Is it possible to issue wildcard Let's Encrypt certificates via CLI?

Question

Is it possible to issue Let's Encrypt wildcard certificates over CLI?

Answer

Since SSL It! 1.4.0 it is possible to issue wildcard certificate via CLI using the following steps:

1. Connect to the server via SSH

2. Prepare:

   # plesk ext sslit --certificate -issue -domain example.com -registrationEmail jdoe@example.com -secure-domain -wildcard

   (in case it is required to include SSL/TLS certificate for mail add -secure-mail parameter to the command ).

   The output will get the following:

   - status: pending
   - message: Started issuing a wildcard SSL/TLS certificate from Let's Encrypt for the domain example.com.
   - domainName: example.com
   - dnsRecordType: TXT
   - dnsRecordHost: _acme-challenge
   - dnsRecordValue: E5QxxfidIhwnyTJUiJ7AhZjluy1JEbmCsoA9K0pvFUg
   - release: obsidian

3. In case DNS is not managed by Plesk, add/update the _acme-challenge.example.com 'TXT' record with the challenge from dnsRecordValueon registrar side;

4. When the required TXT was added and could be resolved externally, complete the request:

   # plesk ext sslit --certificate -issue -domain example.com -registrationEmail jdoe@example.com -continue
