Easily create your own CA and self-signed certificates.

The generated CA can be imported into Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer for local development. All subsequent created certificates will then be valid SSL certificates to each browser.

Create Certificate Authority

Usage: ca-gen

The following shows the general usage for ca-gen:

USAGE: ca-gen -n CN [-kdcslouev] <keyfile> <crtfile>
       ca-gen --help
       ca-gen --version

Required arguments
  -n CN       Common Name

Optional arguments
  -k int      Key size in bits
  -d int      Validity in days
  -c C        Subject two letter country name (C)
  -s ST       Subject state name (ST)
  -l L        Subject location (L)
  -o O        Subject organization (O)
  -u OU       Subject organizational unit (OU)
  -e Email    Subject email (emailAddress)
  -v          Verbose output

Required parameter
  <keyfile>   Path to output key file
  <crtfile>   Path to output cert file

Execute: ca-gen

The following command shows how the CA is generated for the Devilbox:

$ ca-gen -v -c DE -s Berlin -l Berlin -o Devilbox -u Devilbox -n devilbox.org \
       -e ca@devilbox.org devilbox-rootCA.key devilbox-rootCA.crt
