🔒 DevHttps

Easy https for local web development

• Develop with dev.yourapp.com instead of http://localhost:3000
• Catch https issues in development instead of production
• No need to install/trsut a self-signed CA

DevHttps wraps certbot to generate certificates and configures and runs Caddy in https reverse proxy mode.

Quickstart:

(1) Install:

brew install divtxt/tap/devhttps certbot caddy

(2) Configure DevHttps for your development:

devhttps add dev.myapp.com 3000

• Use a domain you control - you must be able to create DNS entries!
• Choose a subdomain (use it in place of "dev.yourapp.com")
• Use the correct development port for your app
• Follow instructions on DNS entries etc.

(3) Run the https server (wraps caddy run):

devhttps run

and enjoy development with https!

(don't forget to start your app)
