A Bash Script to Auto Renew Minio SSL

cloudpap · September 2023

Hello everyone,

I wrote a script using bash to help renew lets encrypt ssl issued using on a minio instance. Minio is an s3 compatible storage. Basically, the ssl is issued via certbot but files need to be moved around. I found myself every now and then having my minio ssl expired and I didn't know. so i created this script to check daily when the hostname ssl expires and to renew it automatically. hope it helps someone with a similar need.

#!/bin/bash
PUSHOVER_API_TOKEN='xxxxx'
PUSHOVER_API_USER='xxxx'

HOSTNAME=$(hostname)


DEFAULT_PRIVATEKEY_LOCATION=/etc/letsencrypt/live/$HOSTNAME/privkey.pem
DEFAULT_CERTIFICATE_LOCATION=/etc/letsencrypt/live/$HOSTNAME/fullchain.pem

MINIO_USERNAME=minio-user
MINIO_PRIVATEKEY_LOCATION=/etc/minio/certs/private.key
MINIO_CERTIFICATE_LOCATION=/etc/minio/certs/public.crt


certexpiredays(){
    EXPIREDATE=$(openssl x509 -in $MINIO_CERTIFICATE_LOCATION -enddate -noout | sed "s/.*=\(.*\)/\1/")
    EXPIRE_DATE_IN_SECONDS=$(date -d "${EXPIREDATE}" +%s)
    NOW_IN_SECONDS=$(date -d now +%s)
    DATE_DIFF_IN_SECONDS=$(( (EXPIRE_DATE_IN_SECONDS - NOW_IN_SECONDS) / 86400 ))

    echo $DATE_DIFF_IN_SECONDS
}


notify(){
    STATUS=$1

    local TITLE="Renewal of Minio SSL"
    if [[  $STATUS -eq 0  ]]
    then
        local MESSAGE="SUCCESS! Minio SSL successfully replenished for https://$HOSTNAME:9000"
    else
        local MESSAGE="FAILED! Could not complete SSL renewal for minio. Status code: $STATUS for https://$HOSTNAME:9000"
    fi
    local SOUND=siren
    local TIME=$(date)
    local PRIORITY=0

And by the way, you need to set a cron job to run the bash script above daily.
