Mandatory SSL

This script must be used with a certificate in order to work so, you need to generate one:

Open Powershell as admin and enter the command below

$cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -Subject "localhost" -TextExtension @("2.5.29.17={text}DNS=localhost&IPAddress=127.0.0.1") -CertStoreLocation cert:\LocalMachine\My 
$pwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "httpfileserver" -Force -AsPlainText
Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -FilePath $env:userprofile\downloads\cert.pfx -Password $pwd

Convert the .pfx file to a .pem extension using

openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pfx -out cert.pem -nodes

After converting the certificate move it to the same directory as the script then run

python https-file-server.py
