Let's Encrypt Laravel
=====================

[](#lets-encrypt-laravel)

A Laravel package for easily generating and renewing SSL certificates using Let's Encrypt. This package is especially useful if you have a Laravel application that manages the SSL certificates of many domains. This package is **not** recommended if you just need to generate a single SSL certificate for your application.

This package is essentially a Laravel-friendly wrapper around [Acme PHP](https://github.com/acmephp/acmephp).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require ko7ta/laravel-lets-encrypt
```

Publish the configuration file and the migration:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\LetsEncryptServiceProvider" --tag="lets-encrypt"
```

Run the migration:

```
php artisan migrate
```

**Note:**

This package assumes you have created a symbolic link to your storage directory using:

```
php artisan storage:link
```

If you do not want to do this, you have to configure a custom path generator, see the Configuration section below.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Creating a new SSL certificate for a specific domain is easy:

```
// Puts several jobs on the queue to handle the communication with the lets-encrypt server
[$certificate, $pendingDispatch] = \Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Facades\LetsEncrypt::create('mydomain.com');

// You could, for example, chain some jobs to enable a new virtual host
// in Apache and send a notification once the website is available
[$certificate, $pendingDispatch] = \Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Facades\LetsEncrypt::create('mydomain.com', [
    new CreateNewApacheVirtualHost('mydomain.com'),
    new ReloadApache(),
    new NotifyUserOfNewCertificate(request()->user()),
]);

// You can also do it synchronously:
\Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Facades\LetsEncrypt::createNow('mydomain.com');
```

You could also achieve the same by using an artisan command:

```
php artisan lets-encrypt:create -d mydomain.com
```

Certificates are stored in the database. You can query them like so:

```
// All certificates
\Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Models\LetsEncryptCertificate::all();
// All expired certificates
\Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Models\LetsEncryptCertificate::query()->expired()->get();
// All currently valid certificates
\Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Models\LetsEncryptCertificate::query()->valid()->get();
// All certificates that should be renewed (because they're more than 60 days old)
\Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Models\LetsEncryptCertificate::query()->requiresRenewal()->get();

// Find certificate by domain
$certificate = LetsEncryptCertificate::where('domain', 'mydomain.com')->first();
// If you no longer need it, you can soft delete
$certificate->delete();
// Or use a hard delete
$certificate->forceDelete();
```

Certificates are valid for 90 days. Before those 90 days are over, you will want to renew them. To do so, you could add the following to your `App\Console\Kernel`:

```
protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
    $schedule->job(new \Daanra\LaravelLetsEncrypt\Jobs\RenewExpiringCertificates)->daily();
}
```

This will automatically renew every certificate that is older than 60 days, ensuring that they never expire.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

By default this package will use Let's Encrypt's staging server to issue certificates. You should set:

```
LETS_ENCRYPT_API_URL=https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
```

in the `.env` file of your production server.

By default, this package will attempt to validate a certificate using [a HTTP-01 challenge](https://letsencrypt.org/docs/challenge-types/). For this reason, a file will be temporarily stored in your application's storage directory under the path `app/public/.well-known/acme-challenge/`. You can customise this behavior by setting a custom `PathGenerator` class in your config under `path_generator`. Note that Let's Encrypt expects the following path:

```
/.well-known/acme-challenge/
```

to return the contents of the file located at `$pathGenerator->getPath($token)`.
