Configuration
The credentials file e.g. ~/nldns-credentials.ini should look like this:
dns_nextlayer_token=put_your_token_here

Usage
Example command
certbot certonly --authenticator dns-nextlayer --dns-nextlayer-credentials=~/nldns-credentials.ini -d nextlayer.at

Zone detection method
We've added the configuration parameter --dns-nextlayer-method to select the way our certbot plugin determines the correct zone to add the record to. Currently there are 3 options you can choose from.
intelligent
This is the default method.
It tries to determine the zone intelligently by extracting the TLD and re-adding the first level.
Examples:
* dns.nextlayer.at: nextlayer.at
* dns.nextlayer.co.at: nextlayer.co.at
* www.dns.nextlayer.co.at: nextlayer.co.at

remove-first
This method just removes the first level of the requested domain.
Examples:
* dns.nextlayer.at: nextlayer.at
* dns.nextlayer.co.at: nextlayer.co.at
* www.dns.nextlayer.co.at: dns.nextlayer.co.at

none
This method does what it's called. No magic.
Examples:
* dns.nextlayer.at: dns.nextlayer.at
* dns.nextlayer.co.at: dns.nextlayer.co.at
* www.dns.nextlayer.co.at: www.dns.nextlayer.co.at
