certbot-dns-azure-modern
Maintained fork of terricain/certbot-dns-azure.
The upstream package
certbot-dns-azure(last release 2.6.1, December 2024) pinscertbot<4.0. Installing it next to a current certbot makes pip downgrade certbot and acme to 3.3.0, which no longer imports against pyOpenSSL >= 26 (AttributeError: module 'OpenSSL.crypto' has no attribute 'X509Extension'). This is what breaks Azure DNS certificates in Nginx Proxy Manager 2.15+ (NginxProxyManager#5606). Upstream has not responded to fixes since early 2025 (#65), hence this fork.The Python module (
certbot_dns_azure), the plugin name (dns-azure), all CLI flags and the config file format are unchanged. Only the distribution name on PyPI differs. Both packages install the same module, so replace rather than stack them:pip uninstall certbot-dns-azure && pip install -U certbot certbot-dns-azure-modern. Installing the fork on top of an existing 2.6.1 does not undo the certbot downgrade.
Azure DNS authenticator plugin for Certbot. It follows the
conventions of the certbot-dns-* plugins in the
Certbot repository; Certbot itself does not take
third-party plugins, so it is distributed separately.
Installation
Via Pip
pip3 install certbot certbot-dns-azure-modern
Nginx Proxy Manager
Override the azure entry in /app/certbot/dns-plugins.json (bind-mount a patched copy)
and recreate the container, so the plugin is installed into a fresh certbot venv:
"azure": {
"dependencies": "",
"package_name": "certbot-dns-azure-modern",
"version": "~=2.8.0"
}
Verify inside the container:
$ . /opt/certbot/bin/activate && certbot --version && certbot plugins --text | grep dns-azure
Via Snap
The snap in the Snap Store is published by the upstream author and still ships 2.6.1. This fork does not publish a snap.
Verification
Verify:
$ certbot plugins --text
