Prerequisites : the letsencrypt CLI tool

This method allows your to generate and renew your Lets Encrypt certificates with 1 command. This is easily automatable to renew each 60 days, as advised.

You need nginx to answer on port 80 on all the domains you want a certificate for. Then you need to serve the challenge used by letsencrypt on /.well-known/acme-challenge. Then we invoke the letsencrypt command, telling the tool to write the challenge files in the directory we used as a root in the nginx configuration.

I redirect all HTTP requests on HTTPS, so my nginx config looks like :

server {

Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

	Useful tips:

	import funky
	print(funky)
	print(funky.__file__)
	This prints the path to the file where the module was found. Very useful when a module behaves in an strange way.

	# Shell to use with Make
	SHELL := /bin/bash

	# Set important Paths
	PROJECT := # Set to your project name
	LOCALPATH := $(CURDIR)/$(PROJECT)
	PYTHONPATH := $(LOCALPATH)/
	PYTHON_BIN := $(VIRTUAL_ENV)/bin

	# Export targets not associated with files

	SHELL = /bin/bash
	WORKDIR = /vagrant
