An openFrameworks addon for managing SSL connections.
Typically, clients, such as those in ofxHTTP and ofxSMTP work best with up-to-date CA Certificate bundles. An fairly recent example is can be found at example/bin/data/ssl/cacert.pem and shared/data/ssl/cacert.pem. For up-to-date certificates (or if you just want to generate your own for security reasons), check out this page for more info on creating your own Certificate Authority PEM (e.g. cacert.pem).
To get started, generate the example project files using the openFrameworks Project Generator. The example included in this addon does not do much. TO see the addon in action, check out the examples in ofxHTTP or ofxSMTP.
Project that use this addon should have ensure that the required certificates are included in their project data. For standard SSL communication, place a cacert.pem in the bin/data/ssl/ folder of your openFrameworks project (see the example). Alternatively, if no bin/data/ssl/cacert.pem is found, the addon will search in ofxSSLManager/shared/data/ssl/cacert.pem. To set a custom location, you can initialize a custom SSL context:
void ofApp::setup()
{
Poco::Net::Context::Ptr pContext = ... ;
// Initialize the custom SSL context.
// See https://pocoproject.org/docs/Poco.Net.Context.html
ofxSSLManager::initializeClient(pContext);
// ...
}API documentation can be found here.
