=head1 Name

ngx.ssl.proxysslcert - Lua API for post-processing SSL server certificate request message and setting proxy ssl certificate and its related private key and chain for NGINX upstream SSL connections.


=head1 Status

This Lua module is production ready.

=head1 Description

This Lua module provides API functions for post-processing SSL server certificate request message and setting proxy ssl certificate and its related private key and chain for NGINX upstream SSL connections.

It must to be used in the context L<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua_block>.

This directive runs user Lua code when Nginx is about to post-process the SSL server certificate request message from upstream.

It is particularly useful for setting the SSL certificate chain and the corresponding private key for the         upstream SSL (https) connections.

To load the C<ngx.ssl.proxysslcert> module in Lua, just write


    local proxy_ssl_cert = require "ngx.ssl.proxysslcert"




=head1 Methods


=head2 clear_certs

B<syntax:> I<ok, err = proxy_ssl_cert.clear_certs()>

B<context:> I<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_luaE<42>>

It's the same as L<ngx.ssl.clear_certs|https://github.com/openresty/lua-resty-core/blob/master/lib/ngx/ssl.md#clear_certs>, but for the current upstream SSL connection.

This function can only be called in the context of L<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua_block>.




=head2 set_der_cert

B<syntax:> I<ok, err = proxy_ssl_cert.set_der_cert(der_cert_chain)>

B<context:> I<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_luaE<42>>

It's the same as L<ngx.ssl.set_der_cert|https://github.com/openresty/lua-resty-core/blob/master/lib/ngx/ssl.md#set_der_cert>, but for the current upstream SSL connection.

This function can only be called in the context of L<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua_block>.




=head2 set_der_priv_key

B<syntax:> I<ok, err = proxy_ssl_cert.set_der_priv_key(der_priv_key)>

B<context:> I<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_luaE<42>>

It's the same as L<ngx.ssl.set_der_priv_key|https://github.com/openresty/lua-resty-core/blob/master/lib/ngx/ssl.md#set_der_priv_key>, but for the current upstream SSL connection.

This function can only be called in the context of L<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua_block>.




=head2 set_cert

B<syntax:> I<ok, err = proxy_ssl_cert.set_cert(cert_chain)>

B<context:> I<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_luaE<42>>

It's the same as L<ngx.ssl.set_cert|https://github.com/openresty/lua-resty-core/blob/master/lib/ngx/ssl.md#set_cert>, but for the current upstream SSL connection.

This function can only be called in the context of L<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua_block>.




=head2 set_priv_key

B<syntax:> I<ok, err = proxy_ssl_cert.set_priv_key(priv_key)>

B<context:> I<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_luaE<42>>

It's the same as L<ngx.ssl.set_priv_key|https://github.com/openresty/lua-resty-core/blob/master/lib/ngx/ssl.md#set_priv_key>, but for the current upstream SSL connection.

This function can only be called in the context of L<proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#proxy_ssl_certificate_by_lua_block>.
