October: Will there be any support for LetsEncrypt SSL

Created on 11 Nov 2016 · 2Comments · Source: octobercms/october

LetsEncrypt https://letsencrypt.org/ offers free ssl certificate for webservers.
Mostly this becomes too complicated on shared server.
I've resolved some issues by changing .htaccess file

RewriteRule "^.well-known/acme-challenge" - [L]
# add before White listed folders and files

Will there be any automation related to LetsEncrypt be added in Octobercms.?
Is it possible to update certificate through PHP or admin interface.?

Ive create a simple GUI for managing Let's Encrypt Certificates
Plugin can be downloaded from here:
http://octobercms.com/plugin/iocare-letsencrypt

Its very simple but eases the process of certificate request. Further I would like to create a cron job process URL so that this can be generated frequently and checked for certificates validity.

I guess this will help many people who are using Let's Encrypt SSL.

Regarding a UI to create and renew certificates, sounds like a great idea for a plugin.
