Let’s Encrypt in the spotlight

I just have an ansible role which runs against a server and SSL gets set up 100% for free. It's wonderful. One time time investment to write the ansible role, and now it takes like 5 seconds to enable for any server I'd like.

So that's the provisioning process at server setup/instantiation; how do you handle the 90 day renewal?

The ansible role installs my ACME client of choice (https://github.com/lukas2511/dehydrated), invokes it once, and adds a cronjob.

We do the same and I found it a breeze, I even have some hooks which talk to the cloudflare API to setup the txt records for verification.

I assume the GP's ansible role writes a crontab entry to perform the renewal.
