I’ve been looking for documentation for how to set up SSL encryption using certs for Node-Red. I have HA installed in a docker environment but the. commands for openSSL aren’t working
Get a cert. Put it in a path the container has access to on the host. Enable certs in node red config.
If you’re self signing certs, they won’t be accepted anyway, unless you import the certs to your browsers. This is a lot of work for very little benefit.
Are you wanting local SSL on node-red?
hey m0e.
I was thinking either self signed or get a freebie one online. I typically only use a single PC so the importing of the cert isn’t a big deal. But a better way is with LE i’d gather.
I was checking out this article
But wondered if there is a CLI way to do it. I need to also make sure I don’t lock myself out.
Use Let’s Encrypt on the CLI?
For Node Red to use it, you need to have the cert available to the container. Bind mount a volume (directory on your host) to your docker container, and configure that path in the settings file for node red.
