## Optional container environment variables for custom configuration.
* `ACME_CA_URI` - Directory URI for the CA ACME API endpoint (defaults to ``https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory``).
If you set this environment variable value to `https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory` the container will obtain its certificates from Let's Encrypt test API endpoint that don't have the [5 certs/week/domain limit](https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/) (but are not trusted by browsers).
For example
```bash
$ docker run --detach \
--name nginx-proxy-acme \
--volumes-from nginx-proxy \
--volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro \
--volume certs:/etc/nginx/certs:rw \
--volume acme:/etc/acme.sh \
--env "ACME_CA_URI=https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory" \
nginxproxy/acme-companion
```
You can also create test certificates per container (see [Test certificates](./Let's-Encrypt-and-ACME.md#test-certificates))
* `DEBUG` - Set it to `1` to enable debugging of the entrypoint script and generation of LetsEncrypt certificates, which could help you pin point any configuration issues.
* `RENEW_PRIVATE_KEYS` - Set it to `false` to make `acme.sh` reuse previously generated private key for each certificate instead of creating a new one on certificate renewal. Reusing private keys can help if you intend to use [HPKP](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Public_Key_Pinning), but please note that HPKP has been deprecated by Google's Chrome and that it is therefore strongly discouraged to use it at all.
* `DHPARAM_BITS` - Change the key size of the RFC7919 Diffie-Hellman group used by the container from the default value of 4096 bits. Supported values are `2048`, `3072` and `4096`. The DH group file will be located in the container at `/etc/nginx/certs/dhparam.pem`. Mounting a different `dhparam.pem` file at that location will override the RFC7919 group creation by the acme-companion container. **COMPATIBILITY WARNING**: some older clients (like Java 6 and 7) do not support DH keys with over 1024 bits. In order to support these clients, you must provide your own `dhparam.pem`.
* `DHPARAM_SKIP` - Set it to `true` to disable the Diffie-Hellman group creation by the container entirely.
* `CA_BUNDLE` - This is a test only variable [for use with Pebble](https://github.com/letsencrypt/pebble#avoiding-client-https-errors). It changes the trusted root CA used by `acme.sh`, from the default Alpine trust store to the CA bundle file located at the provided path (inside the container). Do **not** use it in production unless you are running your own ACME CA.
* `CERTS_UPDATE_INTERVAL` - 3600 seconds by default, this defines how often the container will check if the certificates require update.
* `ACME_PRE_HOOK` - The provided command will be run before every certificate issuance. The action is limited to the commands available inside the **acme-companion** container. For example `--env "ACME_PRE_HOOK=echo 'start'"`. For more information see [Pre- and Post-Hook](./Hooks.md)
* `ACME_POST_HOOK` - The provided command will be run after every certificate issuance. The action is limited to the commands available inside the **acme-companion** container. For example `--env "ACME_POST_HOOK=echo 'end'"`. For more information see [Pre- and Post-Hook](./Hooks.md)
