I need to perform a rest call by attaching the local ssl certificate.
I do not have any info about KeyStore. I just know there is a Certificate installed in my PC and I have to use the certificate based on details of certificate like "Serial number", "Issuer" etc which i can see in the certificate details in the personal certificate store.
I need to create SSLConnectionSocketFactory object which can be attached to rest call.
My question is how to create the SSLContext object?
SSLContext sslContext;// How to create this object and pass it to sslSocketFactory.
HostnameVerifier hostnameVerifier = NoopHostnameVerifier.INSTANCE;
SSLConnectionSocketFactory sslSocketFactory = new SSLConnectionSocketFactory(sslContext, hostnameVerifier);
You can create the SSLContext
instance using this code snippet.
// Load Certificate
CertificateFactory certificateFactory = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509");
Certificate certificate = certificateFactory.generateCertificate(new FileInputStream(new File("CERTIFICATE_LOCATION")));
// Create TrustStore
KeyStore trustStoreContainingTheCertificate = KeyStore.getInstance("JKS");
trustStoreContainingTheCertificate.load(null, null);
trustStoreContainingTheCertificate.setCertificateEntry("ANY_CERTIFICATE_ALIAS", certificate);
// Create SSLContext
TrustManagerFactory trustManagerFactory = TrustManagerFactory.getInstance(TrustManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm());
trustManagerFactory.init(trustStoreContainingTheCertificate);
SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
sslContext.init(null, trustManagerFactory.getTrustManagers(), null);
SSLSocketFactory sslSocketFactory = sslContext.getSocketFactory();
System.out.println(sslSocketFactory);
