Any ideas on how to get this to use https? Having trouble finding the right settings.js

[skaboy71]

I used openssl to create a self signed cert on the jail.

I edited the settings.js file at /usr/local/lib/node_modules/node-red .

per the instructions here: http://www.steves-internet-guide.com/securing-node-red-ssl/

I restarted the jail but it's still only listening on http.

@skaboy71 -- wow 🤦 I'm really sorry I missed your issue.

Unfortunately I don't have any advise to offer on this.

Good news might be this plugin is just a simple npm install. There is nothing I'm aware of that should prevent this from working just because it's a "plugin"

@skaboy71 I made it work!
So first you need to change the file /var/db/nodered/settings.js
Then you need to put the full path in the .pem files
For example I have:

    https: {
        key: fs.readFileSync('/var/db/nodered/node-key.pem'),
        cert: fs.readFileSync('/var/db/nodered/node-cert.pem')
    },

I haven't try yet for the others password and so on.
If you need help let's talk here.

--- Edit: this also work

    https: {
        key: fs.readFileSync(__dirname + "/node-key.pem"),
        cert: fs.readFileSync(__dirname + "/node-cert.pem")
    },
