Creating a Client

// Create a new ACME protocol client
var client = new ACME.Client({
  // ACME service URL
  baseUrl: 'https://acme-staging.api.letsencrypt.org',
  // PEM encoded public key (required)
  publicKey: fs.readFileSync( 'public-key.pem', 'utf8' ),
  // PEM encoded private key (required)
  privateKey: fs.readFileSync( 'private-key.pem', 'utf8' ),
})

// Configure the client with the ACME server's directory
// NOTE: Optional, will be done on API if unconfigured
client.configure( function( error, directory ) {
  directory == {
    'new-authz': 'https://acme-staging.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/new-authz',
    'new-cert': 'https://acme-staging.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/new-cert',
    'new-reg': 'https://acme-staging.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/new-reg',
    'revoke-cert': 'https://acme-staging.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/revoke-cert'
  }
})

Registering an Account

// Define your contact details
var contact = [ 'mailto:root@localhost' ]

// Register a new account for defined contact and
// keys the client was initialized with
client.register( contact, function( error, registration ) {
  client.registrationUrl = registration == {
    resource: 'new-reg',
    contact: [ 'mailto:[e-mail]' ],
    id: 246840,

Applying for Authorization

    value: 'example.com'
  },
}

// Request a new authorization

      value: 'example.com'
    },
