Dehydrated: Letsencrypt/acme client implemented as a shell-script
Self contained but hardly a tiny supply chain attack surface: https://github.com/go-acme/lego/blob/master/go.sum

Running one’s own root Certificate Authority in 2023
This ACME client looks promising, but I haven’t tried it yet: https://github.com/go-acme/lego

I am once again asking that "web" and "fullstack" developers...
My favorite method of obtaining certificates is with lets encrypt and LEGO

Where do you get/setup certificates from for your https/ssl?
Caddy where possible, and acme.sh or lego where not.
- Anyone using WireGuard with a domain name? Any ideas to lower the bills?
- Acme.sh runs arbitrary commands from a remote server
-
How do you renew SSL certificates?
Depend on host's capability... - lego - dehydrated - caddy - in case it already works as a web server, it will automatically issue and renew certs
- Automating LE renewals with dns-01?
-
LeGo CertHub v0.9.0 with Docker Support
u/gregtwallace maybe in the short term until you write your own, you could provide a hook into one of the many ACME client implementations which do DNS-01 and support the majority of major DNS provider APIs out of the box? That would make your (really great!) project much more widely usable.

Is updating software in Docker containers useful?
And if you want to make the container quickly secure without bloats, maybe give this a try https://github.com/slimtoolkit/slim

An Overview of Kubernetes Security Projects at KubeCon Europe 2023
Slim.ai presents the data in a more user friendly way than many of the other tools in this post. On top of its open source SlimToolkit for identifying the contents of an image, Slim.ai uses Trivy for vulnerability scanning.

What about https://github.com/slimtoolkit/slim?

package a poetry project in a docker container for production
A last practice that I do not use at all and which may interest you is to use slim toolkit to keep only the useful elements in your final image.

Standard container sizes
Anyone tried using https://github.com/docker-slim/docker-slim To minify an image?..

M1: Docker doesn't find shared x64 shared objects even though platform was specified
Distroless images are better left for people with serious need for lightweight images and good Linux knowledge because they require lot of planning with the build so that they stay light and work. If you need lighter images but docker isn't your main tool and you can't afford to take hours and hours of practicing different build strategies you can check docker-slim (https://dockersl.im/). With this tool you can easily size down the images.

I deleted 78% of my Redis container and it still works
Maybe this would help in that regard: https://github.com/docker-slim/docker-slim
What are some alternatives?
When comparing lego and Lean and Mean Docker containers you can also consider the following projects:
letsencrypt - Certbot is EFF's tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt and (optionally) auto-enable HTTPS on your server. It can also act as a client for any other CA that uses the ACME protocol.
minideb - A small image based on Debian designed for use in containers
acme.sh - A pure Unix shell script implementing ACME client protocol
Go random string generator - Flexible and customizable random string generator
acme-dns - Limited DNS server with RESTful HTTP API to handle ACME DNS challenges easily and securely.
pipx - Install and Run Python Applications in Isolated Environments
autocert - [mirror] Go supplementary cryptography libraries
dive - A tool for exploring each layer in a docker image
acmetool - :lock: acmetool, an automatic certificate acquisition tool for ACME (Let's Encrypt)
gophish - Open-Source Phishing Toolkit
ACL - A simple but powerful Access Control List manager
simple-scrypt - A convenience library for generating, comparing and inspecting password hashes using the scrypt KDF in Go 🔑
