# Certbot plugin for authentication using Gandi LiveDNS This is a plugin for Certbot https://certbot.eff.org/ that uses the Gandi LiveDNS API to allow Gandi https://www.gandi.net/ customers to prove control of a domain name. 1. Obtain a Gandi API token (see https://doc.livedns.gandi.net/) 2. Install the plugin: ``` pip install 'git+https://gitlab.com/cspublic/certbot-plugin-gandi.git' ``` 3. Create a `gandi.ini` config file with the following contents: ``` certbot_plugin_gandi:dns_api_key=APIKEY ``` Replace `APIKEY` with your Gandi API key and ensure permissions are set to disallow access to other users. 4. Run `certbot` and direct it to use the plugin for authentication and to use the config file created in (3): ``` certbot certonly -a certbot-plugin-gandi:dns --certbot-plugin-gandi:dns-credentials gandi.ini -d domain.com' ``` Add additional options as required to specify an installation plugin etc.
