Great Tutorial.. SSL certificates expire after a certain time period like 90 days for Let's Encrypt and generate fresh certificates using AutoSSL or upon renewal. Updating the options variable and restarting the server is a pain in such case. How to update the Node.js app to automatically retrieve valid certificate files from given directories, removing needs to replace hard-coded paths and reboot.

Why ssl is need for nodejs development server?

[@tushaar9027]

Hi video good ,but can expalin cert generation using letsencrypt

[@daxxramas7974]

Hello sir, I am working on a school project for an Android application. For the backend side of things, I created an express rest api (it does not serve any Web page). I am looking for a way to secure communications between m'y Android app and my express server with an ssl certificate. Would self signed certificates be a problem for this use case ? Since I do not need to access the api through a Web browser, i'm guessing i Would never see this browser warning for invalid certificate right ? Do i need to apply further workaround for communication between my Android app and the server, or between postman and the server ? I have not tried your method as of yet, but thank you for your clear explanation, it seems so simple and straight forward thanks to you. Cheers

[@mafiacodes]

It won’t be a problem you can use the method as described in this video

Is there a disadvantage of using this local certificate other than the browser not trusting it? For context: Let's say there is a website that would be only be used by a small number of people and they know what is going on the server side and so they have no problem trusting that certificate. In this case, it would be fine to use that right? Now that I wrote this down I remembered that somehow custom certificates can be added to the browser to be trusted, to handle that as an exception of unknown authors. I think there is something like that.

[@mafiacodes]

It is a absolutely 100% fine using this certificate for the use case you defined. And as far as trusting goes may be u can add this as a trusted certificate as u mentioned but I am unaware of it.

KZbin use Media source API to do this and is quite difficult to implement, instead you use some protocole which do the hard work for you on server side like hls, hds, dash and for the client android have already implement these protocol so you just need to use exoplayer api

Certificate is most likely the pem file, private key is the key file and other file is just a certificate signing request, so use the pem as certificate and key as private key. Do let me know if all works fine.

sir this is not a valid certificate i works on service workers which only works in https context i do a same as u do but same the errors comes https requires for service workers so sir how to install a valid ssl certificate for node js local development purpose

[@mafiacodes]

It’s 💯% valid certificate, it’s only that chrome or other browser does not recognise the certificate authority. You can use it for Dev purposes.

[@thesrinathkamath]

how to listen to ssl renewal and serve automatically?

[@mafiacodes]

This is a manually generated ssl, so u need to do a cron job and then issue the command again

[@thesrinathkamath]

@@mafiacodes But can't it be handled inside the node-server? with SNICallbacks? or TLS

[@mafiacodes]

It can be done but since it’s a development certificate so you can generate it for as long as you want even 10years or even more, for a production SSL you should get a certificate from a certificate authority and then definitely you can handle auto renewals using the said callbacks or even create a cron for the same.
