# Browser PKCS#10 CSR generation PoC
|
|
|
|
|
2020-12-04 23:21:18 +00:00
|
|
|
This repository contains a small proof of concept implementation of browser based PKCS#10 certificate signing request
|
|
|
|
and PKCS#12 key store generation using [node-forge](https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge).

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
The backend is implemented in [Go](https://golang.org/) and utilizes openssl for the signing operations.

## Running
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
git clone https://git.dittberner.info/jan/browser_csr_generation.git
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Get dependencies and build assets
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
cd browser_csr_generation
|
|
|
|
npm install --global gulp-cli
|
|
|
|
npm install
|
|
|
|
gulp
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
2020-11-29 23:55:34 +00:00
|
|
|
2. Setup the example CA and a server certificate and key
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
./setup_example_ca.sh
|
|
|
|
openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -subj "/CN=localhost" -addext subjectAltName=DNS:localhost -newkey rsa:3072 \
|
|
|
|
-nodes -out server.crt.pem -keyout server.key.pem
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Run the Go based backend
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
2020-11-29 23:55:34 +00:00
|
|
|
go run main.go
|
2020-11-22 10:28:28 +00:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
2020-12-04 23:21:18 +00:00

|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Run gulp watch
|
|
|
|
|
2020-12-04 23:21:18 +00:00
|
|
|
You can run a [gulp watch](https://gulpjs.com/docs/en/getting-started/watching-files/)
|
|
|
|
in a second terminal window to automatically publish changes to the files in the `src` directory:
|
2020-11-22 10:28:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Translations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This PoC uses [go-i18n](https://github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/) for internationalization (i18n) support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The translation workflow needs the `go18n` binary which can be installed via
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
go get -u github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/v2/goi18n
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To extract new messages from the code run
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
goi18n extract
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then use
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
goi18n merge active.*.toml
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to create TOML files for translation as `translate.<locale>.toml`. After translating the messages run
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
goi18n merge active.*.toml translate.*.toml
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to merge the messages back into the active translation files. To add a new language you need to add the language code
|
|
|
|
to `main.go`'s i18n bundle loading code
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
for _, lang := range []string{"en-US", "de-DE"} {
|
|
|
|
if _, err := bundle.LoadMessageFile(fmt.Sprintf("active.%s.toml", lang)); err != nil {
|
|
|
|
log.Panic(err)
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
