| # An ACME Shell script: acme.sh [](https://travis-ci.org/Neilpang/acme.sh)
 | |
| - An ACME protocol client written purely in Shell (Unix shell) language.
 | |
| - Full ACME protocol implementation.
 | |
| - Simple, powerful and very easy to use. You only need 3 minutes to learn it.
 | |
| - Bash, dash and sh compatible.
 | |
| - Simplest shell script for Let's Encrypt free certificate client.
 | |
| - Purely written in Shell with no dependencies on python or the official Let's Encrypt client.
 | |
| - Just one script to issue, renew and install your certificates automatically.
 | |
| - DOES NOT require `root/sudoer` access.
 | |
| 
 | |
| It's probably the `easiest&smallest&smartest` shell script to automatically issue & renew the free certificates from Let's Encrypt.

| # 1. How to install
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 1. Install online
 | |
| 
 | |
| Check this project: https://github.com/Neilpang/get.acme.sh
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| curl https://get.acme.sh | sh
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Or:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| wget -O -  https://get.acme.sh | sh
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 2. Or, Install from git
 | |
| 
 | |
| Clone this project and launch installation:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| git clone https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh.git
 | |
| cd ./acme.sh
 | |
| ./acme.sh --install
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You `don't have to be root` then, although `it is recommended`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Advanced Installation: https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-install
 | |
| 
 | |
| The installer will perform 3 actions:
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Create and copy `acme.sh` to your home dir (`$HOME`): `~/.acme.sh/`.
 | |
| All certs will be placed in this folder too.
 | |
| 2. Create alias for: `acme.sh=~/.acme.sh/acme.sh`.
 | |
| 3. Create daily cron job to check and renew the certs if needed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Cron entry example:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| 0 0 * * * "/home/user/.acme.sh"/acme.sh --cron --home "/home/user/.acme.sh" > /dev/null
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| After the installation, you must close the current terminal and reopen it to make the alias take effect.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Ok, you are ready to issue certs now.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Show help message:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| root@v1:~# acme.sh -h
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 2. Just issue a cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Example 1:** Single domain.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --issue -d example.com -w /home/wwwroot/example.com
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Example 2:** Multiple domains in the same cert.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --issue -d example.com -d www.example.com -d cp.example.com -w /home/wwwroot/example.com
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| The parameter `/home/wwwroot/example.com` is the web root folder. You **MUST** have `write access` to this folder.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Second argument **"example.com"** is the main domain you want to issue the cert for.
 | |
| You must have at least one domain there.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You must point and bind all the domains to the same webroot dir: `/home/wwwroot/example.com`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generated/issued certs will be placed in `~/.acme.sh/example.com/`
 | |
| 
 | |
| The issued cert will be renewed automatically every **60** days.
 | |
| 
 | |
| More examples: https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-issue-a-cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 3. Install the issued cert to Apache/Nginx etc.
 | |
| 
 | |
| After you issue a cert, you probably want to install/copy the cert to your Apache/Nginx or other servers.
 | |
| You **MUST** use this command to copy the certs to the target files, **DO NOT** use the certs files in **~/.acme.sh/** folder, they are for internal use only, the folder structure may change in the future.
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Apache** example:
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --installcert -d example.com \
 | |
| --certpath      /path/to/certfile/in/apache/cert.pem  \
 | |
| --keypath       /path/to/keyfile/in/apache/key.pem  \
 | |
| --fullchainpath /path/to/fullchain/certfile/apache/fullchain.pem \
 | |
| --reloadcmd     "service apache2 restart"
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Nginx** example:
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --installcert -d example.com \
 | |
| --keypath       /path/to/keyfile/in/nginx/key.pem  \
 | |
| --fullchainpath /path/to/fullchain/nginx/cert.pem \
 | |
| --reloadcmd     "service nginx restart"
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Only the domain is required, all the other parameters are optional.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Install/copy the issued cert/key to the production Apache or Nginx path.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The cert will be `renewed every **60** days by default` (which is configurable). Once the cert is renewed, the Apache/Nginx service will be restarted automatically by the command: `service apache2 restart` or `service nginx restart`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 4. Use Standalone server to issue cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| **(requires you to be root/sudoer or have permission to listen on port 80 (TCP))**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Port `80` (TCP) **MUST** be free to listen on, otherwise you will be prompted to free it and try again.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --issue --standalone -d example.com -d www.example.com -d cp.example.com
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| More examples: https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-issue-a-cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 5. Use Standalone TLS server to issue cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| **(requires you to be root/sudoer or have permission to listen on port 443 (TCP))**
 | |
| 
 | |
| acme.sh supports `tls-sni-01` validation.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Port `443` (TCP) **MUST** be free to listen on, otherwise you will be prompted to free it and try again.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --issue --tls -d example.com -d www.example.com -d cp.example.com
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| More examples: https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-issue-a-cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 6. Use Apache mode
 | |
| 
 | |
| **(requires you to be root/sudoer, since it is required to interact with Apache server)**
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you are running a web server, Apache or Nginx, it is recommended to use the `Webroot mode`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Particularly, if you are running an Apache server, you should use Apache mode instead. This mode doesn't write any files to your web root folder.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Just set string "apache" as the second argument and it will force use of apache plugin automatically.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| acme.sh --issue --apache -d example.com -d www.example.com -d cp.example.com
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| More examples: https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-issue-a-cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 7. Use DNS mode:
 | |
| 
 | |
| Support the `dns-01` challenge.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --issue --dns -d example.com -d www.example.com -d cp.example.com
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You should get an output like below:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| Add the following txt record:
 | |
| Domain:_acme-challenge.example.com
 | |
| Txt value:9ihDbjYfTExAYeDs4DBUeuTo18KBzwvTEjUnSwd32-c
 | |
| 
 | |
| Add the following txt record:
 | |
| Domain:_acme-challenge.www.example.com
 | |
| Txt value:9ihDbjxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 | |
| 
 | |
| Please add those txt records to the domains. Waiting for the dns to take effect.
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Then just rerun with `renew` argument:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --renew -d example.com
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Ok, it's finished.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 8. Automatic DNS API integration
 | |
| 
 | |
| If your DNS provider supports API access, we can use that API to automatically issue the certs.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You don't have to do anything manually!
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Currently acme.sh supports:
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. CloudFlare.com API
 | |
| 1. DNSPod.cn API
 | |
| 1. CloudXNS.com API
 | |
| 1. GoDaddy.com API
 | |
| 1. OVH, kimsufi, soyoustart and runabove API
 | |
| 1. AWS Route 53
 | |
| 1. PowerDNS.com API
 | |
| 1. lexicon DNS API: https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-use-lexicon-dns-api
 | |
|    (DigitalOcean, DNSimple, DNSMadeEasy, DNSPark, EasyDNS, Namesilo, NS1, PointHQ, Rage4 and Vultr etc.)
 | |
| 1. LuaDNS.com API
 | |
| 1. DNSMadeEasy.com API
 | |
| 1. nsupdate API
 | |
| 
 | |

| # 9. Issue ECC certificates
 | |
| 
 | |
| `Let's Encrypt` can now issue **ECDSA** certificates.
 | |
| 
 | |
| And we support them too!
 | |
| 
 | |
| Just set the `length` parameter with a prefix `ec-`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| For example:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Single domain ECC cerfiticate
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --issue -w /home/wwwroot/example.com -d example.com --keylength ec-256
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### SAN multi domain ECC certificate
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| acme.sh --issue -w /home/wwwroot/example.com -d example.com -d www.example.com --keylength ec-256
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Please look at the last parameter above.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Valid values are:
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. **ec-256 (prime256v1, "ECDSA P-256")**
 | |
| 2. **ec-384 (secp384r1,  "ECDSA P-384")**
 | |
| 3. **ec-521 (secp521r1,  "ECDSA P-521", which is not supported by Let's Encrypt yet.)**
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 10. How to renew the issued certs
 | |
| 
 | |
| No, you don't need to renew the certs manually. All the certs will be renewed automatically every **60** days.
 | |
| 
 | |
| However, you can also force to renew any cert:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| acme.sh --renew -d example.com --force
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| or, for ECC cert:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| acme.sh --renew -d example.com --force --ecc
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # 11. How to upgrade `acme.sh`
 | |
| 
 | |
| acme.sh is in constant developement, so it's strongly recommended to use the latest code.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can update acme.sh to the latest code:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| acme.sh --upgrade
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also enable auto upgrade:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| acme.sh --upgrade --auto-upgrade
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Then **acme.sh** will be kept up to date automatically.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Disable auto upgrade:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| acme.sh --upgrade --auto-upgrade 0
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
|
