Spring boot 讀書心得
Spring Boot default uses Http 8080 port when application start up.
You need to follow the steps given below to configure the HTTPS and the port 443 in Spring Boot application
- Obtain the SSL certificate – Create a self-signed certificate or get one from a Certificate Authority
- Enable HTTPS and 443 port
Self-Signed Certificate
To create a self-signed certificate, Java Run Time environment comes bundled with certificate management utility key tool. This utility tool is used to create a Self-Signed certificate. It is shown in the code given here −
keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -storetype PKCS12 -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -keystore keystore.p12 -validity 3650 Enter keystore password: Re-enter new password: What is your first and last name? [Unknown]: What is the name of your organizational unit? [Unknown]: What is the name of your organization? [Unknown]: What is the name of your City or Locality? [Unknown]: What is the name of your State or Province? [Unknown]: What is the two-letter country code for this unit? [Unknown]: Is CN = Unknown, OU=Unknown, O = Unknown, L = Unknown, ST = Unknown, C = Unknown correct? [no]: yes
This code will generate a PKCS12 keystore file named as keystore.p12 and the certificate alias name is tomcat.
Configure HTTPS
We need to provide the server port as 443, key-store file path, key-store-password, key-store-type and key alias name into the application.properties file. Observe the code given here −
server.port: 443 server.ssl.key-store: keystore.p12 server.ssl.key-store-password: springboot server.ssl.keyStoreType: PKCS12 server.ssl.keyAlias: tomcat
You can use the following code if you are using YAML properties use below application.yml −
server: port: 443 ssl: key-store: keystore.p12 key-store-password: springboot keyStoreType: PKCS12 keyAlias: tomcat
You can create an executable JAR file, and run the spring boot application by using the following Maven or Gradle commands.
For Maven, you can use the following command −
mvn clean install
After “BUILD SUCCESS”, you can find the JAR file under the target directory.
