and aliases differ:
- the current certificate will be rejected + deleted (see "delete")
- a new certificate will be added ()
delete FQDN
delete all files of a given certificate
renew FQDN
renew (an already added) certificate
and update files in ./certs
show FQDN
show place of csr + certificate data and show basic certificate data
(issuer, subject, aliases, ending date)
ACTIONs for ALL certs
list
list all certificates including creation and renew date
renew-all
renew all certificates (fast mode - without --force)
and update files in ./certs
It is useful for a cronjob.
other ACTIONs
selftest
check of health with current setup and requirements.
This command is helpful for initial setups.
