API Documentation

All of these functions will throw an error if something is invalid, except the isValid functions, which will return true or false.

Validate SSL

const { validateSSL } = require('ssl-validator');

await validateSSL(cert, options);

Option	Type	Default	Description
skipDateValidation	Boolean	false	Skip verifying the certificate's and/or bundle's validity period.
key	String		When given, validates that the key and certificate are a pair.
domain	String		When given, verifies the certificate is valid for this domain. e.g. 'github.com'
bundle	String		When given, verifies the certificate bundle and certificate go together.

Validate SSL Cert

This function validates that the certificate is an SSL certificate and checks the validity period.

const { validateSSLCert } = require('ssl-validator');

await validateSSLCert(cert, options);

Option	Type	Default	Description
skipDateValidation	Boolean	false	Skip verifying the given certificate's validity period.

Validate SSL Key

This function validates that the certificate is an SSL certificate and checks the validity period.

const { validateSSLKey } = require('ssl-validator');

await validateSSLKey(key);

Validate Cert Bundle

This function validates that the certificate and the bundle are certificates, and ensures that the bundle and certificate go together.

const { validateCertBundle } = require('ssl-validator');

await validateCertBundle(cert, bundle, options);

Option	Type	Default	Description
skipDateValidation	Boolean	false	Skip verifying the certificate's and bundle's validity period.

Validate Cert Key Pair

This function validates that the given certificate and key are a matching pair.

const { validateCertKeyPair } = require('ssl-validator');

await validateCertKeyPair(cert, key, options);

Option	Type	Default	Description
skipDateValidation	Boolean	false	Skip verifying the given certificate's validity period.

Validate Cert To Domain

This function validates the given certificate and that it matches the given domain.

const { validateCertToDomain } = require('ssl-validator');

await validateCertToDomain(cert, domain, options);

Option	Type	Default	Description
skipDateValidation	Boolean	false	Skip verifying the given certificate's validity period.

IsValid Functions

Each of the functions listed above (validateSSL, validateSSLCert, etc.) has a counterpart that will not throw any errors but will return true when valid and false when not valid. All arguments and options are listed above are valid.

Original Function Name	Predicate Function Name
validateSSL	isValidSSL
validateSSLCert	isValidSSLCert
validateSSLKey	isValidSSLKey
validateCertBundle	isValidCertBundle
validateCertKeyPair	isValidCertKeyPair
validateCertToDomain	isValidCertToDomain

const { isValidSSL } = require('ssl-validator');

if (!(await isValidSSL(cert))) {
  return { message: 'Sorry, the certificate supplied is not valid.' };
}
