Using certbot with Namecheap and AWS EC2 instance

Hello, I am following the official instructions to use certbot on Ubuntu 20.04. I would like to activate automatic wildcard renewal for my domain, which I bought on Namecheap. I am not using their hosting solutions though, and am instead using an AWS EC2 instance. What certbot plugin do I need to install? The official support list does not include Namecheap, and I couldn't find a definitive answer by doing some searches online. Thank you.


Domain: *.malonicstudios.com
Web Server: Apache 2.4.41
Web Server OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Hosting provider: AWS (EC2 Instance)
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): yes
I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): no
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot): certbot --version 1.15.0

acme.sh offers a NameCheap plugin for the acme.sh ACME client. Maybe you could modify that script so it can be used as a --manual-auth-hook and --manual-cleanup-hook?

Other options are using acme-dns in combination with one of the following:
