# [acme-dns-01-test](https://git.rootprojects.org/root/acme-dns-01-test.js.git) | a [Root](https://rootprojects.org) project
# Let's Encrypt + DNS = [acme-dns-01-test](https://git.rootprojects.org/root/acme-dns-01-test.js.git)
| Built by [Root](https://rootprojects.org) for [Hub](https://rootprojects.org/hub/)
An ACME dns-01 test harness for Let's Encrypt integrations.
This was specificially designed for [ACME.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/acme-v2.js) and [Greenlock.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js), but will be generically useful to any ACME module.

Passing the tests is very easy. There are just five functions to implement:
- `init(deps)` - (optional) this gives you the `request` object you should use for HTTP APIs
- `zones(opts)` - list domain zones (i.e. example.co.uk, example.com)
- `set(opts)` - set a TXT record in a zone (i.e. `_acme-challenge.foo` in `example.co.jp`)
- `get(opts)` - confirm that the record was set
- `remove(opts)` - clean up after the ACME challenge completes
The tests account for single-domain certificates (`example.com`) as well as multiple domain certs (SAN / AltName),
wildcards (`*.example.com`), and valid private / localhost certificates. No worries on your end, just pass the tests. 👌
**Node v6 Support**: Please build community plugins using node v6 / vanillajs
to ensure that all acme.js and greenlock.js users are fully supported.
## Install
This was specificially designed for [ACME.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/acme-v2.js)
and [Greenlock.js](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/greenlock-express.js),
but will be generically useful to any JavaScript DNS plugin for Let's Encrypt.
```bash
npm install --save-dev acme-dns-01-test@3.x
```
## Usage
<!--
```bash
npx acme-dns-01-test --module /path/to/module.js --foo-user --bar--token
```
-->
# How Let's Encrypt works with DNS
In order to validate **wildcard**, **localhost**, and **private domains** through Let's Encrypt,
you must use set some special TXT records in your domain's DNS.
This is called the **ACME DNS-01 Challenge**
For example:
```txt
dig TXT example.com
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;_acme-challenge.example.com. IN TXT
;; ANSWER SECTION:
_acme-challenge.example.com. 300 IN TXT "xxxxxxx"
_acme-challenge.example.com. 300 IN TXT "xxxxxxx"
```
## ACME DNS-01 Challenge Process
The ACME DNS-01 Challenge process works like this:
1. The ACME client order's an SSL Certificate from Let's Encrypt
2. Let's Encrypt asks for validation of the domains on the certificate
3. The ACME client asks to use DNS record verification
4. Let's Encrypt gives a DNS authorization token
5. The ACME client manipulates the token and sets TXT record with the result
6. Let's Encrypt checks the TXT record from DNS clients in diverse locations
7. The ACME client gets a certificate if the validate passes
# Using a Let's Encrypt DNS plugin
Each plugin will define some options, such as an api key, or username and password
that are specific to that plugin.
Other than that, they're all used the same.
## ACME.js + Let's Encrypt DNS-01
This is how an ACME challenge module is with ACME.js:
```js
acme.certificates.create({
accountKey,
csr,
domains,
challenges: {
'dns-01': require('acme-dns-01-MODULE_NAME').create({
fooUser: 'A_PLUGIN_SPECIFIC_OPTION',
barToken: 'A_PLUGIN_SPECIFIC_OPTION'
})
}
});
```
## Greenlock + Let's Encrypt DNS-01
This is how modules are used with Greenlock / Greenlock Express
**Global** default:
```js
greenlock.manager.defaults({
challenges: {
'dns-01': {
module: 'acme-dns-01-_MODULE_NAME',
fooUser: 'A_PLUGIN_SPECIFIC_OPTION',
barToken: 'A_PLUGIN_SPECIFIC_OPTION'
}
}
});
```
**Per-Site** config:
```js
greenlock.add({
subject: 'example.com',
altnames: ['example.com', '*.example.com', 'foo.bar.example.com'],
challenges: {
'dns-01': {
module: 'acme-dns-01-YOUR_MODULE_NAME',
fooUser: 'A_PLUGIN_SPECIFIC_OPTION',
barToken: 'A_PLUGIN_SPECIFIC_OPTION'
}
}
});
```
# The Easy Way to Build a Plugin
This repo includes **unit test suite** which makes it _very_ easy to create a plugin.
You can start with a **template file** that will fail all of the tests, and just
build until you pass all of the tests.
After that, you can **test the Greenlock CLI** to see if
you actually get a valid SSL certificate.
## Overview
There are only a few methods to implement - just basic CRUD operations.
For most serivices these are very simple to implement
(see the **reference implementations** down below).
Some enterprise-y services are more difficult as they may have special
rules about zones (Google Cloud) or intricate authentication schemes (AWS).
```
init({ request })
zones({ dnsHosts })
set({ challenge: { dnsZone, dnsPrefix, dnsHost, keyAuthorizationDigest } })
get({ challenge: { dnsZone, dnsPrefix, dnsHost, keyAuthorizationDigest } })
remove({ challenge: { dnsZone, dnsPrefix, dnsHost, keyAuthorizationDigest } })
```
## Plugin Outline
This is an even better starter template below,
but this outline shows the bare bones of a plugin.
```
'use strict';
var MyModule = module.exports;
MyModule.create = function (options) {
var m = {};
m.init = async function ({ request }) {
// (optional) initialize your module
}
m.zones = async function ({ dnsHosts }) {
// return a list of "Zones" or "Apex Domains" (i.e. example.com, NOT foo.example.com)
}
m.set = async function ({ challenge: { dnsZone, dnsPrefix, dnsHost, keyAuthorizationDigest } }) {
// set a TXT record for dnsHost with keyAuthorizationDigest as the value
}
m.get = async function ({ challenge: { dnsZone, dnsPrefix, dnsHost, keyAuthorizationDigest } }) {
// check that the EXACT a TXT record that was set, exists, and return it
}
m.remove = async function ({ challenge: { dnsZone, dnsPrefix, dnsHost, keyAuthorizationDigest } }) {
// remove the exact TXT record that was set
}
return m;
}
```
## Using the Test Suite
Test setup:
```js
var tester = require('acme-dns-01-test');
var YOUR_PLUGIN = require('./YOUR-CHALLENGE-STRATEGY');
//var challenger = require('acme-dns-01-cli').create({});
var challenger = require('./YOUR-CHALLENGE-STRATEGY').create({
var challenger = YOUR_PLUGIN.create({
YOUR_TOKEN_OPTION: 'SOME_API_KEY'
});
```
// The dry-run tests can pass on, literally, 'example.com'
// but the integration tests require that you have control over the domain
Run the tests:
```
var zone = 'example.com';
tester.testZone('dns-01', zone, challenger).then(function() {
@ -43,8 +210,11 @@ tester.testZone('dns-01', zone, challenger).then(function() {
});
```
**Note**: If the service you are testing only handles individual records
(not multiple records in a zone), you can use `testRecord` instead:
**Note**: Special DNS services, like **DuckDNS**, only give you a **single sub-domain**,
not a full "zone". You can test them too:
Some DNS services, such as **DuckDNS**, only give you a **single sub-domain**,

## dns-01 vs http-01
For `type` dns-01:
// `dnsHost` is the domain/subdomain/host
// `dnsAuthorization` is the value of the TXT record
// `dnsPrefix` is the record-only part, if `zones()` is implemented
// `dnsZone` is the zone-only part, if `zones()` is implemented
For `type` http-01:
// `altname` is the name of the domain
// `token` is the name of the file ( .well-known/acme-challenge/`token` )
// `keyAuthorization` is the contents of the file
See [acme-http-01-test.js](https://git.rootprojects.org/root/acme-dns-01-test.js.git).

## Full Detailed Example
Here's a quick pseudo stub-out of what a test-passing plugin object might look like:
```js
var request;
var deps = {};
tester
.testZone('dns-01', 'example.com', {
init: function(deps) {
// { request: { get, post, put, delete }
// }
init: function({ request }) {
// { request: { get, post, put, delete } }
request = deps.request;
deps.request = request;
return null;
},
zones: function(opts) {
zones: function({ dnsHosts }) {
// { dnsHosts: [
// '_acme-challenge.foo.example.com',
// '_acme-challenge.bar.example.com'
