Raw Blame History

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.

Use Let's Encrypt staging server with the [`caServer`](#caserver) configuration option
when experimenting to avoid hitting this limit too fast.

Certificate Resolvers

Traefik requires you to define "Certificate Resolvers" in the static configuration, which are responsible for retrieving certificates from an ACME server.

Then, each "router" is configured to enable TLS, and is associated to a certificate resolver through the tls.certresolver configuration option.

Certificates are requested for domain names retrieved from the router's dynamic configuration.

You can read more about this retrieval mechanism in the following section: ACME Domain Definition.

!!! warning "Defining an ACME challenge type is a requirement for a certificate resolver to be functional."

!!! important "Defining a certificate resolver does not result in all routers automatically using it. Each router that is supposed to use the resolver must reference it."

??? note "Configuration Reference"

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

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

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

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

Domain Definition

Certificate resolvers request certificates for a set of the domain names inferred from routers, with the following logic:

If the router has a tls.domains option set, then the certificate resolver uses the main (and optionally sans) option of tls.domains to know the domain names for this router.
If no tls.domains option is set, then the certificate resolver uses the router's rule, by checking the Host() matchers. Please note that multiple Host() matchers can be used) for specifying multiple domain names for this router.

Please note that:

When multiple domain names are inferred from a given router, only one certificate is requested with the first domain name as the main domain, and the other domains as "SANs" (Subject Alternative Name).
As ACME V2 supports "wildcard domains", any router can provide a wildcard domain name, as "main" domain or as "SAN" domain.

Please check the configuration examples below for more details.

!!! important "Defining a certificate resolver does not result in all routers automatically using it. Each router that is supposed to use the resolver must reference it."

??? example "Single Domain from Router's Rule Example"

* A certificate for the domain `example.com` is requested:

--8<-- "content/https/include-acme-single-domain-example.md"

??? example "Multiple Domains from Router's Rule Example"

* A certificate for the domains `example.com` (main) and `blog.example.org`
  is requested:

* A certificate for the domains `example.com` (main) and `*.example.org` (SAN)
  is requested:

--8<-- "content/https/include-acme-multiple-domains-example.md"

Automatic Renewals

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

By default, Traefik manages 90 days certificates, and starts to renew certificates 30 days before their expiry.

When using a certificate resolver that issues certificates with custom durations, one can configure the certificates' duration with the certificatesDuration option.

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

Using LetsEncrypt with Kubernetes

When using LetsEncrypt with kubernetes, there are some known caveats with both the ingress and crd providers.

!!! info "" If you intend to run multiple instances of Traefik with LetsEncrypt, please ensure you read the sections on those provider pages.

The Different ACME Challenges

!!! warning "Defining one ACME challenge is a requirement for a certificate resolver to be functional."

!!! important "Defining a certificate resolver does not result in all routers automatically using it. Each router that is supposed to use the resolver must reference it."

`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"

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

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

```bash tab="CLI"
# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.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.myresolver.acme.httpchallenge.entrypoint must be reachable by Let's Encrypt through port 80.

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

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

  websecure:
    address: ":443"

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

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

  [entryPoints.websecure]
    address = ":443"

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

```bash tab="CLI"
--entrypoints.web.address=:80
--entrypoints.websecure.address=:443
# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.httpchallenge.entrypoint=web
```

!!! info "" 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"

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

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

```bash tab="CLI"
# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.dnschallenge.provider=digitalocean
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.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.

Many lego environment variables 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.

For complete details, refer to your provider's Additional configuration link.

!!! info "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:
  myresolver:
    acme:
      # ...
      dnsChallenge:
        # ...
        resolvers:
          - "1.1.1.1:53"
          - "8.8.8.8:53"

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

# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.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.

External Account Binding

kid: Key identifier from External CA
hmacEncoded: HMAC key from External CA, should be in Base64 URL Encoding without padding format

certificatesResolvers:
  myresolver:
    acme:
      # ...
      eab:
        kid: abc-keyID-xyz
        hmacEncoded: abc-hmac-xyz

[certificatesResolvers.myresolver.acme]
  # ...
  [certificatesResolvers.myresolver.acme.eab]
    kid = "abc-keyID-xyz"
    hmacEncoded = "abc-hmac-xyz"

# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.eab.kid=abc-keyID-xyz
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.eab.hmacencoded=abc-hmac-xyz

More Configuration

`caServer`

Required, Default="https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory"

The CA server to use:

Let's Encrypt production server: https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
Let's Encrypt staging server: https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory

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

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

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

```bash tab="CLI"
# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.caserver=https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
# ...
```

`storage`

Required, Default="acme.json"

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

certificatesResolvers:
  myresolver:
    acme:
      # ...
      storage: acme.json
      # ...

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

# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.storage=acme.json
# ...

ACME certificates are 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 reasons, this file cannot be shared across multiple instances of Traefik.

`certificatesDuration`

Optional, Default=2160

The certificatesDuration option defines the certificates' duration in hours. It defaults to 2160 (90 days) to follow Let's Encrypt certificates' duration.

!!! warning "Traefik cannot manage certificates with a duration lower than 1 hour."

certificatesResolvers:
  myresolver:
    acme:
      # ...
      certificatesDuration: 72
      # ...

[certificatesResolvers.myresolver.acme]
  # ...
  certificatesDuration=72
  # ...

# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.certificatesduration=72
# ...

certificatesDuration is used to calculate two durations:

Renew Period: the period before the end of the certificate duration, during which the certificate should be renewed.
Renew Interval: the interval between renew attempts.

Certificate Duration	Renew Period	Renew Interval
>= 1 year	4 months	1 week
>= 90 days	30 days	1 day
>= 7 days	1 day	1 hour
>= 24 hours	6 hours	10 min
< 24 hours	20 min	1 min

`preferredChain`

Optional, Default=""

Preferred chain to use.

If the CA offers multiple certificate chains, prefer the chain with an issuer matching this Subject Common Name. If no match, the default offered chain will be used.

certificatesResolvers:
  myresolver:
    acme:
      # ...
      preferredChain: 'ISRG Root X1'
      # ...

[certificatesResolvers.myresolver.acme]
  # ...
  preferredChain = "ISRG Root X1"
  # ...

# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.preferredChain=ISRG Root X1
# ...

`keyType`

Optional, Default="RSA4096"

KeyType used for generating certificate private key. Allow value 'EC256', 'EC384', 'RSA2048', 'RSA4096', 'RSA8192'.

certificatesResolvers:
  myresolver:
    acme:
      # ...
      keyType: 'RSA4096'
      # ...

[certificatesResolvers.myresolver.acme]
  # ...
  keyType = "RSA4096"
  # ...

# ...
--certificatesresolvers.myresolver.acme.keyType=RSA4096
# ...

Fallback

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

Previously generated ACME certificates (before downtime)
Expired ACME certificates
Provided certificates

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

The Global API Key needs to be used, not the Origin CA Key. ↩︎
Providing credentials to your application. ↩︎
google/default.go ↩︎
As explained in the LEGO hurricane configuration, each domain or wildcard (record name) needs a token. So each update of record name must be followed by an update of the HURRICANE_TOKENS variable, and a restart of Traefik. ↩︎
More information about the HTTP message format can be found here. ↩︎
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. ↩︎
