Let's Encrypt

Automatic HTTPS {: .subtitle }

You can configure Traefik to use an ACME provider (like Let's Encrypt) for automatic certificate generation.

!!! warning "Let's Encrypt and Rate Limiting" Note that Let's Encrypt API has rate limiting.

Configuration Examples

??? example "Enabling ACME"

```toml tab="File (TOML)"
[entryPoints]
  [entryPoints.web]
    address = ":80"

  [entryPoints.web-secure]
    address = ":443"

[certificatesResolvers.sample.acme]
  email = "your-email@your-domain.org"
  storage = "acme.json"
  [acme.httpChallenge]
    # used during the challenge
    entryPoint = "web"
```

```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
entryPoints:
  web:
    address: ":80"

  web-secure:
    address: ":443"

certificatesResolvers:
  sample:
    acme:
      email: your-email@your-domain.org
      storage: acme.json
      httpChallenge:
        # used during the challenge
        entryPoint: web
```

```bash tab="CLI"
--entryPoints.web.address=":80"
--entryPoints.websecure.address=":443"
# ...
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.email="your-email@your-domain.org"
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.storage="acme.json"
# used during the challenge
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.httpChallenge.entryPoint=web
```

??? note "Configuration Reference"

There are many available options for ACME.
For a quick glance at what's possible, browse the configuration reference:

```toml tab="File (TOML)"
--8<-- "content/https/ref-acme.toml"
```

```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
--8<-- "content/https/ref-acme.yaml"
```

```bash tab="CLI"
--8<-- "content/https/ref-acme.txt"
```

Automatic Renewals

Traefik automatically tracks the expiry date of ACME certificates it generates.

If there are less than 30 days remaining before the certificate expires, Traefik will attempt to renew it automatically.

!!! note Certificates that are no longer used may still be renewed, as Traefik does not currently check if the certificate is being used before renewing.

The Different ACME Challenges

tlsChallenge

Use the TLS-ALPN-01 challenge to generate and renew ACME certificates by provisioning a TLS certificate.

As described on the Let's Encrypt community forum, when using the TLS-ALPN-01 challenge, Traefik must be reachable by Let's Encrypt through port 443.

??? example "Configuring the tlsChallenge"

```toml tab="File (TOML)"
[certificatesResolvers.sample.acme]
  # ...
  [certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.tlsChallenge]
```

```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
certificatesResolvers:
  sample:
    acme:
      # ...
      tlsChallenge: {}
```

```bash tab="CLI"
# ...
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.tlsChallenge=true
```

httpChallenge

Use the HTTP-01 challenge to generate and renew ACME certificates by provisioning an HTTP resource under a well-known URI.

As described on the Let's Encrypt community forum, when using the HTTP-01 challenge, certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.httpChallenge.entryPoint must be reachable by Let's Encrypt through port 80.

??? example "Using an EntryPoint Called http for the httpChallenge"

```toml tab="File (TOML)"
[entryPoints]
  [entryPoints.web]
    address = ":80"
  
  [entryPoints.web-secure]
    address = ":443"

[certificatesResolvers.sample.acme]
  # ...
  [certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.httpChallenge]
    entryPoint = "web"
```

```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
entryPoints:
  web:
    address: ":80"

  web-secure:
    address: ":443"

certificatesResolvers:
  sample:
    acme:
      # ...
      httpChallenge:
        entryPoint: web
```

```bash tab="CLI"
--entryPoints.web.address=":80"
--entryPoints.websecure.address=":443"
# ...
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.httpChallenge.entryPoint=web
```

!!! note Redirection is fully compatible with the HTTP-01 challenge.

dnsChallenge

Use the DNS-01 challenge to generate and renew ACME certificates by provisioning a DNS record.

??? example "Configuring a dnsChallenge with the DigitalOcean Provider"

```toml tab="File (TOML)"
[certificatesResolvers.sample.acme]
  # ...
  [certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.dnsChallenge]
    provider = "digitalocean"
    delayBeforeCheck = 0
# ...
```

```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
certificatesResolvers:
  sample:
    acme:
      # ...
      dnsChallenge:
        provider: digitalocean
        delayBeforeCheck: 0
    # ...
```

```bash tab="CLI"
# ...
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.dnsChallenge.provider=digitalocean
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.dnsChallenge.delayBeforeCheck=0
# ...
```

!!! important
    A `provider` is mandatory.

providers

Here is a list of supported providers, that can automate the DNS verification, along with the required environment variables and their wildcard & root domain support. Do not hesitate to complete it.

Every lego environment variable can be overridden by their respective _FILE counterpart, which should have a filepath to a file that contains the secret as its value. For example, CF_API_EMAIL_FILE=/run/secrets/traefik_cf-api-email could be used to provide a Cloudflare API email address as a Docker secret named traefik_cf-api-email.

!!! note "delayBeforeCheck" By default, the provider verifies the TXT record before letting ACME verify. You can delay this operation by specifying a delay (in seconds) with delayBeforeCheck (value must be greater than zero). This option is useful when internal networks block external DNS queries.

resolvers

Use custom DNS servers to resolve the FQDN authority.

[certificatesResolvers.sample.acme]
  # ...
  [certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.dnsChallenge]
    # ...
    resolvers = ["1.1.1.1:53", "8.8.8.8:53"]

certificatesResolvers:
  sample:
    acme:
      # ...
      dnsChallenge:
        # ...
        resolvers:
        - "1.1.1.1:53"
        - "8.8.8.8:53"

# ...
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.dnsChallenge.resolvers:="1.1.1.1:53,8.8.8.8:53"

Wildcard Domains

ACME V2 supports wildcard certificates. As described in Let's Encrypt's post wildcard certificates can only be generated through a DNS-01 challenge.

caServer

??? example "Using the Let's Encrypt staging server"

```toml tab="File (TOML)"
[certificatesResolvers.sample.acme]
  # ...
  caServer = "https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory"
  # ...
```

```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
certificatesResolvers:
  sample:
    acme:
      # ...
      caServer: https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
      # ...
```

```bash tab="CLI"
# ...
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.caServer="https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory"
# ...
```

storage

The storage option sets the location where your ACME certificates are saved to.

[certificatesResolvers.sample.acme]
  # ...
  storage = "acme.json"
  # ...

certificatesResolvers:
  sample:
    acme:
      # ...
      storage: acme.json
      # ...

# ...
--certificatesResolvers.sample.acme.storage=acme.json
# ...

The value can refer to some kinds of storage:

  • a JSON file

In a File

ACME certificates can be stored in a JSON file that needs to have a 600 file mode .

In Docker you can mount either the JSON file, or the folder containing it:

docker run -v "/my/host/acme.json:acme.json" traefik

docker run -v "/my/host/acme:/etc/traefik/acme" traefik

!!! warning For concurrency reason, this file cannot be shared across multiple instances of Traefik. Use a key value store entry instead.

Fallback

If Let's Encrypt is not reachable, the following certificates will apply:

  1. Previously generated ACME certificates (before downtime)
  2. Expired ACME certificates
  3. Provided certificates

!!! note For new (sub)domains which need Let's Encrypt authentication, the default Traefik certificate will be used until Traefik is restarted.

  3. more information about the HTTP message format can be found here ↩︎

  4. docker stack remark: there is no way to support terminal attached to container when deploying with docker stack, so you might need to run container with docker run -it to generate certificates using manual provider. ↩︎
