### letsencrypt (the library)
There are **NO DEFAULTS**. A number of **constants** (such as LE.stagingServerUrl and LE.configDir)
are exported for your convenience, but all required options must be specified by the library invoking the call.
Open an issue if you need a variable for something that isn't there yet.
```javascript
var config = require('./examples/config-minimal');
var LE = require('letsencrypt');
config.le.webrootPath = __dirname + '/tests/acme-challenge';
var le = require('letsencrypt').create(config.le);
le.register({
agreeTos: true
, domains: ['example.com'] // CHANGE TO YOUR DOMAIN
, email: 'user@email.com' // CHANGE TO YOUR EMAIL
, standalone: true
var config = {
, server: LE.stagingServerUrl // or LE.productionServerUrl
, configDir: require('homedir')() + '/letsencrypt/etc' // or /etc/letsencrypt or wherever
, privkeyPath: ':config/live/:hostname/privkey.pem' //
, fullchainPath: ':config/live/:hostname/fullchain.pem' // Note: both that :config and :hostname
, certPath: ':config/live/:hostname/cert.pem' // will be templated as expected
, chainPath: ':config/live/:hostname/chain.pem' //
, debug: false
};
var handlers = {
setChallenge: function (opts, hostname, key, val, cb) {} // called during the ACME server handshake, before validation
, removeChallenge: function (opts, hostname, key, cb) {} // called after validation on both success and failure
, getChallenge: function (opts, hostname, key, cb) {} // this is special because it is called by the webserver
// (see letsencrypt-cli/bin & letsencrypt-express/standalone),
// not by the library itself
, agreeToTerms: function (tosUrl, cb) {} // gives you an async way to expose the legal agreement
// (terms of use) to your users before accepting
};
var le = LE.create(config, handlers);
// checks :conf/renewal/:hostname.conf
le.register({ // and either renews or registers
domains: ['example.com'] // CHANGE TO YOUR DOMAIN
, email: 'user@email.com' // CHANGE TO YOUR EMAIL
, agreeTos: false // set to true to automatically accept an agreement
// which you have pre-approved (not recommended)
}, function (err) {
if (err) {
// Note: you must have a webserver running
// and expose handlers.getChallenge to it
// in order to pass validation
// See letsencrypt-cli and or letsencrypt-express
console.error('[Error]: node-letsencrypt/examples/standalone');
console.error(err.stack);
} else {
console.log('success');
}
plainServer.close();
tlsServer.close();
});
// IMPORTANT
// you also need BOTH an http AND https server that serve directly
// from webrootPath, which might as well be a special folder reserved
// only for acme/letsencrypt challenges
//
// app.use('/', express.static(config.le.webrootPath))
```
**However**, due to the nature of what this library does, it has a few more "moving parts"

Examples
========
The simplest example of setting up a webserver appropriately is probably `letsencrypt-cli` (~120 lines of code):
* [letsencrypt-cli//lib/standalone.js](https://github.com/Daplie/node-letsencrypt-cli/blob/master/lib/standalone.js)
Similary, `letsencrypt-cli`'s usage of `le.register()` is fairly simple (~75 lines of code):
* [letsencrypt-cli/bin/letsencrypt.js](https://github.com/Daplie/node-letsencrypt-cli/blob/master/bin/letsencrypt.js)
### One-Time Registration
Register a 90-day certificate manually, on a whim
**Note**: We've been running a fast development cycle and this example may be out of date.
The API *shouldn't* have changed much but, we probably need to come back and update it.
#### Snippets
