Designed to flexibly integrate into your webserver setup to enable automatic verification. Unlike the official Let's Encrypt client, this doesn't modify your web server configuration. . You can perform verifications using port 80 or 443 (if you don't yet have a server running on one of them); via webroot; by configuring your webserver to proxy requests for /.well-known/acme-challenge/ to a special port (402) which acmetool can listen on. . acmetool is intended to be "magic-free". All of acmetool's state is stored in a simple, comprehensible directory of flat files. . acmetool is intended to work like "make". The state directory expresses target domain names, and whenever acmetool is invoked, it ensures that valid certificates are available to meet those names. Certificates which will expire soon are renewed. acmetool is thus idempotent and minimises the use of state.
