Sails.JS HTTP + HTTPS

问题:

I am trying to figure out how to lift a sails app that responds to both HTTP and HTTPS requests. I used the config/local.js method of configuring express like so (detailed here):

 var fs = require('fs');

module.exports = {

  port: process.env.PORT || 1337,
  environment: process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development',

  express: { serverOptions : {
    key: fs.readFileSync('ssl/key.pem'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('ssl/cert.pem')
  }}

};

However, while this works, it results in the server only being able to serve HTTPS requests. Has anyone figured out how to get this done, without creating a separate HTTP only server that redirects to port 443 ?

Thanks

1-Uncomment the path to your SSL Certificates in your local.js or add path to your SSL Certificates in your config/env/production.js.

    module.exports  = {
 ssl: {
     ca: require('fs').readFileSync(__dirname + '/ssl/ca.crt'),
     key: require('fs').readFileSync(__dirname + '/ssl/key.key'),
     cert: require('fs').readFileSync(__dirname + '/ssl/cert.crt')
   },
 port: 443
}

2-Add a policies section in your config/env/production.js

    module.exports  = {
 ssl: {
     ca: require('fs').readFileSync(__dirname + '/ssl/ca.crt'),
     key: require('fs').readFileSync(__dirname + '/ssl/key.key'),
     cert: require('fs').readFileSync(__dirname + '/ssl/cert.crt')
   },
 port: 443,
 policies: {
    '*': 'isHTTPS'
   }
}

3-Create a isHTTPS.js policy in your api/policies folder. This policy will redirect the HTTP request to HTTPS

  module.exports = function(req, res, next) {
    if (req.secure) {
        // Already https; don't do anything special.
        next();
    } else {
        // Redirect to https.
        res.redirect('https://' + req.headers.host + req.url);
    }
};

4-Then we will edit the config/bootstrap.js file and listen to port 80 if the environment is production, so that we can redirect the requests to 443 i.e SSL

    var http = require( 'http' );
module.exports.bootstrap = function(cb) {
    //If the environment is production, then listen on port 80 
    if(sails.config.environment === "production") {
        http.createServer( sails.hooks.http.app ).listen( 80 );        
    }
    cb();
}

I was able to get http and https running with sails by modifying my configs/local.js file:

var fs = require('fs');
var local = ... // Your default local.js settings should go here
if(require('optimist').argv.https) {
    local.express = {
        serverOptions : {
            key: fs.readFileSync('ssl/server.key'),
            cert: fs.readFileSync('ssl/server.crt')
        }
    };
    local.port = 1338; // This port should be different than your default port
}
module.exports = local;

Now you will need to run your sails app twice. The first time type in your regular sails lift command. The second time run sails lift --https

This should allow you to have both http and https servers running off of the same codebase. As some other people have mentioned, nginx is a much better solution for handling this sort of this, but if you are doing local development and don't want to have to install nginx the solution above is just fine.

回答3:

To have both HTTP & HTTPS, avoiding the redirection way:

Configure your SSL key & cert and HTTPS port in your /config/env/production.js:

var fs = require( 'fs' );
module.exports = {
    port: 443,
    ssl: {
        key: fs.readFileSync( 'ssl_key.key' ),
        cert: fs.readFileSync( 'ssl_key.crt' )
    }
    //, ...
};

Then, listen port 80 with a second HTTP server into /config/bootstrap.js:

var http = require( 'http' );
module.exports.bootstrap = function ( cb ) {
    // ...
    if ( process.env.NODE_ENV == 'production' )
        http.createServer( sails.hooks.http.app ).listen( 80 );
    // ...
};

Check this out: https://github.com/balderdashy/sails/issues/862

module.exports.bootstrap = function (cb) {
    var express = require("express"),
         app = express();

    app.get('*', function(req,res) {  
        res.redirect('https://' + req.headers.host + req.url)
    }).listen(80);

    cb();
};

If you are using sails 0.10.x you may need to move this to module.exports.express (config/express.js) I'm not sure...

回答5:

As an update from 0.9 to 0.10 , the local.js file should now have

ssl : {
key: fs.readFileSync(‘server.key’),
cert: fs.readFileSync(‘server.crt’)
}

instead of

express : {
        serverOptions : {
            key: fs.readFileSync('ssl/server.key'),
            cert: fs.readFileSync('ssl/server.crt')
        }
    };

回答6:

I've been wondering for running sailsjs on HTTPS and after going back and forth here is the solution working for me.

1. I copied .crt and .key file in project directory under ssl folder

2. config/local.js updated with following as I'm using sailsjs 0.12.3

   
   ssl: {
     key: require('fs').readFileSync(require('path').resolve(__dirname + '/ssl/mykey.key')),
     cert: require('fs').readFileSync(require('path').resolve(__dirname + '/ssl/mycert.crt'))
   }
   
   
   

回答7:

Doesnt look like there is a way to do this within sails at the moment so I ultimately just used nginx on the server and created a redirect rule for HTTP->HTTPS.

回答8:

You must take care of SSL & HTTPS , If both use same port by proxy.

var express = require("express"),
     app = express();

app.get('*', function(req,res) {  

    if(req.isSocket){           
        return res.redirect('wss://' + req.headers.host + req.url)  
    }
    else{
        return res.redirect('https://' + req.headers.host + req.url)    
    }

}).listen(80);
