Using Let's Encrypt with a LAMP stack (Apache Web Server)

Quick intro: Let's Encrypt is a relatively new certificate authority which issues SSL certificates using an automated system that issues challenges to the specified server to ensure that the server controls the domain which is attempting the automated certification process. The certificates last only 90 days but can be renewed indefinitely.

Update and install the Let's Encrypt client

On Ubuntu 16.04:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install letsencrypt python-letsencrypt-apache

Superautomate Let's Encrypt Process

The following automates the process detailed here, in an earlier gist: https://gist.github.com/brunston/3c5b032f7a4c4882955f1c8985ca7fb1 You can enter the following commands in a bash shell. While I am not in the habit of providing nefarious bash scripts, it is always recommended to check the body of the bash script yourself before running on your server.

curl -o le-superauto.sh http://brunston.io/bash/le-superauto-ubuntu1604.sh
sudo ./le-superauto.sh <desired domain to issue cert to>
