Addition task after Renew Domain by letsencrypt

How can I renew only when certificate is about to expire in 5 days, and I also want to run couple of other commands if certificate renewed successfully. The commands I want to run are:

pm2 restart 0
asterisk -rx "reload http"

  • Create a shell script file renew_cert.sh and grant the permission to execute the shell script

    touch /var/www/renew_cert.sh
    chmod 777 /var/www/renew_cert.sh
    

    In your favorite editor nano /var/www/renew_cert.sh edit file and write the following content

    #!/bin/bash
    
    # Define domain and certificate paths
    DOMAIN="subdomain.example.com"
    CERT_PATH="/etc/letsencrypt/live/$DOMAIN/fullchain.pem"
    
    
    # Get the number of remaining days before expiry
    REMAINING_DAYS=$(openssl x509 -enddate -noout -in $CERT_PATH | sed 's/.*=\(.*\)/\1/' | xargs -I {} date -d {} +%s)
    CURRENT_DATE=$(date +%s)
    DAYS_LEFT=$(( ($REMAINING_DAYS - $CURRENT_DATE) / 86400 ))
    
    # Check if remaining days is less than 5
    if [ $DAYS_LEFT -lt 5 ]; then
      echo "Certificate is about to expire in $DAYS_LEFT days. Renewing..."
    
      # Renew certificate using certbot
      certbot renew
    
      # Check if renewal was successful
      if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
        echo "SSL certificate renewed successfully."
    
        # Restart pm2 application with ID 0
        echo "Restart pm2 application with ID 0"
        pm2 restart 0
    
        # Reload HTTP configuration in Asterisk
        echo "Reload HTTP configuration in Asterisk"
        asterisk -rx 'reload http'
    
      else
        echo "Certbot renewal failed. Please check your Certbot logs."
      fi
    else
      echo "SSL certificate is valid for more than 5 days. No renewal needed."
    fi
    

    add the script to your cronjob of your OS
