Alidns-Webhook

Overview

alidns-webhook is a generic ACME solver for cert-manager.

Quick start

This tutorial will detail how to configure and install the webhook to your cluster with alidns.

Install webhook

Before installing this webhook, make sure you have cert-manager installed correctly. If you haven't installed it yet, you can get the installation instructions from the cert-manager documentation.

If you have Helm, you can deploy the alidns-webhook with the following command:

helm upgrade --install alidns-webhook alidns-webhook \
    --repo https://wjiec.github.io/alidns-webhook \
    --namespace cert-manager --create-namespace \
    --set groupName=acme.yourcompany.com

It will install the alidns-webhook in the cert-manager namespace, creating that namespace if it doesn't already exist.

Configure a issuer

Create this definition locally and update the email address and groupName to your own. Please see more details in cert-manager configuration.

Ensure the groupName matches the config in the webhook.

#
# example-acme-issuer.yaml
#

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: alidns-secret
  namespace: cert-manager
stringData:
  access-key-id: "Your Access Key Id"
  access-key-secret: "Your Access Key Secret"
---
apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: ClusterIssuer
metadata:
  name: example-acme
spec:
  acme:
    # The ACME server URL
    server: https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
    # Email address used for ACME registration
    email: your@example.com # Change ME
    # Name of a secret used to store the ACME account private key
    privateKeySecretRef:
      name: example-acme
    solvers:
      - dns01:
          webhook:
            groupName: acme.yourcompany.com # Change ME
            solverName: alidns
            config:
              region: "cn-hangzhou" # Optional
              accessKeyIdRef:
                name: alidns-secret
                key: access-key-id
              accessKeySecretRef:
                name: alidns-secret
                key: access-key-secret

Once edited, apply the custom resource:

kubectl create --edit -f example-acme-issuer.yaml

Creating Certificate or deploy a TLS Ingress

We can deploy a certificate directly on Ingress, edit the ingress add the annotations:

kind: Ingress
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
  name: foo-example-com
  annotations:
    cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer: "example-acme"
    # cert-manager.io/issuer: "example-acme"
spec:
  tls:
  - hosts:
    - foo.example.com
    secretName: foo-example-com-tls
  rules:
  - host: foo.example.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /
        pathType: Prefix
        backend:
          service:
            name: backend-service
            port:
              name: http

Or we can create a Certificate resource that is to be honored by an issuer which is to be kept up-to-date.

apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: Certificate
metadata:
  name: star-example-com
spec:
  secretName: star-example-com-tls
  commonName: "example.com"
  dnsNames:
  - "example.com"
  - "*.example.com"
  issuerRef:
    name: example-acme
    kind: ClusterIssuer
    # kind: Issuer

Then we can refer to that secrets(secretName) in Ingress.
