acme-redirect 0.7.0

Tiny http daemon that answers acme challenges and redirects everything else to https
Documentation
# acme-redirect(1)

A tiny http daemon that answers acme challenges and redirects everything else
to https.

A minimal configuration looks like this:
```toml
# cat /etc/acme-redirect.d/example.com.conf
[cert]
name = "example.com"
dns_names = [
    "example.com",
    "www.example.com",
]
exec = [
    "systemctl reload nginx",
]
```

You don't need to edit anything else. Start the acme-redirect daemon:
```bash
systemctl enable --now acme-redirect
```

Ensure the service is running correctly and the redirect works as expected.
Ensure your A and AAAA records point to the right server and check everything
is working correctly by fetching a random proof from our local daemon.
```bash
acme-redirect check
```

If `OK` is displayed for every name you can request a real certificates:
```bash
acme-redirect renew
```

If this succeeded you should setup automatic renew:
```bash
systemctl enable --now acme-redirect-renew.timer
```

The certificate is located here:
```
/var/lib/acme-redirect/live/example.com/fullchain
/var/lib/acme-redirect/live/example.com/privkey
```

Example configuration looks like this:

## nginx
```nginx
server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    listen [::]:443 ssl http2;

    ssl_certificate /var/lib/acme-redirect/live/example.com/fullchain;
    ssl_certificate_key /var/lib/acme-redirect/live/example.com/privkey;
    ssl_session_timeout 1d;
    ssl_session_cache shared:MozSSL:10m;  # about 40000 sessions
    ssl_session_tickets off;

    ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
    ssl_ciphers ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384;
    ssl_prefer_server_ciphers off;

    ssl_stapling on;
    ssl_stapling_verify on;
    ssl_trusted_certificate /var/lib/acme-redirect/live/example.com/chain;
    resolver 127.0.0.1;

    # ...
}
```

# Status

I'm using this in production since summer 2020 (northern hemisphere, around May).

# Development

```bash
mkdir -vp tmp/challs
export ACME_CONFIG="$PWD/contrib/confs/acme-redirect.conf"
export ACME_CONFIG_DIR="$PWD/contrib/confs/certs.d/"
export ACME_CHALL_DIR="$PWD/tmp/"
export ACME_DATA_DIR="$PWD/tmp/"

cargo run -- status
cargo run -- daemon -B '[::]:8080' -v
```

# boxxy

acme-redirect uses setuid and chroot to drop privileges before accepting
requests. This can be inspected with [boxxy][1].

```bash
mkdir -vp tmp/web
sudo chown root. tmp/web
cargo build --examples
(cd tmp/web && sudo ../../target/debug/examples/boxxy)
```
