le-godaddy-dns-pve is a fork of le-godaddy-dns that automatically deploys new certificates to Proxmox.
le-godaddy-dns is a Let's encrypt module, designed to be used as a hook with dehydrated for DNS-based validation against GoDaddy DNS.
To use this module you will need the following:
- curl
- python3
- godaddypy python3 module
- Production Godaddy API keys
- OpenSSL (or basically whatever
dehydrated
depends on)
Before anything else: Back up your zone-file.
You are letting a program meddle with your DNS. Bugs happen. Shit happens. Be prepared.
First you need to download all dependencies and configure dehydrated
.
# get dependencies
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip curl
python3 -m pip install --user godaddypy
# setup a workplace
ROOTDIR=$HOME/letsencrypt
mkdir -p $ROOTDIR
cd $ROOTDIR
# get dehydrated
git clone https://github.com/lukas2511/dehydrated
# get le-godaddy-dns
git clone https://github.com/wcpr740/le-godaddy-dns
# configure dehydratedh
cd $ROOTDIR/dehydrated
nano domains.txt
# the format for domains.txt is documented in dehydrated's repo.
# https://github.com/lukas2511/dehydrated/blob/master/docs/domains_txt.md
cat domains.txt
mydomain.com sub.mydomain.com
example.com
...
Now you need to configure le-godaddy-dns
and retrieve your certs.
# configure your API keys
export GD_KEY=your_key_here
export GD_SECRET=your_secret_here
# run dehydrated in "cron" mode (-c)
# this creates CSRs, keys and everything we need automatically for us.
./dehydrated --challenge dns-01 -k $ROOTDIR/le-godaddy-dns/godaddy.py -c
You should now have your certs, and the output should tell you where they are.
You can put the last section in a script and add as a cronjob to ensure your certificates gets auto-renewed.
You can optionally inspect that they look like they should
find . -name fullchain.pem -exec openssl x509 -in '{}' -text -noout \;
find . -name fullchain.pem -exec openssl x509 -in '{}' -subject -noout \;
You may also decide to customize the deploy_certificates
hook in
goddaddy.py
if you want the certificates automatically copied
to another destination than the one provided by dehydrated
.

This module is provided as is and comes with absolutely NO warranties and I take absolutely NO responsibility should an error resulting from using this script wipe out your DNS and get your Godaddy account terminated.
Bugs in dependant Python-modules have resulted in data-loss for the author, and while the currently published code only uses code proven to be safe at time of writing, I can make no guarantees about how things may or may not work in the future.
Testing the module on a test-domain where you can afford downtime is definitely recommended.
That said, it all works for me.
