erlang-p1-pkix - 1.0.10-1 main

The idea of the library is to simplify certificates configuration in Erlang
programs. Typically an Erlang program which needs certificates (for HTTPS/
MQTT/XMPP/etc) provides a bunch of options such as certfile, chainfile,
privkey, etc. The situation becomes even more complicated when a server
supports so called virtual domains because a program is typically required to
match a virtual domain with its certificate. If a user has plenty of virtual
domains it's quickly becoming a nightmare for them to configure all this.
The complexity also leads to errors: a single configuration mistake and a
program generates obscure log messages, unreadable Erlang tracebacks or,
even worse, just silently ignores the errors.
Fortunately, the large part of certificates configuration can be automated,
reducing a user configuration to something as simple as:
.
certfiles:
- /etc/letsencrypt/live/*/*.pem
.
The purpose of this library is to do this dirty job under the hood.
