## Dockerfile
Use to set your own defaults or overwrite in the command
```Dockerfile
FROM willfarrell/letsencrypt:latest

COPY config /etc/dehydrated/config
```

## ENV
```
# defaults to `staging`, use `production` when ready.
LE_ENV=staging
# Only required if you plan to use dns-01 challenges (use for private services)
# CloudFlare example
PROVIDER=cloudflare
LEXICON_CLOUDFLARE_USERNAME=
LEXICON_CLOUDFLARE_TOKEN=

# Route 53 example
PROVIDER=route53
LEXICON_ROUTE53_ACCESS_KEY=
LEXICON_ROUTE53_ACCESS_SECRET=
```

## Testing
```bash
docker build -t letsencrypt .

# private
docker run \
    --env-file letsencrypt.env \
    letsencrypt \
    dehydrated \
        --cron --domain letsencrypt.willfarrell.ca \
        --hook dehydrated-dns \
        --challenge dns-01 \
        --force

# public
docker run -d \
    --env-file letsencrypt.env \
    letsencrypt \
    dehydrated \
        --cron --domain letsencrypt.willfarrell.ca \
        --challenge http-01 \
        --force

# reload nginx to see changes                                                                         
```

## Deploy
Note the use of `--hook dehydrated-dns`, [dehydrated-dns](https://github.com/AnalogJ/lexicon/blob/master/examples/dehydrated.default.sh) is a script wrapper to call lexicon from dehydrated.
```bash
# private
docker run \
    --volumes-from docker_nginx_1 \
    --env-file letsencrypt.env \
    willfarrell/letsencrypt \
    dehydrated \
        --cron --domain letsencrypt.willfarrell.ca \
        --out /etc/ssl \
        --hook dehydrated-dns \
        --challenge dns-01

# public
docker run -d \
    --volumes-from docker_nginx_1 \
    --env-file letsencrypt.env \
    willfarrell/letsencrypt \
    dehydrated \
        --cron --domain letsencrypt.willfarrell.ca \
        --out /etc/ssl \
        --challenge http-01
```
