nself ssl

nself ssl

Manage SSL certificates for ɳSelf services.

Synopsis

nself ssl <subcommand>

Description

nself ssl manages the SSL certificates used by nginx to serve HTTPS traffic for all ɳSelf services. Certificates are generated automatically during �P1� build, but you can use this command to check their status or force regeneration without a full rebuild.

Certificate generation uses mkcert when available (produces browser-trusted certificates for local development) or falls back to OpenSSL self-signed certificates with Subject Alternative Names (SANs) covering all configured subdomains. Certificates are stored in the project’s ssl/ directory.

Use nself ssl status to verify expiry dates before a deployment or after changing your BASE_DOMAIN.
