How to use Letsencrypt certificate & private key with Jetty

letsencrypt-jetty.sh

# input: fullchain.pem and privkey.pem as generated by the "letsencrypt-auto" 
sudo letsencrypt certonly --standalone

sudo su

cd /etc/letsencrypt/live/{domain name}

# convert certificate chain + private key to the PKCS#12 file format
openssl pkcs12 -export -out keystore.pkcs12 -in fullchain.pem -inkey privkey.pem

# convert PKCS#12 file into Java keystore format
keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore keystore.pkcs12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -destkeystore keystore.jks

# don't need the PKCS#12 file anymore
rm keystore.pkcs12

# Now use "keystore.jks" as keystore in jetty with the keystore password you specfied when you ran
# the "keytool" command


#using the kse to import the cert.pem to the keystore
#rename the keystore.jks:    mv keystore.jks whisper.store
