软件包摘要

Tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt and autoenable HTTPS

命令和别名

  • certbot

历史

项目历史与用法

Certbot is EFF's ACME client for obtaining and renewing HTTPS certificates, most commonly from Let's Encrypt, and optionally configuring web servers such as Apache and nginx.

项目历史

The repository was created in 2014 during the early Let's Encrypt client era. In 2016, EFF announced the client would move under the Certbot name to distinguish the client from the Let's Encrypt certificate authority and ISRG organization.

采用历史

Certbot rode the same adoption wave as Let's Encrypt: EFF's 2016 announcement noted Let's Encrypt had issued its three millionth certificate, and EFF later reported Certbot installed on more than 4 million web servers maintaining certificates for more than 31 million websites.

使用方式

Certbot is intended to run on the server that hosts the site. It obtains certificates, saves them under /etc/letsencrypt/live, renews them on a schedule, and can use plugins for Apache, nginx, webroot, standalone, manual, and DNS-based validation.

为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Certbot is one of the canonical examples of a security CLI becoming distribution infrastructure: it appears in many package managers, replaced the older letsencrypt command name in user documentation, deprecated certbot-auto, and standardized operational files under /etc/letsencrypt.

时间线

  • 2014: Public certbot/certbot repository created.
