This is a simple shell script utility that uses OpenSSL to generate self signed certificates. These certificates are intended purely for development purposes.

Installation

Ensure you have OpenSSL installed. Simply run

brew install openssl

on MacOS. Checkout this repository and symlink ./bin/selfsign using

ln -nfs /usr/local/bin/selfsign <your_path>/selfsign/bin/selfsign

Usage

For usage information run

selfsign --help

To generate a certificate run

selfsign mysitename.localhost --out /path/to/output

This will generate three files in the given path:

• mysitename.localhost.csr
• mysitename.localhost.cer
• mysitename.localhost.key
