AWS: Good Things To Know

Handle SSL & PEM key trough parameter store of system manager

when you save key on parameter store of AWS system manager or environment variable on linux system

after parsing that value that will handle as a string.

if your key is like this

-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
MIblablabla...
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----

when parsed as a string it will be like

-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\\n
MIblablabla...\\n
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----

but \\n and \n is definitely different.

which means you have to replace \\n -> \n

But most important thing is you should replace it directly before

JavaScript

 https.createServer({
    key: env.SSL_KEY.replace(/\\n/g, '\n'),
    cert: env.SSL_CERT.replace(/\\n/g, '\n'),
  }, app)
    .listen(443, () => {
      console.log('HTTPS server up');
    });
