Automatic tls with acme

Automatic TLS

vince supports automatic tls using acme client with let’s encrypt.

Enabling automatic tls

env : VINCE_AUTO_TLS example VINCE_AUTO_TLS=true

flag : --autoTLS example --autoTLS=true

You need to setup account email address and the domain to generate certificate for, using acmeEmail and acmeDomain options.

acmeEmail

This is used by CAs, such as Let’s Encrypt, to notify about problems with issued certificates.

env : VINCE_ACME_EMAIL example VINCE_ACME_EMAIL=example@example.org

flag : --acmeEmail example --acmeEmail=example@example.org

acmeDomain

acmeDomain should be the domain name that is used to point to your server. For example we host demo vince instance on demo.vinceanalytics.com so we use this as acmeDomain

env : VINCE_ACME_DOMAIN example VINCE_ACME_DOMAIN=example.org

flag : --acmeDomain example --acmeDomain=example.org
