It's always a pain in the ass to install certbot for cloudflare

[Nottt]

I have a script that install certbot for cloudflare with pip3. Everytime I run it there is a issue with some random package that i have to fix and break my automatic installation.

Installing from snap store? Well it succeed but I can't find the executable anywhere to call it...

Can we get at least a requeriments.txt for it so I can have it on my script and trust that it will really be installed?

pip3 install --upgrade --force-reinstall certbot-dns-cloudflare doesn't work

Hi @Nottt,

Sorry to hear that. I think we have tried to address all of the problems you're hitting via the instructions on https://certbot.eff.org/instructions.

Are you the author of that install script or did you find it somewhere?

It sounds like you might be installing these packages globally, which attracts a chance of conflicting with OS packages.

Instead, the Certbot pip instructions instruct you to use a virtual environment, which isolates dependencies in a reliable way.

I think this question is probably answered by the Certbot snap instructions, step 6 in particular.
