Clearnet App for HTTPS Support

Ment to help advanced users to gain what is described at "Advanced Resolutions" chapter of My Device has a Lightning Network Error.

Target is in addition to enable publishing Apps to Clearnet as described in Easy switch Tor - clearnet for bundle nodes - BOLT.FUN.mhtml by Darthcoin (on above link download with Right-Click and Save Link As)

Usage

• sudo touch /mnt/hdd/mynode/certbot/certbot_dry_run

then run

• sudo bash -c 'bash /home/admin/mynode_sdk/clearnet/scripts/install_clearnet.sh' edit
• sudo nano /mnt/hdd/mynode/clearnet/https_domain
• sudo nano /mnt/hdd/mynode/clearnet/https_domain_contact
• sudo nano /mnt/hdd/mynode/clearnet/https_hosts

re-run

• sudo bash -c 'bash /home/admin/mynode_sdk/clearnet/scripts/install_clearnet.sh'

Fix your DNS, network forwarding, dynamicdns and then

• re-rerun sudo bash -c 'bash /home/admin/mynode_sdk/clearnet/scripts/install_clearnet.sh'

When looks good

• rm /mnt/hdd/mynode/certbot/certbot_dry_run
• /usr/share/mynode_apps/clearnet/scripts/install_clearnet.sh

Enjoy!

When looks good -rm /mnt/hdd/mynode/certbot/certbot_dry_run -/usr/share/mynode_apps/clearnet/scripts/install_clearnet.sh

Enjoy!

✅ Completed Implementation

🔧 Install Script (clearnet_install.sh)

• Defines dynamic environment variables for app, data, and backup paths
• Creates working directories and ensures safe permissions
• Installs required packages (certbot, python3-certbot, python3-certbot-nginx) only if missing
• Migrates /etc/letsencrypt to MyNode disk:
• Creates .org and timestamped .tgz backups
• Moves original directory and replaces with symlink
• Reads domain from https_domain file
• Creates symlinks for: node..crt → fullchain.pem node..key → privkey.pem Aborts if symlinks already exist

🧹 Uninstall Script (clearnet_uninstall.sh)

• Backs up current /etc/letsencrypt before removal
• Removes cert symlinks based on domain file
• Restores original /etc/letsencrypt from .org backup
• Deletes app directories (/opt/mynode/clearnet, $APP_DATADIR)
• Purges certbot-related packages if installed

🧾 Logging & Safety

• All actions logged with [INFO], [SKIP], or [ERROR]
• Aborts on unexpected conditions to prevent data loss
• Assumes root execution, avoids sudo

🧩 MyNode Community App by MyNode SDK (clearnet.json)

• App metadata defined for MyNode UI and SDK
• App tile and homepage visibility enabled
• Custom app page with instructions for:
• DNS setup
• Router configuration
• Certificate management
• UI button links to /app/clearnet/info
• App marked as uninstallable and reinstallable
• SDK version: 2, app type: custom

🧩 TODOs for Full Certbot Integration & UI

🔐 Certificate Automation

• Add certbot command to request initial certificate: bash certbot --nginx --extend -d node. --non-interactive --agree-tos --email <admin_email>
• Validate domain and hosts DNS resolution and uses port http 18080 forwarding with ngnix
• certbot has systemd timer for renews
• Add renewal hook to refresh symlinks or reload services
• /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/https_public.conf must be placed to after certs are applied / install run
• /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/https_public.conf must be removed and nginx restarted before uninstall

🖥️ MyNode Community App UI

• Create clearnet.service for UI launch/status
• Build web UI to:
• Display current domain and cert status
• Trigger cert renewal manually
• Show logs and backup status
