[matrix](mod/notification-matrix.md) and/or
[telegram](mod/notification-telegram.md).

For automatic download and renewal of certificates you need configuration
in `global-config-overlay`, these are the parameters:
* `CertRenewPass`: an array of passphrases to try
* `CertRenewUrl`: the url to download certificates from
Certificates on the web server should be named `CN.pem` (`PEM` format) or
`CN.p12` (`PKCS#12` format).
Usage and invocation
--------------------
Just run the script:
/system/script/run check-certificates;
2020-03-27 20:41:18 +00:00
... or create a scheduler for periodic execution:
/system/scheduler/add interval=1d name=check-certificates on-event="/system/script/run check-certificates;" start-time=startup;
2020-03-27 20:41:18 +00:00
Alternatively running on startup may be desired:
/system/scheduler/add name=check-certificates-startup on-event="/system/script/run check-certificates;" start-time=startup;
