Quick start docker container for hacking on letsencrypt

Lets Encrypt quickstart

git clone https://github.com/twstrike/letsencrypt letsencrypt-client
git clone https://github.com/juniorz/letsencrypt-quickstart

cd letsencrypt-quickstart
docker-compose run client

You can follow the instructions at https://letsencrypt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/contributing.html. You just need to activate the virtualenv before running any command:

source /home/letsencrypt/client/venv/bin/activate

You can dump things on ~/letsencrypt-quickstart and they will appear at your letsencrypt-quickstart/out directory.

There are some commands I use for testing:

• auth-and-install: Authenticates and install a new certificate on nginx
• certonly: Only authenticates a new certificate
• deploy-nginx: Deploy the currently generate certificate

They all use a hypothetical letsencrypt.you domain, and all commands to authenticate a certificate require a boulder server listening at localhost:4000 with access to letsencrypt.you pointing to 127.0.0.1.
