Renew Script with if and email

[pfg]

There are a number of options. 0.5.0 introduced hooks which are called when certificates are renewed:

@bmw

The flags --pre-hook, --post-hook, and --renew-hook which can be usedwith the renew subcommand to register shell commands to run inresponse to renewal events. Pre-hook commands will be run beforeany certs are renewed, post-hook commands will be run after any certs are renewed, and renew-hook commands will be run after eachcert is renewed. If no certs are due for renewal, no command is run.

You could also inspect the output of of the renew run and use that to determine your action. For example:

OUT=$(/path/to/letsencrypt-auto renew)
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
	if grep -q "Congratulations!" <<<$OUT; then
		# certificates renewed successfully
	else
		# certificates not due for renewal
	fi
else
	# error during renewal
fi
