dnsExit certbot hook (bash script)

This a hook for the Let's Encrypt ACME client dehydrated (formerly letsencrypt.sh), that enables using DNS records on dnsexit.com to respond to dns-01 challenges. It requires to have dig installed (sudo apt-get install dnsutils)

Hook Files

  • base.sh (this is an utility file that is used by authorization.sh and cleanup.sh scripts)
  • authorization.sh (this script add the dns text record to dnsexit and check that it was succesfully added)
  • cleanup.sh (this script delete the created dns txt record)
  • config.sh (this script is for setting the dnsExit.com access information)
    • dnsExitToken: Token provided by dns exit
    • dnsExitDomainList: List of possible base domains that you want to process

How to use it

  • Update the config.sh with your dnsexit.com credentials
  • Call the certbot command using the required parameters (renew example)
    • certbot renew --force-renew --break-my-certs --staging --agree-tos --email [email protected] --manual --preferred-challenges dns --manual-auth-hook ./authenticator.sh --manual-cleanup-hook ./cleanup.sh

How to test it

  • There are two test script that will ask for your DNSExit credentials that will call the main scripts:
    • testAuthenticator.sh
    • testCleanup.sh

I hope this script is useful for the community, if you have any comments or suggestions contact me
