lerobot

Status: experimental

A simple robot managing Let's Encrypt certificates.

The current version is very limited and only allows DNS verification via Route53.

The following credentials are expected in environment variables:

  • AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
  • AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
  • AWS_HOSTED_ZONE_ID
  • AWS_REGION

That's by lego's design, which lerobot uses for the ACME part for the time being.

Setup

Create a separate lerobot user with its own home directory, for example:

sudo adduser --system --disabled-password --home /home/lerobot --shell /bin/bash --gecos '' --group lerobot
sudo chmod 0700 /home/lerobot

Add an environment file /etc/lerobot-env with AWS credentials:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=ABCD
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=1234
AWS_HOSTED_ZONE_ID=ZXXXL
AWS_REGION=eu-central-1

Add a lerobot.service systemd unit:

cat <<LEROBOT_SERVICE | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/lerobot.service
[Unit]
Description=lerobot
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target systemd-networkd-wait-online.service

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/lerobot daemon --authorized-keys-file /home/lerobot/.ssh/authorized_keys

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
LEROBOT_SERVICE

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Create a file lets-encrypt.yaml in the home directory of the lerobot user (here /home/lerobot) with the following structure:

accounts:
  - email: infra@example.com
    ssh_public_key: |
      ssh-rsa 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 infra@example.com

certificates:
  - account: infra@example.com
    common_name: foo.example.com
    preferred_chain: ISRG Root X1
    subject_alternative_names:
      - bar.example.com
      - baz.example.com

Note: account data must be unique, i.e. do not duplicate email or ssh_public_key.

All certificates for an account are stored in the same directory and available to the same SSH user. I.e. to separate access to certificates, use different Let's Encrypt users and different SSH keypairs.

Finally, enable and start lerobot.service:

sudo systemctl enable lerobot
sudo systemctl start lerobot

Testing

When testing, make sure to not use the Let's Encrypt production API but staging (can be set with --le-url):

https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory

Example lerobot daemon invocation for testing:

./bin/lerobot daemon --le-api https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory --le-config lets-encrypt.yaml

Example `lets-encrypt.yaml' file for testing:

accounts:
  - email: infra@example.com
certificates:
  - account: infra@example.com
    common_name: "*.example.com"
    preferred_chain: ""
    subject_alternative_names: []

Certificate consumers

Users are allowed to rsync all certificates for their account to their machines. rsync is the only allowed command. In the default configuration, the remote source path must be set exactly like shown below, i.e. certificates/<email>/. It's not possible to use a different path or to only sync a particular file.

Example:

rsync -ave "ssh -i /etc/lerobot.pem" lerobot@example.com:certificates/infra@example.com/ /etc/certificates/

This can be put into a systemd service triggered by a systemd timer once per day.
