Certbot是一个用户友好的自动客户端，它为你的web服务器获取和部署SSL/TLS证书，它是一个用来从let's Encrypt获取证书，并且在你的服务器上自动启用HTTPS的工具，总之，它充当官方"let's Encrypt客户端"或"let's Encrypt python client."，它利用自动证书管理环境(ACME )自动部署由大多数浏览器信任的免费证书，因此，它适用于支持ACME协议的CA 。
在本文中，我将解释如何在ubuntu 18 04服务器上使用Certbot为Apache和Nginx获取和安装免费的Let's encrypt SSL证书。
预先要求
有root权限的Ubuntu Bionic (18.04 )服务器，可根据需求安装所需软件包，注册域名，并且有适当的DNS记录，在本文中，我将使用，安装certbot
最初，要获取Letsencrypt SSL证书，我们需要安装Certbot软件，尽管最近在Ubuntu上提供了Certbot，但是，这些软件包往往已经过时了。你可以使用以下命令安装Certbot ：
#add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot#apt update#apt install certbot
使用以下命令确认已安装的Certbot版本：
# certbot --versioncertbot 0.23.0
另外，我们可以使用命令"certbot plugins"来了解服务器上安装的可用Certbot插件。
# certbot pluginsSaving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log* standaloneDescription: Spin up a temporary webserverInterfaces: IAuthenticator, IPluginEntry point: standalone = certbot.plugins.standalone:Authenticator* webrootDescription: Place files in webroot directoryInterfaces: IAuthenticator, IPluginEntry point: webroot = certbot.plugins.webroot:Authenticator-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
默认情况下，软件包中只包含独立和webroot插件，按照我们的目的，我们可以一个一个地启用所有需要的插件。
在Apache上设置let's Encrypt SSL证书
Certbot提供了一个Apache插件，使用该工具可以更轻松地颁发SSL证书，运行下面这个命令来安装这个插件：
#apt install python-certbot-apache
假设我们的域名有适当的虚拟主机，我们可以运行这个命令来为我们的域.安装SSL。

上述交互式过程将指导你为域名签署/安装证书。在虚拟主机中使用此命令执行自动下载，安装和配置你的域名。现在可以使用HTTPS访问域名，并确认它是否工作，验证SSL检查器中的SSL状态。
如果配置了多个虚拟主机/域，则可以使用以下命令为它们安装SSL证书。
#certbot --apache
此外，如果不希望Certbot使用新的SSL证书自动安装/配置域虚拟主机，可以使用以下命令来生成SSL证书，你可以稍后手动配置它。
#certbot --apache certonly
在Nginx上设置let's Encrypt SSL证书
对于运行nginx的服务器，我们可以使用Certbot nginx plugin自动获取，并且安装SSL证书，你可以通过下面的命令来安装这个插件：
#apt install python-certbot-nginx
假设我们的域名有虚拟主机，运行这个命令来为.安装SSL，
# certbot --nginx -d -d Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.logPlugins selected: Authenticator nginx, Installer nginxEnter email address (used for urgent renewal and security notices) (Enter 'c' tocancel): [email protected]-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please read the Terms of Service at/documents/LE-SA-v1.2-November-15-.pdf.

你可以用你的域替换我的域，并运行相同的命令来生成你的SSL证书。
如果你配置了多个虚拟主机/域名，那么你可以使用下面的命令为所有的虚拟主机安装SSL证书。
#certbot --nginx
Certbot将要求你选择新证书中包含的域。
#certbot --nginx certonly
