How do I use let's encrypt with gitlab?

I started to look in to ssl certificates when I stumbled upon let’s encrypt, and I wanted to use it with gitlab, however being that it is running on a raspberry pi 2 and its running quite perfectly now (so I dont want to mess anything up), he would I go about installing a lets encrypt ssl certificate properly?
