This projects helps to package acme.sh as a Debian archive (.deb). acme.sh actually has a pretty good installer (acme.sh --install) but if you want to use a (personal) APT repository (e.g. with using unattended-upgrades) this could help make it easier to install. Also this could be used to create a package that already holds your personal configuration files.
The resulting package will do the following:
- Install
acme.shand all library files (dnsapi/,deploy/andnotify) in/usr/lib/acme.sh - Install
account.confin/etc/acme.sh/account.conf - Set
/etc/acme.sh/certas the location for certificates (via$CERT_HOME) - Install the cronjob for renewing the certificates as
root - Set up an alias for root (
alias acme.sh=/usr/lib/acme.sh/acme.sh)
Change the $PROJECT and $BRANCH variables in debian/rules to make sure you're using the right package. E.g. if you've created your own branch/fork of acme.sh you can use that here. Also make sure to adapt account-etc.conf (to be installed in /etc/acme.sh/account.conf to your needs).
After you've adapted the package update the changelog with dch (which also determines the version number for this package)
Build the package using make debian in the main directory.
Install the resulting package with dpkg -i or add it to your personal APT repository
