Quick way to make a ssl directory and execute a script to make self signed certs in it

Quick self signed ssl creator

This repo is intended to be pulled into the root directory of a project and added to the .gitignore of the parent project.

git clone https://github.com/natelewis/ssl.git
cd ssl
makeCert.sh www.thethingimtesting.com

The end result is you will have a ssl directory in your project with a cert.pem and key.pem.

ssl/cert.pem
ssl/key.pem

Also if you controlled the client and the server, you can use the root certificates also generated to create a warning free conversation.
