A Rancher service that obtains free SSL/TLS certificates from the Let's Encrypt CA, adds them to Rancher's certificate store and manages renewal and propagation of updated certificates to load balancers.

This is a forked version of vxcontrol/rancher-letsencrypt

I have updated the cloudflare provider to support Cloudflare's new API Token instead of using global API Key (will be removed later). This will improve account security when generating single or wild certificates for certain domain when you managing multiple domains in one account.

Some provider were removed because of raised errors when running builds. These will be re-added back later.

• The following providers were removed in this forked version:
  • DNSSimple
  • Azure DNS
• Replaced xenolf/lego go library with go-acme/lego v3, using version v3.1.0
• Migrated to go modules
• Release version using 2.x from now on, starting from 2.0.0-beta.x as a preview release
• Built with alpine 3.12 as base environment

• Upgrade go version to 1.14
• Upgrade go-acme/lego to v4.x
• Add support for various DNS providers including previously removed providers
• Remove Cloudflare's global API key usage
• Fully use environment variables used by lego instead of defining our own This is entirely because adding support for various provider is tiresome when I have to implement each of its own provider options

• Rancher Server >= v1.5.0

• If using a DNS-based challenge, existing account with one of the supported DNS providers:

  • Aurora DNS
  • AWS Route 53
  • CloudFlare
  • DigitalOcean
  • Dyn
  • Gandi
  • NS1
  • Ovh
  • Vultr

• If using the HTTP challenge, a reverse proxy that routes example.com/.well-known/acme-challenge to rancher-letsencrypt.

This application is distributed via the Rancher Community Catalog.

Enable the Community Catalog under Admin => Settings in the Rancher UI. Then locate the Let's Encrypt template in the Catalog section of the UI and follow the instructions.

By default the created SSL certificate is stored in Rancher's certificate store for usage in Rancher load balancers.

You can specify a volume name to store account data, certificate and private key in a (host scoped) named Docker volume. To share the certificates with other services you may specify a persistent storage driver (e.g. rancher-nfs).

See the README in the Rancher catalog for more information.

You can either set environment variables or use Rancher Secrets for provider configuration.

Possible options are:

Aurora

• AURORA_USER_ID - /run/secrets/aurora_user_id
• AURORA_KEY - /run/secrets/aurora_key
• AURORA_ENDPOINT - /run/secrets/aurora_endpoint

CloudFlare

• CF_API_EMAIL - /run/secrets/cf_api_email
• CF_API_KEY - /run/secrets/cf_api_key
• CF_DNS_API_TOKEN - /run/secrets/cf_dns_api_token
• CF_ZONE_API_TOKEN - /run/secrets/cf_zone_api_token

DigitalOcean

• DO_ACCESS_TOKEN - /run/secrets/do_access_token

AWS

• AWS_ACCESS_KEY - /run/secrets/aws_access_key
• AWS_SECRET_KEY - /run/secrets/aws_secret_key

DYN

• DYN_CUSTOMER_NAME - /run/secrets/dyn_customer_name
• DYN_USER_NAME - /run/secrets/dyn_user_name
• DYN_PASSWORD - /run/secrets/dyn_password

VULTR

• VULTR_API_KEY - /run/secrets/vultr_api_key

OVH

• OVH_ENDPOINT - /run/secrets/ovh_application_key
• OVH_APPLICATION_KEY - /run/secrets/ovh_application_key
• OVH_APPLICATION_SECRET - /run/secrets/ovh_application_secret
• OVH_CONSUMER_KEY - /run/secrets/ovh_consumer_key

GANDI

• GANDI_API_KEY - /run/secrets/gandi_api_key

NS1

• NS1_API_KEY - /run/secrets/ns1_api_key

Note: If you have both a private and public zone in Route53 for the domain, you need to run the service configured with public DNS resolvers (this is now the default).

The following IAM policy describes the minimum permissions required when using AWS Route 53 for domain authorization.
Replace <HOSTED_ZONE_ID> with the ID of the hosted zone that encloses the domain(s) for which you are going to obtain certificates. You may use a wildcard (*) in place of the ID to make this policy work with all of the hosted zones associated with an AWS account.

    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "route53:GetChange",
                "route53:ListHostedZonesByName"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "*"
            ]
        },
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "route53:ChangeResourceRecordSets"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:route53:::hostedzone/<HOSTED_ZONE_ID>"
            ]
        }
    ]
}

First create your credentials on https://eu.api.ovh.com/createToken/ by filling out the form like this:

• Account ID: Your OVH account ID
• Password: Your password
• Script name: letsencrypt
• Script description: Letsencrypt for Rancher
• Validity: Unlimited
• Rights:
  • GET /domain/zone/*
  • POST /domain/zone/*
  • DELETE /domain/zone/*

Then deploy this service using the generated key, application secret and consumer key.

If you prefer not to use a DNS-based challenge or your provider is not supported, you can use the HTTP challenge. Simply choose HTTP from the list of providers. Then make sure that HTTP requests to domain.com/.well-known/acme-challenge are forwarded to port 80 of the rancher-letsencrypt service, e.g. by configuring a Rancher load balancer accordingly. If you are using another reverse proxy (e.g. Nginx) you need to make sure it passed the original host header through to the backend.
