How to make HTTPS?

Question

Node.js

Can anyone describe an approximate algorithm for how to implement HTTPS?

Answer 1

https://nodejs.org/api/https.html

const https = require('https');
const fs = require('fs');

const options = {
  key: fs.readFileSync('test/fixtures/keys/agent2-key.pem'),
  cert: fs.readFileSync('test/fixtures/keys/agent2-cert.pem')
};

https.createServer(options, (req, res) => {
  res.writeHead(200);
  res.end('hello world\n');
}).listen(8000);

Here is an easy way to do it. For almost all popular frameworks, there is also documentation with examples.
In the case of nodejs, I received pem keys by manually installing https://letsencrypt.org/ on the server .

Answer 2

Opens the documentation , and there ... Oh gods, there is not an exemplary algorithm, there is a specific example!

const https = require('https');
const fs = require('fs');

const options = {
  key: fs.readFileSync('path/to/keys/key.pem'),
  cert: fs.readFileSync('path/to/keys/cert.pem')
};

https.createServer(options, (req, res) => {
  res.writeHead(200);
  res.end('hello world\n');
}).listen(443);
