rustls-cert-gen

rustls-cert-gen is a tool to generate TLS certificates. In its current state it will generate a Root CA and an end-entity certificate, along with private keys. The end-entity certificate will be signed by the Root CA.

Usage

Having compiled the binary you can simply pass a path to output generated files.

cargo run -- -o output/dir

In the output directory you will find these files:

• cert.pem (end-entity's X.509 certificate, signed by root-ca's key)
• cert.key.pem (end-entity's private key)
• root-ca.pem (ca's self-signed X.509 certificate)

For a complete list of supported options:
