# dehydrated
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
This is a client for signing certificates with an ACME-server (currently only provided by Let's Encrypt) implemented as a relatively simple bash-script.
|
|
|
|
It uses the `openssl` utility for everything related to actually handling keys and certificates, so you need to have that installed.
|
|
|
|
Other dependencies are: cURL, sed, grep, mktemp (all found on almost any system, cURL being the only exception)
|
|
|
|
Current features:
|
|
- Signing of a list of domains
|
|
- Signing of a CSR
|
|
- Renewal if a certificate is about to expire or SAN (subdomains) changed
|
|
- Certificate revocation
|
|
|
|
Please keep in mind that this software and even the acme-protocol are relatively young and may still have some unresolved issues. Feel free to report any issues you find with this script or contribute by submitting a pull request.
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
For getting started I recommend taking a look at [docs/domains_txt.md](docs/domains_txt.md), [docs/wellknown.md](docs/wellknown.md) and the [Usage](#usage) section on this page (you'll probably only need the `-c` option).
|
|
|
|
Generally you want to set up your WELLKNOWN path first, and then fill in domains.txt.
|
|
|
|
**Please note that you should use the staging URL when experimenting with this script to not hit Let's Encrypt's rate limits.** See [docs/staging.md](docs/staging.md).
|
|
|
|
If you have any problems take a look at our [Troubleshooting](docs/troubleshooting.md) guide.
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
|
|
dehydrated is looking for a config file in a few different places, it will use the first one it can find in this order:
|
|
|
|
- `/etc/dehydrated/config`
|
|
- `/usr/local/etc/dehydrated/config`
|
|
- The current working directory of your shell
|
|
- The directory from which dehydrated was run
|
|
|
|
Have a look at [docs/examples/config](docs/examples/config) to get started, copy it to e.g. `/etc/dehydrated/config`
|
|
and edit it to fit your needs.
|
|
|
|

## Donate
|
|
|
|
I'm having fun developing dehydrated, but it takes time, and time is money, at least that's what I've been told.
|
|
|
|
I will definitively continue developing dehydrated for free, but if you want to support me you can do so using the following ways:
|
|
|
|
### PayPal

|
|
### Server
|
|
|
|
I'm still planning on building a bigger testing-suite for dehydrated, it would be really cool to have a big(ish) server running
|
|
in a datacenter somewhere without having to pay for it... If you are a server provider and can offer me a (dedicated!) machine,
|
|
please contact me at `donations@dehydrated.de`.
|
|
|
|
### Other ways
|
|
|
|
I always like to play around with modern(ish) network and computer gear, 10G switches and stuff, modern ARM boards
|
|
(but please not that Raspberry Pi rubbish), tiny PCs for routing, etc.
|
|
|
|
If you have something that seems of value and that you don't need anymore feel free to contact me at
|
|
`donations@dehydrated.de`.
