Start local server in SSL mode

Is there a way to start the local server in SSL mode?
Maybe we could pass a few arguments or start rack in a different way?

Unsure. Don’t think so currently. Took a quick look at the source code

github.com

boltops-tools/jets/blob/d7d3a21679e0a0aa41c0228e54fcd5e172e84e7a/lib/jets/commands/main.rb#L47

    
      
          def delete(environment=nil)
            Delete.new(options).run
          end
          
          
desc "server", "Runs a local server that mimics API Gateway for development"
          long_desc Help.text(:server)
          option :port, default: "8888", desc: "use PORT"
          option :host, default: "127.0.0.1", desc: "listen on HOST"
          def server
            o = options
            command = "bundle exec rackup --port #{o[:port]} --host #{o[:host]}"
            puts "=> #{command}".color(:green)
            puts Jets::Booter.message
            Jets::Booter.check_config_ru!
            Jets::RackServer.start(options) unless ENV['JETS_RACK'] == '0' # rack server runs in background by default
            Bundler.with_unbundled_env do
              system(command)
            end
          end
          
          
desc "routes", "Print out your application routes"

Jets shells out and calls

bundle exec rackup ...

Believe that uses the config.ru settings. Maybe it’s possible to configure that for SSL.

Seems like rackup wraps and eventually calls puma. So maybe it’s possible to adjust it slightly and use a puma.rb config.

Hope that helps.
