Kubernetes Certificate Manager
This project is loosely based on https://github.com/kelseyhightower/kube-cert-manager It took over most of its documentation, license, as well as the general approach to how things work.
The code itself however, was entirely reimplemented to use xenolf/lego as the basis, instead of reimplementing an ACME client and DNS plugins.
Version
Please note: This is the documentation for the currently in development version of kcm, please refer to v0.4.0 for documentation for the latest stable version
Special note for upgrading from earlier versions
If you are upgrading from a version before 0.5.0 then note that the default way to identify Ingress resources
to be managed by the certificate manager has changed, from the enabled annotation, to the class label.
Backwards compatible behaviour is available by setting the -class argument to a blank value.
