"""DNS Made Easy DNS Authenticator"""
|
||||
"""
|
||||
The `~certbot_dns_dnsmadeeasy.dns_dnsmadeeasy` plugin automates the process of
|
||||
completing a ``dns-01`` challenge (`~acme.challenges.DNS01`) by creating, and
|
||||
subsequently removing, TXT records using the DNS Made Easy API.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Named Arguments
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
========================================= =====================================
|
||||
``--dns-dnsmadeeasy-credentials`` DNS Made Easy credentials_ INI file.
|
||||
(Required)
|
||||
``--dns-dnsmadeeasy-propagation-seconds`` The number of seconds to wait for DNS
|
||||
to propagate before asking the ACME
|
||||
server to verify the DNS record.
|
||||
(Default: 60)
|
||||
========================================= =====================================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Credentials
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
Use of this plugin requires a configuration file containing DNS Made Easy API
|
||||
credentials, obtained from your DNS Made Easy
|
||||
`account page <https://cp.dnsmadeeasy.com/account/info>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: ini
|
||||
:name: credentials.ini
|
||||
:caption: Example credentials file:
|
||||
|
||||
# DNS Made Easy API credentials used by Certbot
|
||||
dns_dnsmadeeasy_api_key = 1c1a3c91-4770-4ce7-96f4-54c0eb0e457a
|
||||
dns_dnsmadeeasy_secret_key = c9b5625f-9834-4ff8-baba-4ed5f32cae55
|
||||
|
||||
The path to this file can be provided interactively or using the
|
||||
``--dns-dnsmadeeasy-credentials`` command-line argument. Certbot records the path
|
||||
to this file for use during renewal, but does not store the file's contents.
|
||||
|
||||
.. caution::
|
||||
You should protect these API credentials as you would the password to your
|
||||
DNS Made Easy account. Users who can read this file can use these credentials
|
||||
to issue arbitrary API calls on your behalf. Users who can cause Certbot to
|
||||
run using these credentials can complete a ``dns-01`` challenge to acquire
|
||||
new certificates or revoke existing certificates for associated domains,
|
||||
even if those domains aren't being managed by this server.
|
||||
|
||||
Certbot will emit a warning if it detects that the credentials file can be
|
||||
accessed by other users on your system. The warning reads "Unsafe permissions
|
||||
on credentials configuration file", followed by the path to the credentials
|
||||
file. This warning will be emitted each time Certbot uses the credentials file,
|
||||
including for renewal, and cannot be silenced except by addressing the issue
|
||||
(e.g., by using a command like ``chmod 600`` to restrict access to the file).
