Automatic SSL certs from Let's Encrypt for your Phoenix applications. This is based on the ZeroSSL library which is used for the ACME handshake. Plugging into the sni_fun
and the name is inspired by similar functionality of the golang certmagic library.
This is used in the real world for example on https://tcpbin.net.
For Cowboy add to your prod.exs:
config <your_app>, <your_endpoint>,
https: [port: 443, sni_fun: &CertMagex.sni_fun/1],
# ATTENTION: Ensure you comment http: out and port 80 is free!
...
For Bandit add to your prod.exs:
config <your_app>, <your_endpoint>,
https: [port: 443, thousand_island_options: [transport_options: [sni_fun: &CertMagex.sni_fun/1]]],
# ATTENTION: Ensure you comment http: out and port 80 is free!
...
And add this to your deps:
def deps do
[
{:certmagex, "~> 1.0"}
]
end
You're done!
The following configuration values are optional and can be set in your config.exs
file.
user_email
: The email to use for the ACME handshake. Let's encrypt might send informational emails to this address.provider
: The provider to use for the ACME handshake. Can be:letsencrypt
or:zerossl
. Defaults to:letsencrypt
.account_key
: The account key to use for the ACME handshake. Required only for:zerossl
provider.addr
: The address to bind to for the ACME handshake. Defaults to0.0.0.0
on IPv4 and::
on IPv6.storage_module
: The module to use for storage. Defaults toCertMagex.Storage.Acmev2Adapter
. Changing the module allows storing retrieved certificates in a different storage location.renewal_threshold
: The threshold for certificate renewal. Defaults to renewing certificates if they have86_400
seconds (1 day) of validity left.
Example config.exs
config :certmagex,
provider: :zerossl,
account_key: System.get_env("ZEROSSL_ACCOUNT_KEY"),
addr: "0.0.0.0",
user_email: "your@email.com",
storage_module: CertMagex.Storage.Acmev2Adapter
Generated certificates are by default stored in $HOME/.local/share/certmagex
but the XDG_DATA_HOME variable is respected.
This wouldn't be possible without the Acmev2 module from zerossl https://hex.pm/packages/zerossl
