Let’s Encrypt + Certbot
Some findings related to usage of Let's Encrypt and Certbot:
- Certs are valid for 90 days.
- Can be generated with cli with challenges like DNS (TXT Records), HTTP (/.well-known/acme-challenge/<TOKEN>)
- Wildcard certs can be generated with DNS challenge, but for auto-renew to work with this wildcard, DNS provider must have a certbot DNS plugin.
- Refer: https://eff-certbot.readthedocs.io/en/stable/using.html#dns-plugins
- Docker images: https://hub.docker.com/u/certbot
