## Usage
Use TypeScript for best in class instellisense.
```javascript
import { SmartAcme } from 'smartacme'
let smac = new SmartAcme()
(async () => { // learn async/await, it'll make your life easier
// optionally accepts a filePath Arg with a stored acmeaccount.json
// will create an account and
let myAccount = await smac.createAcmeAccount()
// will return a dnsHash to set in your DNS record
let myCert = await myAccount.createAcmeCert('example.com')
// gets and accepts the specified challenge
// first argument optional, defaults to dns-01 (which is the cleanest method for production use)
let myChallenge = await myCert.getChallenge('dns-01')
/* ----------
Now you need to set the challenge in your DNS
myChallenge.domainNamePrefixed is the address for the record
myChallenge.dnsKeyHash is the ready to use txt record value expected by letsencrypt
-------------*/
})()
```
