How to use HTTPS on Node.js using Express/Socket.io

Question

Im trying to run my node server with https. I\'m using express and socket.io.

This is my code for https:

var httpsPort = 443;
var privateKey = fs.rea         


        

Answer 1

This is how I managed to set it up with express:

var fs = require( 'fs' );
var app = require('express')();
var https        = require('https');
var server = https.createServer({
    key: fs.readFileSync('./test_key.key'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('./test_cert.crt'),
    ca: fs.readFileSync('./test_ca.crt'),
    requestCert: false,
    rejectUnauthorized: false
},app);
server.listen(8080);

var io = require('socket.io').listen(server);

io.sockets.on('connection',function (socket) {
    ...
});

app.get("/", function(request, response){
    ...
})

I hope that this will save someone's time.
