Free automatic SSL certs using letsencrypt

I'm trying to play with this now, but not sure how it's affected by SocketCluster
https://www.npmjs.com/package/letsencrypt
https://github.com/Daplie/letsencrypt-express
Would be a nice addition!
That looks nice, what you think @mattkrick ? Looking at worker.js I can see how we could take advantage of this, but I'm not master of SocketCluster so I'm not 100% about this.
Oh I'm stoked someone brought this up! Yeah let's start with encrypting the
http server and then can do a separate PR for websockets, I can't remember
all the details about wss

Ok, I'll tackle this as soon as I finish with the webpack update... have you had a chance to look at the proposed npm script changes yet?
awesome, yep, checked it out & it looks really good, but I got sidetracked with a little redux side project
It's all good, gotta do what you gotta do Matt :)
I think this is outta scope of the project since it's more devops.
BUT, I just did this using dokku on digital ocean & i'm blown away by how easy it is.
- Install the plugin: https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt
- Run the plugin
- make a renewal cron job: https://blog.semicolonsoftware.de/running-dokku-letsencrypt-auto-renewal-as-a-cronjob/
It occurs at the reverse proxy layer (nginx), not the application layer. That means there's no changes necessary for your app.
I still haven't done it for wss, will cross that bridge in the next few days.
