+ | # Set Up HTTPS |
+ | |
+ | LubeLogger runs on Kestrel, which is a cross-platform standalone web server provided by .NET |
+ | |
+ | If you're running LubeLogger behind a reverse proxy(i.e. NGINX), then this walkthrough does not apply to you since the SSL certs will be served up by NGINX instead of Kestrel. |
+ | |
+ | This article covers the step-by-step process to set up HTTPS for a LubeLogger instance. |
+ | |
+ | ## Docker |
+ | If you're running LubeLogger on a Docker instance, first read [this article by Microsoft](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/docker-compose-https?view=aspnetcore-8.0) |
+ | |
+ | 1. Convert the .PEM / .CRT files into .PFX, read [this StackOverflow post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/808669/convert-a-cert-pem-certificate-to-a-pfx-certificate) |
+ | 2. Open and modify the .env file and add the following lines(note that in this example I used bob as the password for the cert) |
+ | ``` |
+ | ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Password=bob |
+ | ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Path=/https/<yourPFXCertificateName>.pfx |
+ | ASPNETCORE_URLS=https://+:443;http://+:80 |
+ | ``` |
+ | 3. Open and modify docker-compose.yml. You will need to bind a new volume to the Docker container so that Kestrel can access the certificate file. |
+ | ``` |
+ | volumes: |
+ | - ~/https/:/https:ro |
+ | ``` |
+ | 4. Run `docker-compose up -d` to start up the container and https://localhost will now have a valid cert. |
+ | |
+ | ## Windows |
+ | If you're running LubeLogger as the standalone Windows executable, first read [this article by Microsoft](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/servers/kestrel/endpoints?view=aspnetcore-8.0#configure-https-in-appsettingsjson) |
+ | |
+ | 1. Convert the .PEM / .CRT files into .PFX, read [this StackOverflow post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/808669/convert-a-cert-pem-certificate-to-a-pfx-certificate) |
+ | 2. Open and modify appsettings.json located in the same directory as the CarCareTracker executable and add the following lines(note that in this example I used bob as the password for the cert) |
+ | ``` |
+ | "Kestrel": { |
+ | "Endpoints": { |
+ | "Http": { |
+ | "Url": "http://localhost:80" |
+ | }, |
+ | "HttpsInlineCertFile": { |
+ | "Url": "https://localhost:443", |
+ | "Certificate": { |
+ | "Path": "<path to .pfx file>", |
+ | "Password": "bob" |
+ | } |
+ | } |
+ | } |
+ | ``` |
+ | 3. Restart the app and https://localhost will now have a valid cert. |
