Replaces direct dns-server RPC calls (admin shared key, NetBird-only reachability) with calls to the public /api/v1 surface. The plugin now logs in with an email + app password, caches the returned Bearer for the run, then findZone/addRecord/deleteRecord through HTTPS. Any yeil user with an owned DNS zone can use it from anywhere with internet access — no more shared key, no NetBird requirement. INI shape: dns_yeil_email = you@yourdomain.com dns_yeil_app_password = abcd-efgh-ijkl-mnop # dns_yeil_base_url = https://dns.yeil.app (optional override) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# certbot-dns-yeil
|
|
|
|
yeil DNS Authenticator plugin for [Certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/).
|
|
|
|
Authenticates against `dns.yeil.app`'s public API with an email and an
|
|
app password, then adds/removes TXT records to satisfy ACME DNS-01
|
|
challenges. Works for any yeil user with an owned DNS zone — the
|
|
certbot host just needs HTTPS reachability to `dns.yeil.app`.
|
|
|
|
Wildcard certs require DNS-01, so this plugin (or another DNS
|
|
authenticator) is needed for `*.example.com`.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
pip install git+https://git.eskimo.dev/Yeil/certbot-dns-yeil.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Create an app password at `https://account.yeil.app/security` and
|
|
drop it into a credentials INI:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
dns_yeil_email = you@yourdomain.com
|
|
dns_yeil_app_password = abcd-efgh-ijkl-mnop
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`chmod 600` it.
|
|
|
|
Optional override if you're testing against a non-production host:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
dns_yeil_base_url = https://dns.staging.example
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
certbot certonly \
|
|
--authenticator dns-yeil \
|
|
--dns-yeil-credentials /etc/letsencrypt/yeil.ini \
|
|
-d smtp.yeil.org \
|
|
--preferred-challenges dns
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For wildcards:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
certbot certonly \
|
|
--authenticator dns-yeil \
|
|
--dns-yeil-credentials /etc/letsencrypt/yeil.ini \
|
|
-d yeil.org -d '*.yeil.org'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
The plugin logs in once per run (`POST /api/v1/auth/login`) and caches
|
|
the returned Bearer token. For each requested name it asks the API
|
|
which zone the account owns that covers the FQDN
|
|
(`GET /api/v1/zones?suffix_of=<fqdn>`), creates a TXT at
|
|
`_acme-challenge.<rel>` (`POST /api/v1/zones/{id}/records`), waits for
|
|
propagation, and on cleanup deletes the record by id
|
|
(`DELETE /api/v1/zones/{id}/records/{recordId}`).
|
|
|
|
The token is a real yeil session — revoking the app password (or
|
|
hitting `/logout`) invalidates it cleanly.
