A keypair and certificate storage strategy for Greenlock v2.7+ (and v3).
The (much simpler) successor to le-store-certbot.
Works with all ACME (Let's Encrypt) SSL certificate sytles:
Usage
Global config:
greenlock.manager.defaults({
store: {
module: "greenlock-store-fs",
basePath: "~/.config/greenlock"
}
});
Per-site config:
greenlock.add({
subject: "example.com",
altnames: ["example.com", "www.example.com"],
store: {
module: "greenlock-store-fs",
basePath: "~/.config/greenlock"
}
});
File System
The default file system layout mirrors that of certbot (python Let's Encrypt implementation) and
the prior le-store-certbot in order to make transitioning effortless.
The default structure looks like this:
.config
└── greenlock
├── accounts
│ └── acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org
│ └── directory
│ └── sites@example.com.json
├── staging
│ └── (same as live)
└── live
├── example.com
│ ├── bundle.pem
│ ├── cert.pem
│ ├── chain.pem
│ ├── fullchain.pem
│ └── privkey.pem
└── www.example.com
├── bundle.pem
├── cert.pem
├── chain.pem
├── fullchain.pem
└── privkey.pem
