+# Deploy-hook to very simply copy files to set directories and then
+# execute whatever reloadcmd the admin needs afterwards. This can be
+# useful for configurations where the "multideploy" hook (in development)
+# is used or when an admin wants ACME.SH to renew certs but needs to
+# manually configure deployment via an external script
+# (e.g. The deploy-freenas script for TrueNAS Core/Scale
+# https://github.com/danb35/deploy-freenas/ )
+#
+#
+# Environment variables to be utilized are as follows:
+#
+# DEPLOY_LOCALCOPY_CERTIFICATE - /path/to/target/cert.cer
+# DEPLOY_LOCALCOPY_CERTKEY - /path/to/target/cert.key
+# DEPLOY_LOCALCOPY_FULLCHAIN - /path/to/target/fullchain.cer
+# DEPLOY_LOCALCOPY_CA - /path/to/target/ca.cer
+# DEPLOY_LOCALCOPY_RELOADCMD - "echo 'this is my cmd'"
