In some cases, you may not wish to use Hoverfly's default SSL certificate. Hoverfly allows you to generate a new certificate and key.
The following command will start a Hoverfly process and create new cert.pem and key.pem
files in the current working directory. These newly-created files will be loaded into the
running Hoverfly instance.
.. literalinclude:: hoverfly-generate-ca.sh :language: sh
Optionally, you can provide a custom certificate name and authority:
.. literalinclude:: hoverfly-generate-ca-custom-name.sh :language: sh
Once you have generated cert.pem and key.pem files with Hoverfly, you can use hoverctl
to start an instance of Hoverfly using these files.
.. literalinclude:: hoverctl-start-with-custom-cert.sh :language: sh
Note
Both a certificate and a key file must be supplied. The files must be in unencrypted PEM format.
