This project is intended to be used during development only to easily create certificates signed by a custom certificate authority. The aim is to lower the bar of using HTTPS in development, so it will be more accessible to anyone. The main focus is to provide an easy way to create certificates to be used in all major browsers, Android and iOS emulators. We will try to provide detailed instructions for most Linux flavours, and OSX. Unfortunately, Windows Phone emulators and Windows machines are out of scope at the moment; feel free to create a pull request to remedy this shortcoming.
First clone the project and create the root certificate.
cd /etcsudo git clone https://github.com/onepesu/easyCA.gitcd easyCAsudo make ca/certs/ca.crt
This needs to be done only once.
Then proceed by creating a certificate for each different server you would like to use. The first time you'll try to create a certificate, a key for your host will be created as well.
sudo make servers/certs/<server_name>.crt
Please follow the wiki instructions for your OS/server/browser combination
