yomimono / ocaml-certify

Small command-line tools for making certificates with OCaml x509/nocrypto toolstack.

About

A very small utility for common certificate operations using ocaml-x509 and ocaml-nocrypto for key generation. Intended as a (non-drop-in) replacement for these uses of the command-line openssl utility.

Install

certify is now available in opam, a free source-based package manager for OCaml. You can install certify via opam with opam install certify.

Outside of opam:

git clone https://github.com/yomimono/ocaml-certify
dune build

The certify binary will be in _build/default/install/bin, and you can install it wherever you like, or just use it in place.

Running

For help, try certify selfsign --help, certify sign --help, or certify csr --help.

• certify selfsign produces a private key and self-signed certificate
• certify sign takes a certificate signing request, and a CA (key and certificate), and produces a certificate
• certify csr produces a private key and a certificate signing request

Tests

Simple openssl interoperability tests are in tests/test.sh.
