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.

a2conf
With the help of the library, you can manage the configs of the virtual hosts of the apache web server. For example, you can get a list of virtual hosts, or install a certificate on a virtual host. Under the hood, a2conf works with configs using the Augeas library.
I will briefly describe how it works. The main work is performed by a server agent (https://github.com/r2dtools/agent), which is installed on the server. After installing the agent, you can register it in your account.
The agent will find virtual hosts of a web server and after that you will be able to secure your site with a certificate. The agent can issue a Let's Encrypt certificate, or you can upload your own certificate (with the .pem extension). The agent will configure the web server configs and install the certificate. The functionality is very similar to the functionality of the certbot (https://github.com/certbot/certbot), but the service allows you to secure the site through the UI in a few clicks. Currently, only apache web server is supported.
During creating the agent, I wrote a library for working with the apache web server configs (https://github.com/r2dtools/a2conf). I took the similar functionality of certbot library as a basis and implemented it using golang.
