# Certbot DNS Plugin for Hetzner Cloud DNS
This is a Certbot DNS plugin for the new Hetzner Cloud DNS, which allows you to automate the process of obtaining and
renewing SSL/TLS certificates using the DNS-01 challenge method. This Plugin is not compatible with the old Hetzner DNS
Console and you might want to take a look at the [certbot-dns-hetzner][1] plugin instead.
## Setup
### Installation
To install the Certbot DNS plugin for Hetzner Cloud DNS, you can either use `pip` or `snap`.
#### Installation using *pip*
If you installed Certbot within a virtual environment (e.g., `/opt/certbot`) as per [official Certbot instructions][2]
you can install the plugin using the following command:
```bash
/opt/certbot/bin/pip install certbot-dns-hetzner-cloud
```
#### Installation using *snap*
If you installed Certbot using `snap`, you can install the plugin with the following commands:
```bash
sudo snap install certbot-dns-hetzner-cloud
sudo snap set certbot trust-plugin-with-root=ok
sudo snap connect certbot:plugin certbot-dns-hetzner-cloud
```
#### Verify installation
After installation, you can verify that the plugin is available by running:
```bash
certbot plugins
```
you should see `dns-hetzner-cloud` listed among the available plugins.
### Storing the API Token
Create a configuration file under `/etc/letsencrypt/hetzner-cloud.ini` with the following content:
```ini
# Hetzner Cloud API Token
dns_hetzner_cloud_api_token = your_api_token_here
```
Make sure to set the correct permissions for the configuration file to protect your API token:
```bash
sudo chmod 600 /etc/letsencrypt/hetzner_cloud.ini
```
If you want to use a different path for the configuration file, you can specify it using the `--dns-hetzner-cloud-credentials` option when running Certbot.
## Usage
You can use the plugin with Certbot by specifying the `dns-hetzner-cloud` authenticator.
Here is an example command to obtain a certificate for a wildcard subdomain:
```bash
certbot certonly --agree-tos \
--authenticator dns-hetzner-cloud \
-d '*.example.eu'
```
If you want to use a different path for the configuration file, you can specify it using the
`--dns-hetzner-cloud-credentials` option.
```bash
certbot certonly --agree-tos \
--authenticator dns-hetzner-cloud \
--dns-hetzner-cloud-credentials /path/to/your/hetzner_cloud.ini \
-d '*.example.eu'
```
