Registering certificate bundles in Node.js

The default trust stores for Node.js include the certificates needed to access AWS services. In some cases, it might be preferable to include only a specific set of certificates.

In this example, a specific certificate on disk is used to create an https.Agent that rejects connections unless the designated certificate is provided. The newly created https.Agent is then used by the DynamoDB client.

const fs = require("fs"); 
const https = require("https");
const { DynamoDBClient } = require("@aws-sdk/client-dynamodb");

const certs = [
  fs.readFileSync("/path/to/cert.pem")
];
    
const dynamodbClient = new DynamoDBClient({
  httpOptions: {
    agent: new https.Agent({
      rejectUnauthorized: true,
      ca: certs
    })
  }
});
