Docker linuxserver/letsencrypt

docker create \
  --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
  --name=letsencrypt \
  -v /srv/letsencrypt:/config \
  -e PGID=1000 -e PUID=1000  \
  -e EMAIL=ABCD@ABCD.com \

Below are the instructions for updating containers:

Via Docker Run/Create

• Update the image: docker pull linuxserver/letsencrypt
• Stop the running container: docker stop letsencrypt
• Delete the container: docker rm letsencrypt
• Recreate a new container with the same docker create parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your /config folder and settings will be preserved)
• Start the new container: docker start letsencrypt
• You can also remove the old dangling images: docker image prune

Via Taisun auto-updater (especially useful if you don't remember the original parameters)

• Pull the latest image at its tag and replace it with the same env variables in one shot:

  docker run --rm \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock taisun/updater \
  --oneshot letsencrypt
  

• You can also remove the old dangling images: docker image prune
