# le-store-SPEC The reference implementation, specification, template, and tests for creating an le-store- strategy. The reference implementation is completely in-memory. See [Help Wanted: Database Plugins (for saving certs)](https://github.com/Daplie/node-letsencrypt/issues/39) How to create a custom strategy =============================== Let's say there's some new database AwesomeDB that we want to make a plugin for, here's how we'd start: ```bash # First create you repo on github or wherever # Then clone it git clone git@github.com:AwesomeDB/le-store-awesome.git pushd le-store-awesome git pull https://github.com/Daplie/le-store-SPEC.git template git push ``` Or, if you already have some code and just need to merge in the tests: ```bash git pull https://github.com/Daplie/le-store-SPEC.git tests ``` Next, Just run the tests ``` node tests/basic.js ``` Note: you should not modify the tests that come from the tests branch, but rather create separate files for your own tests. API === ``` * getOptions() * accounts. * checkKeypair(opts, cb) * setKeypair(opts, keypair, cb) * check(opts, cb) * set(opts, reg, cb) * certificates. * checkKeypair(opts, cb) * setKeypair(opts, keypair, cb) * check(opts, cb) * set(opts, certs, cb) ``` Keypairs -------- For convenience, the keypair object will always contain **both** PEM and JWK versions of the private and/or public keys when being passed to the `*Keypair` functions. **set** `setKeypair` will always be called with `email` and **all three** forms of the keypair: `privateKeyPem`, `publicKeyPem`, and `privateKeyJwk`. It's easy to generate `publicKeyJwk` from `privateKeyJwk` because it is just a copy of the public fields `e` and `n`. **check** `checkKeypair` may be called with any of `email`, `accountId`, and `keypair` - which will contain only `publicKeyPem` and `publicKeyJwk`.
