## Installation
Install with npm
npm install pem
## Examples
Here are some examples for creating an SSL key/cert on the fly, and running an HTTPS server on port 443. 443 is the standard HTTPS port, but requires root permissions on most systems. To get around this, you could use a higher port number, like 4300, and use https://localhost:4300 to access your server.
### Basic https
```javascript
var https = require('https')
var pem = require('pem')
pem.createCertificate({ days: 1, selfSigned: true }, function (err, keys) {
if (err) {
throw err
}
https.createServer({ key: keys.serviceKey, cert: keys.certificate }, function (req, res) {
res.end('o hai!')
}).listen(443)
})
```
### Express
```javascript
var https = require('https')
var pem = require('pem')
var express = require('express')
pem.createCertificate({ days: 1, selfSigned: true }, function (err, keys) {
if (err) {
throw err
}
var app = express()
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.send('o hai!')
})
https.createServer({ key: keys.serviceKey, cert: keys.certificate }, app).listen(443)
})
```
## API
Please have a look into the [API documentation](https://www.deineagentur.com/projects/pem/index.html).

### Custom extensions config file
You can specify custom OpenSSL extensions using the `config` or `extFile` options for `createCertificate` (or using `csrConfigFile` with `createCSR`).
`extFile` and `csrConfigFile` should be paths to the extension files. While `config` will generate a temporary file from the supplied file contents.
If you specify `config` then the `v3_req` section of your config file will be used.
The following would be an example of a Certificate Authority extensions file:
[req]
req_extensions = v3_req
distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
[req_distinguished_name]
commonName = Common Name
commonName_max = 64
[v3_req]
basicConstraints = critical,CA:TRUE
While the following would specify subjectAltNames in the resulting certificate:
[req]
req_extensions = v3_req
[ v3_req ]
basicConstraints = CA:FALSE
keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature, keyEncipherment
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[alt_names]
DNS.1 = host1.example.com
DNS.2 = host2.example.com
DNS.3 = host3.example.com
Note that `createCertificate` and `createCSR` supports the `altNames` option which would be easier to use in most cases.
**Warning: If you specify `altNames` the custom extensions file will not be passed to OpenSSL.**
### Setting openssl location
In some systems the `openssl` executable might not be available by the default name or it is not included in $PATH. In this case you can define the location of the executable yourself as a one time action after you have loaded the pem module:
```javascript
var pem = require('pem')
pem.config({
pathOpenSSL: '/usr/local/bin/openssl'
})
// do something with the pem module
```
