- allowPartialTrustChain?: boolean
Treat intermediate (non-self-signed) certificates in the trust CA certificate list as trusted.
- ALPNCallback?: (arg: { protocols: string[]; servername: string }) => undefined | string
If set, this will be called when a client opens a connection using the ALPN extension. One argument will be passed to the callback: an object containing
servername
andprotocols
fields, respectively containing the server name from the SNI extension (if any) and an array of ALPN protocol name strings. The callback must return either one of the strings listed inprotocols
, which will be returned to the client as the selected ALPN protocol, orundefined
, to reject the connection with a fatal alert. If a string is returned that does not match one of the client's ALPN protocols, an error will be thrown. This option cannot be used with theALPNProtocols
option, and setting both options will throw an error. - ALPNProtocols?: Uint8Array<ArrayBufferLike> | string[] | Uint8Array<ArrayBufferLike>[]
An array of strings or a Buffer naming possible ALPN protocols. (Protocols should be ordered by their priority.)
- blockList?: BlockList
blockList
can be used for disabling inbound access to specific IP addresses, IP ranges, or IP subnets. This does not work if the server is behind a reverse proxy, NAT, etc. because the address checked against the block list is the address of the proxy, or the one specified by the NAT. - cert?: string | Buffer<ArrayBufferLike> | string | Buffer<ArrayBufferLike>[]
Cert chains in PEM format. One cert chain should be provided per private key. Each cert chain should consist of the PEM formatted certificate for a provided private key, followed by the PEM formatted intermediate certificates (if any), in order, and not including the root CA (the root CA must be pre-known to the peer, see ca). When providing multiple cert chains, they do not have to be in the same order as their private keys in key. If the intermediate certificates are not provided, the peer will not be able to validate the certificate, and the handshake will fail.
- ciphers?: string
Cipher suite specification, replacing the default. For more information, see modifying the default cipher suite. Permitted ciphers can be obtained via tls.getCiphers(). Cipher names must be uppercased in order for OpenSSL to accept them.
- connectionsCheckingInterval?: number
Sets the interval value in milliseconds to check for request and headers timeout in incomplete requests.
- ecdhCurve?: string
A string describing a named curve or a colon separated list of curve NIDs or names, for example P-521:P-384:P-256, to use for ECDH key agreement. Set to auto to select the curve automatically. Use crypto.getCurves() to obtain a list of available curve names. On recent releases, openssl ecparam -list_curves will also display the name and description of each available elliptic curve. Default: tls.DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVE.
- enableTrace?: boolean
When enabled, TLS packet trace information is written to
stderr
. This can be used to debug TLS connection problems. - handshakeTimeout?: number
Abort the connection if the SSL/TLS handshake does not finish in the specified number of milliseconds. A 'tlsClientError' is emitted on the tls.Server object whenever a handshake times out. Default: 120000 (120 seconds).
- headersTimeout?: number
Sets the timeout value in milliseconds for receiving the complete HTTP headers from the client. See Server.headersTimeout for more information.
- highWaterMark?: number
Optionally overrides all
socket
s'readableHighWaterMark
andwritableHighWaterMark
. This affectshighWaterMark
property of bothIncomingMessage
andServerResponse
. Default: - honorCipherOrder?: boolean
Attempt to use the server's cipher suite preferences instead of the client's. When true, causes SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE to be set in secureOptions
- IncomingMessage?: Request
Specifies the
IncomingMessage
class to be used. Useful for extending the originalIncomingMessage
. - insecureHTTPParser?: boolean
Use an insecure HTTP parser that accepts invalid HTTP headers when
true
. Using the insecure parser should be avoided. See --insecure-http-parser for more information. - joinDuplicateHeaders?: boolean
It joins the field line values of multiple headers in a request with
,
instead of discarding the duplicates. - keepAlive?: boolean
If set to
true
, it enables keep-alive functionality on the socket immediately after a new incoming connection is received, similarly on what is done insocket.setKeepAlive([enable][, initialDelay])
. - keepAliveInitialDelay?: number
If set to a positive number, it sets the initial delay before the first keepalive probe is sent on an idle socket.
- keepAliveTimeout?: number
The number of milliseconds of inactivity a server needs to wait for additional incoming data, after it has finished writing the last response, before a socket will be destroyed.
- keepAliveTimeoutBuffer?: number
An additional buffer time added to the
server.keepAliveTimeout
to extend the internal socket timeout. - key?: string | Buffer<ArrayBufferLike> | string | Buffer<ArrayBufferLike> | KeyObject[]
Private keys in PEM format. PEM allows the option of private keys being encrypted. Encrypted keys will be decrypted with options.passphrase. Multiple keys using different algorithms can be provided either as an array of unencrypted key strings or buffers, or an array of objects in the form {pem: <string|buffer>[, passphrase: <string>]}. The object form can only occur in an array. object.passphrase is optional. Encrypted keys will be decrypted with object.passphrase if provided, or options.passphrase if it is not.
- maxHeaderSize?: number
Optionally overrides the value of
--max-http-header-size
for requests received by this server, i.e. the maximum length of request headers in bytes. - maxVersion?: SecureVersion
Optionally set the maximum TLS version to allow. One of
'TLSv1.3'
,'TLSv1.2'
,'TLSv1.1'
, or'TLSv1'
. Cannot be specified along with thesecureProtocol
option, use one or the other. Default:'TLSv1.3'
, unless changed using CLI options. Using--tls-max-v1.2
sets the default to'TLSv1.2'
. Using--tls-max-v1.3
sets the default to'TLSv1.3'
. If multiple of the options are provided, the highest maximum is used. - minVersion?: SecureVersion
Optionally set the minimum TLS version to allow. One of
'TLSv1.3'
,'TLSv1.2'
,'TLSv1.1'
, or'TLSv1'
. Cannot be specified along with thesecureProtocol
option, use one or the other. It is not recommended to use less than TLSv1.2, but it may be required for interoperability. Default:'TLSv1.2'
, unless changed using CLI options. Using--tls-v1.0
sets the default to'TLSv1'
. Using--tls-v1.1
sets the default to'TLSv1.1'
. Using--tls-min-v1.3
sets the default to 'TLSv1.3'. If multiple of the options are provided, the lowest minimum is used. - noDelay?: boolean
If set to
true
, it disables the use of Nagle's algorithm immediately after a new incoming connection is received. - pfx?: string | Buffer<ArrayBufferLike> | string | Buffer<ArrayBufferLike> | PxfObject[]
PFX or PKCS12 encoded private key and certificate chain. pfx is an alternative to providing key and cert individually. PFX is usually encrypted, if it is, passphrase will be used to decrypt it. Multiple PFX can be provided either as an array of unencrypted PFX buffers, or an array of objects in the form {buf: <string|buffer>[, passphrase: <string>]}. The object form can only occur in an array. object.passphrase is optional. Encrypted PFX will be decrypted with object.passphrase if provided, or options.passphrase if it is not.
- pskIdentityHint?: string
hint to send to a client to help with selecting the identity during TLS-PSK negotiation. Will be ignored in TLS 1.3. Upon failing to set pskIdentityHint
tlsClientError
will be emitted withERR_TLS_PSK_SET_IDENTIY_HINT_FAILED
code. - rejectNonStandardBodyWrites?: boolean
If set to
true
, an error is thrown when writing to an HTTP response which does not have a body. - requestCert?: boolean
If true the server will request a certificate from clients that connect and attempt to verify that certificate. Defaults to false.
- requestTimeout?: number
Sets the timeout value in milliseconds for receiving the entire request from the client.
- requireHostHeader?: boolean
If set to
true
, it forces the server to respond with a 400 (Bad Request) status code to any HTTP/1.1 request message that lacks a Host header (as mandated by the specification). - secureOptions?: number
Optionally affect the OpenSSL protocol behavior, which is not usually necessary. This should be used carefully if at all! Value is a numeric bitmask of the SSL_OP_* options from OpenSSL Options
- secureProtocol?: string
Legacy mechanism to select the TLS protocol version to use, it does not support independent control of the minimum and maximum version, and does not support limiting the protocol to TLSv1.3. Use minVersion and maxVersion instead. The possible values are listed as SSL_METHODS, use the function names as strings. For example, use 'TLSv1_1_method' to force TLS version 1.1, or 'TLS_method' to allow any TLS protocol version up to TLSv1.3. It is not recommended to use TLS versions less than 1.2, but it may be required for interoperability. Default: none, see minVersion.
- ServerResponse?: Response
Specifies the
ServerResponse
class to be used. Useful for extending the originalServerResponse
. - sessionIdContext?: string
Opaque identifier used by servers to ensure session state is not shared between applications. Unused by clients.
- sessionTimeout?: number
The number of seconds after which a TLS session created by the server will no longer be resumable. See Session Resumption for more information. Default: 300.
- sigalgs?: string
Colon-separated list of supported signature algorithms. The list can contain digest algorithms (SHA256, MD5 etc.), public key algorithms (RSA-PSS, ECDSA etc.), combination of both (e.g 'RSA+SHA384') or TLS v1.3 scheme names (e.g. rsa_pss_pss_sha512).
- SNICallback?: (servername: string, cb: (err: null | Error, ctx?: SecureContext) => void) => void
SNICallback(servername, cb) <Function> A function that will be called if the client supports SNI TLS extension. Two arguments will be passed when called: servername and cb. SNICallback should invoke cb(null, ctx), where ctx is a SecureContext instance. (tls.createSecureContext(...) can be used to get a proper SecureContext.) If SNICallback wasn't provided the default callback with high-level API will be used (see below).
- uniqueHeaders?: string | string[][]
A list of response headers that should be sent only once. If the header's value is an array, the items will be joined using
;
.
