certbot_deployer_vsphere

Certbot Deployer plugin for deploying web certificates for the vSphere web UI via Certbot "deploy hook".

Requires

• Python 3.9+
• vSphere 7 or 8

Installation

You can install with pip:

python3 -m pip install certbot_deployer_vsphere

Or install from source:

git clone <url>
pip install certbot_deployer_vsphere

Usage

Examples

Examples assume the tool is being run as a Certbot deploy hook, and the environment variable RENEWED_LINEAGE points to the live certificate directory just updated by Certbot.

To deploy the certificate bundle indicated by $RENEWED_LINEAGE to $VSPHEREHOST:

certbot-deployer-vsphere --user $VSPHEREUSER --password $VSPHEREPASSWORD --host $VSPHEREHOST

Config

It is recommended that you store the password in the Certbot Deployer configuration file (/etc/certbot_deployer/certbot_deployer.conf) with appropriate permissions rather than providing it as an argument and leaving it visible in the process list

{
  [...],
  "vsphere": {
    "user": "vsphereuser",
    "password": "vspherepassword",
    "host": "vspherehost",
  }
}
