Options

If any of these values are undefined or null the will assume use reasonable defaults.

Partially defined values will be merged with the defaults.

Setting the value to false will, in many cases (as documented), disable the defaults.

webrootPath: string             // string     a path to a folder where temporary challenge files will be stored and read
                                // default    os.tmpdir() + path.sep + 'acme-challenge'


getChallenge: func | false      // false      do not handle getChallenge
                                //
                                // func       Example:
                                //
                                // default    function (defaults, hostname, key, cb) {
                                //              var filename = path.join(defaults.webrootPath.replace(':hostname', hostname), key);
                                //              fs.readFile(filename, 'ascii', function (cb, text) {
                                //                cb(null, text);
                                //              })
                                //            }


httpsOptions: object            // object     will be merged with internal defaults and passed to https.createServer()
                                //            { pfx, key, cert, passphrase, ca, ciphers, rejectUnauthorized, secureProtocol }
                                //            See https://nodejs.org/api/https.html
                                //            Note: if SNICallback is specified, it will be run *before*
                                //            the internal SNICallback that manages automated certificates
                                //
                                // default    uses a localhost cert and key to prevent https.createServer() from throwing an error
                                //            and also uses our SNICallback, which manages certificates


sniCallback: func               // func       replace the default sniCallback handler (which manages certificates) with your own
