I update it manually using this command
sudo systemctl stop nginx
url="my_domain123.com"
sudo certbot certonly --standalone -d $url -d www.$url --email main@$url
sudo systemctl start nginx
This works fine, but it’s manual. If I create a bash script with this code and a cron task which I’ll call once in [80…89] days, will it work as I expect? With no hidden issues?
Note: this works fine when doing it manually - by hands. I only want to automate it using cron, in a simple way, without overcomlecating it.
