   This code powers the backend for a front-end in a google spreadsheet. If somehow you've arrived at this code without the spreadsheet, start by making a copy of that sheet by visiting this link:

   All of the setup instructions are available in the sheet or (with pictures!) in this blog post:

Let's Encrypt on Ubuntu 14.04, nginx with webroot auth

This document details how I setup LE on my server. Firstly, install the client as described on http://letsencrypt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/using.html and make sure you can execute it. I put it in /root/letsencrypt.

As it is not possible to change the ports used for the standalone authenticator and I already have a nginx running on port 80/443, I opted to use the webroot method for each of my domains (note that LE does not issue wildcard certificates by design, so you probably want to get a cert for www.example.com and example.com).

Configuration

For this, I placed config files into etc/letsencrypt/configs, named after <domain>.conf. The files are simple:

Install s3fs on Mac OS X

1 - Install Homebrew - http://brew.sh/
  ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
  
2 - Use Homebrew to install s3fs + dependencies
  brew install s3fs
  
3 - Do some custom stuff.  I only used the first step from here -> https://gist.github.com/fukayatsu/3910097
  sudo /bin/cp -rfX /usr/local/Cellar/fuse4x-kext/0.9.2/Library/Extensions/fuse4x.kext /Library/Extensions

Nginx FastCGI response buffer sizes

By default when Nginx starts receiving a response from a FastCGI backend (such as PHP-FPM) it will buffer the response in memory before delivering it to the client. Any response larger than the set buffer size is saved to a temporary file on disk. This process is also explained at the Nginx ngx_http_fastcgi_module page document page.

Since disk is slow and memory is fast the aim is to get as many FastCGI responses passing through memory only. On the flip side we don't want to set an excessively large buffer as they are created and sized on a per request basis (i.e. it's not shared memory).

The related Nginx options are:

• fastcgi_buffering appeared in Nginx 1.5.6 (1.6.0 stable) and can be used to turn buffering completely on/off. It's on by default.
• [fastcgi_buffer_size](http://nginx.org/en/
