Simplest command to expand certificate

Question

I am not using certbot, only letsencrypt command, and this other question/answer is so complex to something so simple: use --expand in a letsencrypt command.

The question here: how to use --expand, what the correct syntax?
there are no example in the guide.

---

Supposing that domain1 is the main domain, and domain2 and domain3 was created with the initial command,
letsencrypt --apache -d domanin1 -d www.domanin1 -d wiki.domanin1 -d domanin2 -d www.domanin2 -d domanin3

... What the correct syntax to add a domain4? 1, 2 ... or 5?

1. letsencrypt --apache --expand domanin4
2. letsencrypt --apache --expand -d domanin4
3. letsencrypt --expand -d domanin4
4. letsencrypt --apache --expand -d domanin1 -d domanin4
5. letsencrypt --apache --expand -d domanin1 -d www.domanin1 -d wiki.domanin1 -d domanin2 -d www.domanin2 -d domanin3 -d domain4

PS: need to repeat all domains and subdomains in the expansion?

Answer 1

This question will have no answer... Because letsencrypt is no longer developed (!), if you using: you using something junk.

certbot is the more recent version of letsencrypt (there was a change of name)

(see community.letsencrypt.org/24474)

So, the remain question is "how to do an --expand equivalent with certbot?" Because:

--expand is a certbot option that we haven't implemented/don't support. (...) However, we have a --hooks option which has similar functionality.

(see letsencrypt-cli/issues)

So, as the question request, simplest certbot --hooks command to expand certificate?

PS: somebody say that it is impossible!
