CertLord

CertLord

TLS certificate lifecycle automation.

Version: 1.0.1 — stable. See the release notes.

CertLord automates TLS certificate issuance, renewal and deployment. It supports ACME through Certbot and importing existing PEM certificates, stores certificates in Vault and deploys them through Auton. Optional destination TLS verification checks the certificate actually served before acknowledgement. StatusCake/Updown adapters are optional; expiry observations are exposed for an external supervision system. It uses DWho, HTTPdis and Sonicprobe.

Redis stores temporary ACME HTTP-01 challenge responses and tracks pending work, retries and deployment leases. Vault stores certificate material. Use the Docker Compose installation to run the services together, or provision them separately for the Debian installation.

Docker installation

Use the Compose guide for initialization, persistent Vault storage, API access and deployment configuration. The application image is decryptus/certlord:1.0.1.

Command line and terminal interface

Use ordinary commands in scripts, or explicitly open the read-only terminal browser with certlord tui. View the illustrated guide.
