Update TLS certificate with Reverse Proxy automatictly

Questions

Assuming you are using docker volumes or bind mounts for your containers, this is how things could work. mailcerts-script runs via cron once a day. Just change the “<*-home>” entries with your values.

Note, that these are not bullet-proof fully grown scripts, just little helpers.

Hope that helps.

#!/bin/bash

#
# mailcerts - copy certificates from Caddy to Stalwart
#
# caddy bind-dir "acme" mounted into caddy:/data/acme
# stalwart bind-dir "certs" mounted into stalwart:/etc/mycerts
#
# referencing within stalwart as "/etc/mycerts/example1.{crt,key}", etc.
# stalwart-cli required (using docker container and wrapper script in /usr/local/bin)
#

certs_updated=0

caddy_dir="<caddy-home>/acme/certificates/acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org-directory"
stalwart_dir="<stalwart-home>/certs"

for domain in example1.com mail.example1.com example2.com; do

  crt_file="${domain}.crt"
  md5_caddy=$(md5sum ${caddy_dir}/${domain}/${crt_file} | cut -d' ' -f1)
  md5_stalwart=$(md5sum ${stalwart_dir}/${crt_file} | cut -d' ' -f1)

  if [[ "$md5_caddy" != "$md5_stalwart" ]]; then

    cp ${caddy_dir}/${domain}/${domain}.{crt,key} ${stalwart_dir}
    let certs_updated++

  fi

done

if [[ $certs_updated -gt 0 ]]; then
  
  # fix permissions for new certs
  chown 2000:2000 ${stalwart_dir}/*.{crt,key}
  chmod 440 ${stalwart_dir}/*.{crt,key}

  # then reload them
  /usr/local/bin/stalwart-cli create action/ReloadTlsCertificates --json '{}'

fi

Place this as /usr/local/bin/stalwart-cli, adapt homedir, stalwart docker network + create file STALWART_ADMIN_TOKEN with a valid token from stalwart.

#!/bin/sh

# Wrapper for stalwart-cli container
# note the docker volume to be used as cache, replace with simple bind-mount
# or remove it - will work anyways

cmd="$*"
ADMIN_TOKEN=$(cat <stalwart_home>/STALWART_ADMIN_TOKEN)

docker run --rm --network <stalwart_docker_network> --name stalwart_cli \
  -e "STALWART_URL=http://stalwart:8080" \
  -e "STALWART_TOKEN=${ADMIN_TOKEN}" \
  -v "stalwart-cli_cache:/home/nonroot/.cache" \
  stalwartlabs/cli:1.0.10 ${cmd}
