# Changelog
## 2025-05-01 - 7.2.0 - feat(ACME/Certificate)
Introduce certificate provider hook and observable certificate events; remove legacy ACME flow
- Extended IPortProxySettings with a new certProvider callback that allows returning a static certificate or 'http01' for ACME challenges.
- Updated Port80Handler to leverage SmartAcme's getCertificateForDomain and removed outdated methods such as getAcmeClient and processAuthorizations.
- Enhanced SmartProxy to extend EventEmitter, invoking certProvider on non-wildcard domains and re-emitting certificate events (with domain, publicKey, privateKey, expiryDate, source, and isRenewal flag).
- Updated NetworkProxyBridge to support applying external certificates via a new applyExternalCertificate method.
- Revised documentation (readme.md and readme.plan.md) to include usage examples for the new certificate provider hook.
## 2025-04-30 - 7.1.4 - fix(dependencies)
Update dependency versions in package.json

## Certificate Provider Hook & Events
You can customize how certificates are provisioned per domain by using the `certProvider` callback and listen for certificate events emitted by `SmartProxy`.
```typescript
import { SmartProxy } from '@push.rocks/smartproxy';
import * as fs from 'fs';
// Example certProvider: static for a specific domain, HTTP-01 otherwise
const certProvider = async (domain: string) => {
if (domain === 'static.example.com') {
// Load from disk or vault
return {
id: 'static-cert',
domainName: domain,
created: Date.now(),
validUntil: Date.now() + 90 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000,
privateKey: fs.readFileSync('/etc/ssl/private/static.key', 'utf8'),
publicKey: fs.readFileSync('/etc/ssl/certs/static.crt', 'utf8'),
csr: ''
};
}
// Fallback to ACME HTTP-01 challenge
return 'http01';
};
const proxy = new SmartProxy({
fromPort: 80,
toPort: 8080,
domainConfigs: [{
domains: ['static.example.com', 'dynamic.example.com'],
allowedIPs: ['*']
}],
certProvider
});
// Listen for certificate issuance or renewal
proxy.on('certificate', (evt) => {
console.log(`Certificate for ${evt.domain} ready, expires on ${evt.expiryDate}`);
});
await proxy.start();
```

- Call `super()` in constructor.

- If result is `'http01'`, register domain with `Port80Handler` for ACME challenges.
- If static cert returned, bypass `Port80Handler`, apply via `NetworkProxyBridge`
- Subscribe to `Port80HandlerEvents.CERTIFICATE_ISSUED` and `CERTIFICATE_RENEWED` and re-emit on `SmartProxy` as `'certificate'` events (include `domain`, `publicKey`, `privateKey`, `expiryDate`, `source: 'http01'`, `isRenewal` flag).
- [ ] Extend NetworkProxyBridge (ts/smartproxy/classes.pp.networkproxybridge.ts):
- [x] Extend NetworkProxyBridge (ts/smartproxy/classes.pp.networkproxybridge.ts):
- Add public method `applyExternalCertificate(data: ICertificateData): void` to forward static certs into `NetworkProxy`.
- [ ] Define `SmartProxy` `'certificate'` event interface in TypeScript and update documentation.
- [ ] Update README with usage examples showing `certProvider` callback and listening for `'certificate'` events.
