  [{:acme, "~> 0.5.1"}]
end

How to connect to an Acme server

All client request are called with a connection. I chose to do it this way (over something like hard coded config) so you have the flexability to run multiple connections to many Acme servers at the same time or fetch certificates for different accounts.

To connect to an Acme server, you want use the &Acme.Client.start_link/1 function that takes these options:

• server_url - The Acme server url
• private_key - A private_key either in PEM format or as a JWK map, this is required unless you use the private_key_file option
• private_key_file - Instead of a private key map/pem value, you can also pass a private key file path

{:ok, conn} = Acme.Client.start_link([
  server: "https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org",
  private_key_file: "path/to/key.pem"
])

Examples

Staring a connection

Acme.Client.start_link(server: ..., private_key: ...)
#=> {:ok, conn}

We are going to reuse this connection for all examples below

Register an account

Acme.register("mailto:acme@example.com") |> Acme.request(conn)
#=> {:ok, %Registration{...}}
# Agree to terms
Acme.agree_terms(registration) |> Acme.request(conn)

Get new authorization for domain

Acme.authorize("yourdomain.com") |> Acme.request(conn)
#=> {:ok, %Authorization{
  status: "pending",
  challenges: [
    %Acme.Challenge{
      type: "http-01",
      token "..."
    }
  ]
}}

Respond to a challenge

challenge = %Acme.Challenge{type: "http-01", token: ...}
Acme.respond_challenge(challenge) |> Acme.request(conn)
#=> {:ok, %Challenge{status: "pending", ...}}

Request a certificate

Generate a CSR, we provide OpenSSL helpers to help you with this in Acme.OpenSSL

# Certificate subject informations (only common_name is required)
subject = %{
  common_name: "example.acme.com",
  organization_name: "Acme INC.",
  organizational_unit: "HR",
  locality_name: "Philadelphia",
  state_or_province: "Pennsylvania",
  country_name: "US"
}

# Generate a CSR in DER format
{:ok, csr} = Acme.OpenSSL.generate_csr("/path/to/your/private_key.pem", subject)

# Request a certificate and get back its URL
Acme.new_certificate(csr) |> Acme.request(conn)
#=> {:ok, "https://example.com/acme/cert/asdf"}

# Fetch the certificate using the URL
Acme.get_certificate("https://example.com/acme/cert/asdf")
|> Acme.request(conn)
#=> {:ok, <<DER-encoded certificate>>}

Revoke a certificate

You can revoke a certificate by passing the certificate in DER format and specify a reason code. You can see all possible reason codes at: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5280#section-5.3.1

Acme.revoke_certificate(<<DER-encoded certificate>>, 0)
#=> :ok
