@rushstack/debug-certificate-manager
Advanced tools
Cross-platform functionality to create debug ssl certificates.
npm install @rushstack/debug-certificate-manager --save-dev
This library contains utilities for managing debug certificates in a development server environment. It provides functions to generate, self-sign, trust, and untrust .pem certificates for both Windows and Mac OS. It will also generate self-signed certificates on other OS's, but the user must manually trust and untrust them.
CertificateStore
The CertificateStore
class provides accessors and mutators for the debug certificate data stored in .rushstack
.
Retrive certificate data from the store:
const certificateStore: CertificateStore = new CertificateStore();
return {
pemCertificate: certificateStore.certificateData,
pemKey: certificateStore.keyData
};
Set data using the same property names certificateData: string | undefined
and keyData: string | undefined
.
ensureCertificate
Get a development certificate from the store, or optionally, generate a new one and trust it if one does not exist in the store. Returns a certificate object following the ICertificate
interface.
export interface ICertificate {
pemCertificate: string | undefined;
pemKey: string | undefined;
}
untrustCertificate
Attempts to locate a previously generated debug certificate and untrust it. Returns a boolean
value to denote success.
@rushstack/debug-certificate-manager is part of the Rush Stack family of projects.
