Chef Certificate Generator (chef_certgen)

Chef Certificate Generator is an Erlang NIF that exposes some of the OpenSSL functionality missing from the builtin Erlang crypto application.

Installation and Usage

  1. Install Erlang R15B01 and rebar
  2. Compile and test:
cd chef_certgen
make
  1. Test it out
erl -pa ebin application:start(crypto). chef_certgen:rsa_generate_keypair(2048).

Notes

Generate a self-signed CA cert for testing

  1. Create the keypair:
openssl genrsa -out server_key.pem 2048
  1. Create the cert:
openssl req \
-x509 -nodes -days 3650 \
-subj '/C=US/ST=Washington/L=Seattle/CN=chef.is.awesome' \
-new -key server_key.pem -out server_cert.pem
