CLI script to programmatically replace SSL certs on Synology NAS

replace_synology_ssl_certs.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# *** For DSM v7.x ***
#
# How to use this script:
#  1. Get your 3 PEM files ready to copy over from your local machine/update server (privkey.pem, fullchain.pem, cert.pem)
#     and put into a directory (this will be $CERT_DIRECTORY).
#     Personally, I use this script (https://gist.github.com/catchdave/3f6f412bbf0f0cec32469fb0c9747295) to automate steps 1 & 4.
#  2. Ensure you have a user setup on synology that has ssh access (and ssh access is setup).
#     This user will need to be able to sudo as root (i.e. add this line to sudoers, <USER> is the user you create):
#       <USER> ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /var/services/homes/<USER>/replace_certs.sh
#  3. Copy this script to Synology: sudo scp replace_synology_ssl_certs.sh $USER@$SYNOLOGY_SERVER:~/
#  4. Call this script as follows:
#     sudo bash -c scp ${CERT_DIRECTORY}/{privkey,fullchain,cert}.pem $USER@$SYNOLOGY_SERVER:/tmp/ \
#     && ssh $USER@$SYNOLOGY_SERVER 'sudo ./replace_synology_ssl_certs.sh'

# Script start.

Hello @catchdave. Nice script! I want to test it. But I have DS218+ where in all certs directories are not just 3 files which is copied by your script.
There are these structure:

cert.pem  chain.pem  fullchain.pem  info  privkey.pem  root.pem  short-chain.pem

I can create cert.pem chain.pem fullchain.pem privkey.pem
But I haven't idea about root.pem short-chain.pem.

Do you have same structure? Or is it something new? How to solve it? Thx for info.

@raven2cz my advice is to initially manually add your LE cert and make it default. Through the DSM interface, the mapping of LE generated files is:

       	Private Key ---------------> privkey.pem
       	Certificate ---------------> cert.pem
	Intermediate Certificate --> fullchain.pem

Once that's done and the LE cert is now your default certificate, the script should work fine.

Great script. You may also be interested in my old scripts for managing certificates also for other apps like MailStation and co. Recently I added also synow3tool call to be able to reload nginx properly in DSM7. This script presents jsut a slightly different approach and was mainly developed for DSM6. If you have a reliable way of reloading services in the absence of /usr/local/libexec/certificate.d/$subscriber in DSM7 I would really appreciate
