Greenlock™ for Web Servers | a Root project

Free SSL, Free Wildcard SSL, and Fully Automated HTTPS made dead simple
certificates issued by Let's Encrypt v2 via ACME

Features

  • Commandline (cli) Certificate Manager (like certbot)
  • Integrated Web Server
  • Free SSL Certificates
  • Automatic certificate renewal before expiration
  • One-off standalone registration / renewal
  • On-the-fly registration / renewal via webroot

Install

Mac & Linux

Open Terminal and run this install script:

curl -fsS https://get.greenlock.app/ | bash

This will install greenlock to /opt/greenlock and put a symlink to /opt/greenlock/bin/greenlock in /usr/local/bin/greenlock for convenience.

You can customize the installation:

export NODEJS_VER=v8.11.1
export GREENLOCK_PATH=/opt/greenlock
curl -fsS https://get.greenlock.app/ | bash

This will change which version of node.js is bundled with greenlock and the path to which greenlock installs.

Windows & Node.js

  1. Install node.js
  2. Open Node.js
  3. Run the command npm install -g greenlock-cli

Usage

We have a few different examples of issuing SSL certificates:

  • Standalone (testing): Issue a one-off certificate
  • Webroot (production): Automatic certificate renewal for Apache, Nginx, HAProxy, etc
  • Manual (debugging): Go through the certificate proccess step-by-step

Important Note: Staging vs Production

Each of these examples are using the staging server.

Once you've successfully gotten certificates with the staging server you must delete --config-dir (i.e. rm -rf ~/acme) and then switch to the production server.

--acme-version draft-11 --server https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory \

Standalone

primarily for testing

You can run in standalone mode on your server and get a cert instantly.

Note: No other webserver may be running at the time (use Webroot mode for that).

sudo greenlock certonly --standalone \
  --acme-version draft-11 --acme-url https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory \
  --agree-tos --email jon@example.com --domains example.com,www.example.com \
  --community-member \
  --config-dir ~/acme/etc

WebRoot

for testing and production

With this method you must use your existing http (port 80) server (Apache, Nginx, HAProxy, etc). You will specify the path or template path to your public_html or www webroot.

For example:

  • I want to get an SSL cert for example.com
  • index.html lives at /srv/www/example.com
  • I would use this command:
sudo greenlock certonly --webroot \
  --acme-version draft-11 --acme-url https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory \
  --agree-tos --email jon@example.com --domains example.com \
  --community-member \
  --root /srv/www/example.com \
  --config-dir ~/acme/etc

Now let's say that

  • I have many sites in /srv/www/, all by their name
  • I already store my ssl certs in the format /etc/apache/ssl/:hostname/{key.pem,ssl.crt}
  • I'll run this command instead:
sudo greenlock certonly --webroot \
  --acme-version draft-11 --acme-url https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory \
  --agree-tos --email jon@example.com --domains example.com,whatever.com,foobar.net \
  --community-member \
  --root "/srv/www/:hostname" \
  --privkey-path "/etc/apache/ssl/:hostname/key.pem" \
  --fullchain-path "/etc/apache/ssl/:hostname/ssl.crt" \
  --config-dir ~/acme/etc

Run with cron

Those commands are safe to be run daily with cron. The certificates will automatically renew 2 weeks before expiring.

Interactive

primarily for debugging

The token (for all challenge types) and keyAuthorization (only for https-01) will be printed to the screen and you will be given time to copy it wherever (file, dns record, database, etc) and the process will complete once you hit enter.

sudo greenlock certonly --manual \
  --acme-version draft-11 --acme-url https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory \
  --agree-tos --email jon@example.com --domains example.com \
  --community-member \
  --config-dir ~/acme/etc

Certificate Locations

Then you can see your certs at ~/acme/etc/live.

~/acme/etc/
└── example.com
    ├── cert.pem
    ├── chain.pem
    ├── fullchain.pem  (Apache, Nginx, node.js)
    ├── privkey.pem    (Apache, Nginx, node.js)
    └── bundle.pem     (HAProxy)

Run without root (no sudo)

sudo is used to allow greenlock to use port 80 and write to httpd-owned directories.

Allow greenlock to bind on system ports without root:

sudo setcap cap_net_bind_service=+ep /opt/greenlock/bin/node

To allow greenlock to write to folders owned by another user, set it to run as that user.

Otherwise, you can change the permissions on the folders, which is probably a BAD IDEA. Probabry a security risk. But since some of you are going to do it anyway I might as well tell you how:

# PROBABLY A BAD IDEA
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /etc/ssl /etc/acme
