schoeffm / dehydrated-docker

Encapsulates the dehydrated cli tool within a docker container

Useful Commands

This docker-image encapsulates the dehydrated cli tool which can be used to request letsencrypt certificates. Just pull the image using:

docker pull schoeffm/dehydrated

After importing the image just execute the followin':

docker run --rm -ti schoeffm/dehydrated

Next, there is a more realistic command which uses a local config-file (which has to contains a WELLKNOWN-path that is under the control of your web-server). The resulting certificate is written to your local directory (which is also mounted as volume within the container).

docker run --rm -ti \                                
    -v $(pwd):/cfg \                                 # mounts the current dir in the container
    --volumes-from <webContainer> \                  # also mount all dirs from the webserver
    schoeffm/dehydrated \ 
    -c -f /cfg/config -d <yourDomain> -o /cfg        # pass in all necessary arguments
