acme.sh: Issue a certificate using a working Nginx configuration.
$ acme.sh --issue --nginx --domain ${example-com}
try on your machine

This command is using the acme.sh client to issue a certificate from Let's Encrypt for the Nginx web server, for the specified domain.

Explaining the options used in the command:

  • acme.sh: This is the command itself, which invokes the ACME client.
  • --issue: This option tells the client to issue a new certificate.
  • --nginx: This option specifies that the certificate will be used with the Nginx web server.
  • --domain ${example-com}: This option specifies the domain for which the certificate is being issued. In this case, ${example-com} is likely a placeholder for the actual domain name. So, you should replace it with the domain you want to issue the certificate for. Make sure to remove the ${} characters as well.

Overall, this command is used to request a Let's Encrypt certificate for a domain and configure it for use with Nginx.
