syswide-cas

Enable node to use custom certificate authorities in conjunction with the bundled root CAs.

Node does not support system-wide installed trusted certificate authorities. It is only possible to specify a custom CA via the ca option in the tls and https modules, or fallback to using the bundled list of root CAs that node is compiled with.

This module enables loading custom CAs located in the file /etc/ssl/ca-node.pem in conjunction with the node bundled root CAs.

Installation

npm install --save syswide-cas

Usage

Add require('syswide-cas') as soon as possible as it affects all later TLS calls.

// "require('syswide-cas')" immediatley loads CAs from the file /etc/ssl/ca-node.pem if it exists
const syswidecas = require('syswide-cas');

// optionally load all files from a custom directory
syswidecas.addCAs('/my/custom/path/to/certs/dir');

// or multiple directories
syswidecas.addCAs(['/my/custom/path/to/certs/dir1', '/my/other/path/to/certs/dir2']);

// optionally load a file directly
syswidecas.addCAs('/my/custom/path/to/cert.pem');

// or multiple files
syswidecas.addCAs(['/my/custom/path/to/cert1.pem', '/my/other/path/to/cert2.pem']);


const https = require('https');
https.get('https://my.custom.domain.com/with/self/signed/cert');
