Get the Configured Server-Side TLS Certificate

Demonstrates Socket.GetMyServerCert, which copies the TLS server certificate configured by InitSslServer into a Cert object.

The file path is relative to the application's current working directory. An absolute path may also be used. Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.

Background. This is intended for a socket acting as a TLS server and returns false when no server certificate has been configured.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

var socket = new CkSocket();

//  The file path is relative to the application's current working directory.  An absolute path
//  may also be used.  Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.
//  The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
var pfxPassword = "myPfxPassword";
var cert = new CkCert();
success = cert.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/server.pfx",pfxPassword);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(cert.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = socket.InitSslServer(cert);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Copy the TLS server certificate configured by InitSslServer, then inspect it.
var myCert = new CkCert();
success = socket.GetMyServerCert(myCert);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("Server certificate subject: " + myCert.SubjectCN);
