Installation

npm install @rushstack/debug-certificate-manager --save-dev

Overview

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.
