cert-manager

cert-manager adds certificates and certificate issuers as resource types in Kubernetes clusters, and simplifies the process of obtaining, renewing and using those certificates.

It can issue certificates from a variety of supported sources, including Let's Encrypt, HashiCorp Vault, and Venafi as well as private PKI, and it ensures certificates remain valid and up to date, attempting to renew certificates at an appropriate time before expiry.

It is loosely based upon the work of kube-lego and has borrowed some wisdom from other similar projects such as kube-cert-manager.

Importing cert-manager as a Module

⚠️ Please note that cert-manager does not currently provide a Go module compatibility guarantee. That means that most code under pkg/ is subject to change in a breaking way, even between minor or patch releases and even if the code is currently publicly exported.

The lack of a Go module compatibility guarantee does not affect API version guarantees under the Kubernetes Deprecation Policy.

For more details see Importing cert-manager in Go on the cert-manager website.

The import path for cert-manager versions 1.8 and later is github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager.

For all versions of cert-manager before 1.8, including minor and patch releases, the import path is github.com/jetstack/cert-manager.

Security Reporting

Security is the number one priority for cert-manager. If you think you've found a security vulnerability, we'd love to hear from you.

Follow the instructions in SECURITY.md to make a report.

Changelog

Every release on GitHub has a changelog, and we also publish release notes on the website.
