Get a certificate

If using nginx, getting a certificate with cerbot's nginx plugin is the easiest way:

Install the Certbot Nginx plugin

sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-certbot-nginx

This installs the --nginx plugin that Certbot needs.

Run Certbot

Now run:

sudo certbot --nginx -d nvapis.puppygoapp.com

Certbot will automatically:

• Validate via HTTP
• Install the certificate in your Nginx config
• Reload Nginx

Renew licence (future)

sudo systemctl stop nginx
sudo certbot renew
sudo systemctl start nginx

Auto renew all licences, but causes downtime.
