become a `communityMember`
==================
If you're the kind of person that likes the kinds of stuff that I do,
well, I want to do more of it and I'd like to get you involved.
When you set the `communityMember` option to `true` I save your
email and I'm able to inform you when there are mandatory updates
(such as with Let's Encrypt v2), notify you of important security issues,
give you early access to similar projects, and
get your feedback from time to time.
I'll also get a hash of domain names that receive and renew certificates,
which is a metric that has long interested me and may help me in getting
non-developers involved in this and future projects.

### Working Example Code
2018-04-20 07:14:39 +00:00
Here's a completely working example that will get you started.
2018-04-20 08:59:33 +00:00
```
git clone https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js.git
pushd greenlock-express.js
npm install
popd
# edit 'email' and 'approveDomains' in
# greenlock-express.js/examples/simple.js
node greenlock-express.js/examples/simple.js
```
2018-04-20 07:14:39 +00:00
All you have to do is start the webserver and then visit it at its domain name.
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
`app.js`:
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
```javascript
'use strict';
2017-01-25 22:02:16 +00:00
require('greenlock-express').create({
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
// Let's Encrypt v2 is ACME draft 11
version: 'draft-11'
2018-05-19 23:54:08 +00:00
// Note: If at first you don't succeed, switch to staging to debug
// https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
2018-07-03 09:25:12 +00:00
, server: 'https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory'
// Where the certs will be saved, MUST have write access
, configDir: '~/.config/acme/'
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
// You MUST change this to a valid email address
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
, email: 'john.doe@example.com'
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
// You MUST change these to valid domains
// NOTE: all domains will validated and listed on the certificate
, approveDomains: [ 'example.com', 'www.example.com' ]
2018-07-03 09:25:12 +00:00
// You MUST NOT build clients that accept the ToS without asking the user
, agreeTos: true
2016-08-16 01:15:16 +00:00
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
, app: require('express')().use('/', function (req, res) {
res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/html; charset=utf-8')
res.end('Hello, World!\n\n💚 🔒.js');
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
})
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2018-07-03 09:25:12 +00:00
// Join the community to get notified of important updates
2018-05-10 06:53:45 +00:00
, communityMember: true
2018-05-26 01:28:11 +00:00
// Contribute telemetry data to the project
, telemetry: true
//, debug: true
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
}).listen(80, 443);
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
```
### What if the example didn't work?
2018-04-20 07:23:22 +00:00
Double check the following:
* **Public Facing IP** for `http-01` challenges
* Are you running this *as* a public-facing webserver (good)? or localhost (bad)?
* Does `ifconfig` show a public address (good)? or a private one - 10.x, 192.168.x, etc (bad)?
* If you're on a non-public server, are you using the `dns-01` challenge?
* **correct ACME version**
* Let's Encrypt **v2** (ACME v2) must use `version: 'draft-11'`
* Let's Encrypt v1 must use `version: 'v01'`
* **valid email**
* You MUST set `email` to a **valid address**
* MX records must validate (`dig MX example.com` for `'john@example.com'`)
* **valid DNS records**
* You MUST set `approveDomains` to real domains
* Must have public DNS records (test with `dig +trace A example.com; dig +trace www.example.com` for `[ 'example.com', 'www.example.com' ]`)
* **write access**
* You MUST set `configDir` to a writeable location (test with `touch ~/acme/etc/tmp.tmp`)
* **port binding privileges**
2018-04-21 02:24:50 +00:00
* You MUST be able to bind to ports 80 and 443
2018-04-20 07:23:22 +00:00
* You can do this via `sudo` or [`setcap`](https://gist.github.com/firstdoit/6389682)
* **API limits**
* You MUST NOT exceed the API [**usage limits**](https://letsencrypt.org/docs/staging-environment/) per domain, certificate, IP address, etc
* **Red Lock, Untrusted**
2018-05-19 23:54:08 +00:00
* You MUST use the **production** server url, not staging
* The API URL should not have 'acme-staging-v02', but should have 'acme-v02'
* Delete the `configDir` used for getting certificates in staging
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2018-05-19 23:54:08 +00:00
### Production vs Staging
If at first you don't succeed, stop and switch to staging.
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
There are a number of common problems related to system configuration -
firewalls, ports, permissions, etc - that you are likely to run up against
2017-01-25 22:02:16 +00:00
when using greenlock for your first time.
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2018-05-19 23:54:08 +00:00
I've put a "dry run" in place with built-in diagnostics, so hopefully
you get everything right on your first or second try.
However, in order to avoid being blocked by hitting the bad request rate limits
you should switch to using the `staging` server for any testing or debugging.

|:---------------:|:---------:|
| **QuickStart** | [examples/quickstart.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js/src/branch/master/examples/quickstart.js) uses the fewest options and accepts all default settings. It's guaranteed to work for you. |
| Production | [examples/production.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js/src/branch/master/examples/production.js) shows how to require an express app (or other middleware system), expand the `approveDomains` callback, provides an example database shim, and exposes the server instance. |
2018-08-18 10:36:58 +00:00
| Virtual&nbsp;Hosting | [examples/vhost.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js/src/branch/master/examples/vhost.js) shows how to dynamically secure and serve domains based on their existance on the file system. |
2018-11-05 05:53:12 +00:00
| HTTP2&nbsp;(spdy) | Presently spdy is incompatible with node v11, but [examples/spdy.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js/src/branch/master/examples/spdy.js) demonstrates how to manually configure a node web server with spdy-compatible versions of node and Greenlock. |
2018-08-18 10:36:58 +00:00
| HTTP2&nbsp;(node) | [examples/http2.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js/src/branch/master/examples/http2.js) uses node's new HTTP2 module, which is NOT compatible with the existing middleware systems (and is not "stable" as of v10.0). |
| WebSockets&nbsp;(ws) | [examples/websockets.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js/src/branch/master/examples/websockets.js) demonstrates how to use Greenlock express with a websocket server. |

Usage
=====
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
The oversimplified example was the bait
(because everyone seems to want an example that fits in 3 lines, even if it's terribly bad practices),
2018-04-20 08:59:33 +00:00
now here's the switch.
We have another completely working example that will provides a little more to build off of.
```
git clone https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js.git
pushd greenlock-express.js
npm install
popd
# replace 'fooCheckDb' in
# greenlock-express.js/examples/normal.js
node greenlock-express.js/examples/normal.js
```
It looks a little more like this:
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
`serve.js`:
```javascript
'use strict';
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2018-04-20 05:32:15 +00:00
// returns an instance of greenlock.js with additional helper methods
var glx = require('greenlock-express').create({
2018-05-19 23:54:08 +00:00
server: 'https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory'
// Note: If at first you don't succeed, stop and switch to staging:
// https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
2018-04-20 03:37:56 +00:00
, version: 'draft-11' // Let's Encrypt v2 (ACME v2)
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2018-05-12 02:33:22 +00:00
// If you wish to replace the default account and domain key storage plugin
2018-05-12 02:51:22 +00:00
, store: require('le-store-certbot').create({
configDir: require('path').join(require('os').homedir(), 'acme', 'etc')
, webrootPath: '/tmp/acme-challenges'
})
2016-08-12 07:48:21 +00:00
2018-05-26 01:28:11 +00:00
// Contribute telemetry data to the project
, telemetry: true
2016-08-17 15:11:10 +00:00
, approveDomains: approveDomains
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
});
var server = glx.listen(80, 443, function () {
console.log("Listening on port 80 for ACME challenges and 443 for express app.");
});
2016-08-17 15:09:43 +00:00
```
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
Note: You shouldn't be using the plain HTTP server for anything except, potentially, for error handling
on the listen event (if the default print-and-quit behavior doesn't work for your use case).
If you need to do that, here's how:
```
var plainServer = server.unencrypted;
plainServer.on('error', function (err) { ... });
```
2018-04-20 07:09:34 +00:00
The Automatic Certificate Issuance is initiated via SNI (`httpsOptions.SNICallback`).
For security, domain validation MUST have an approval callback in *production*.
2016-08-17 15:11:10 +00:00
```javascript
2018-05-12 02:29:21 +00:00
var http01 = require('le-challenge-fs').create({ webrootPath: '/tmp/acme-challenges' });
2016-08-17 15:11:10 +00:00
function approveDomains(opts, certs, cb) {
// This is where you check your database and associated
// email addresses with domains and agreements and such
2018-05-12 02:29:21 +00:00
// Opt-in to submit stats and get important updates
2018-05-10 06:53:45 +00:00
opts.communityMember = true;
2016-08-17 15:11:10 +00:00
2018-05-12 02:33:22 +00:00
// If you wish to replace the default challenge plugin, you may do so here
2018-05-12 02:29:21 +00:00
opts.challenges = { 'http-01': http01 };
2016-08-17 15:11:10 +00:00
// The domains being approved for the first time are listed in opts.domains
// Certs being renewed are listed in certs.altnames
if (certs) {
opts.domains = certs.altnames;
}
else {
opts.email = 'john.doe@example.com';
opts.agreeTos = true;
}
// NOTE: you can also change other options such as `challengeType` and `challenge`
// opts.challengeType = 'http-01';
// opts.challenge = require('le-challenge-fs').create({});
2016-08-17 15:11:10 +00:00
cb(null, { options: opts, certs: certs });
}
```
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2016-08-17 15:09:43 +00:00
```javascript
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
// handles acme-challenge and redirects to https
require('http').createServer(glx.middleware(require('redirect-https')())).listen(80, function () {
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
console.log("Listening for ACME http-01 challenges on", this.address());
});
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
var app = require('express')();
app.use('/', function (req, res) {
res.end('Hello, World!');
});
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
// handles your app
require('https').createServer(glx.httpsOptions, app).listen(443, function () {
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
console.log("Listening for ACME tls-sni-01 challenges and serve app on", this.address());
});
2016-08-12 07:02:33 +00:00
```
2016-08-17 15:25:07 +00:00
**Security Warning**:
If you don't do proper checks in `approveDomains(opts, certs, cb)`
an attacker will spoof SNI packets with bad hostnames and that will
cause you to be rate-limited and or blocked from the ACME server.

API
===
2016-08-12 07:56:19 +00:00
2016-08-16 01:15:16 +00:00
This module is an elaborate ruse (to provide an oversimplified example and to nab some SEO).
2018-04-20 05:32:15 +00:00
The API is actually located at [greenlock.js options](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock.js)
(because all options are simply passed through to `greenlock.js` proper without modification).
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
2018-04-20 05:32:15 +00:00
The only "API" consists of two options, the rest is just a wrapper around `greenlock.js` to take LOC from 15 to 5:
2016-08-15 23:12:39 +00:00
2016-08-16 01:15:16 +00:00
* `opts.app` An express app in the format `function (req, res) { ... }` (no `next`).
* `server = glx.listen(plainAddr, tlsAddr, onListen)` Accepts port numbers (or arrays of port numbers) to listen on, returns secure server.
* `listen(80, 443)`
* `listen(80, 443, onListenSecure)`
* `listen(80, 443, onListenPlain, onListenSecure)`
* `listen('localhost:80', '0.0.0.0:443')`
* `listen('[::1]:80', '[::]:443')`
* `listen('/tmp/glx.plain.sock', '/tmp/glx.secure.sock')`
2016-08-12 07:56:19 +00:00
2018-04-20 05:32:15 +00:00
Brief overview of some simple options for `greenlock.js`:
2016-08-12 07:56:19 +00:00
2018-04-20 05:32:15 +00:00
* `opts.server` set to https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory in production
2018-04-20 03:37:56 +00:00
* `opts.version` set to `v01` for Let's Encrypt v1 or `draft-11` for Let's Encrypt v2 (mistakenly called ACME v2)
2016-08-16 01:15:16 +00:00
* `opts.email` The default email to use to accept agreements.
* `opts.agreeTos` When set to `true`, this always accepts the LetsEncrypt TOS. When a string it checks the agreement url first.
2018-05-10 07:00:44 +00:00
* `opts.communityMember` Join the community to get notified of important updates and help make greenlock better
2016-08-17 15:25:07 +00:00
* `opts.approveDomains` can be either of:
* An explicit array of allowed domains such as `[ 'example.com', 'www.example.com' ]`
* A callback `function (opts, certs, cb) { cb(null, { options: opts, certs: certs }); }` for setting `email`, `agreeTos`, `domains`, etc (as shown in usage example above)
2016-08-16 01:15:16 +00:00
* `opts.renewWithin` is the **maximum** number of days (in ms) before expiration to renew a certificate.
* `opts.renewBy` is the **minimum** number of days (in ms) before expiration to renew a certificate.
2018-05-03 00:55:35 +00:00
## Supported ACME versions
* Let's Encrypt v1 (aka v01)
* Let's Encrypt v2 (aka v02 or ACME draft 11)
* ACME draft 11 (ACME v2 is a misnomer)
2018-05-10 07:00:44 +00:00
* Wildcard domains (via dns-01 challenges)
2018-05-10 06:53:45 +00:00
* `*.example.com`
