Hello, I wan’t to ask if anyone knows of a good alternative for certbot for acquiring ssl certificates for nginx.
Certbot isn’t good anymore for me since I started using crowdsec with nginx bouncer that uses lua block’s inside nginx config that cerbot can’t parse, making it not work anymore.
I use nginx because it’s the one I know the best and for my use case work’s the best. ( Hosting both program’s directly on metal and docker container’s )
@crony AFAIK https://github.com/go-acme/lego is quite good.
NixOS uses this, works well for me.
if you are open to learn something new: Caddy webserver has a dead simple config, fetches tls certs by default for you and works with crowdsec too
Caddy is fantastic, incredibly easy to configure and just works out of the box beautifully.
Update: I have moved to caddy, planned a switch either way and this just pushed me to do it.
You could not use the dns challenge?
Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I’ve seen in this thread:
Fewer Letters More Letters CA (SSL) Certificate Authority DNS Domain Name Service/System HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol, the Web SSL Secure Sockets Layer, for transparent encryption nginx Popular HTTP server
3 acronyms in this thread; the most compressed thread commented on today has 14 acronyms.

What CA are you getting your certificates from?
If Let’s Encrypt, have you checked their alternative methods to certbot?
Yea I’m using let’s encrypt. Juet wanted to hear opinions from people who are probably more experienced than me.
I’d say any project that’s decently maintained and satisfies your use case is probably good enough. I found this that from the sound of it fits your use case: https://github.com/fffonion/lua-resty-acme
You don’t need it to parse your config. Just set it to manual mode with a cron job. You can manually copy the certs with a short script.
Hi already tried that, worked for one domain and then stopped working for every other domain.
Oh, I just assuming it would be one or 2 domains, my bad.
