Guides

Setup self-signed ssl/tls certificate in firefox
  1. Run genssl.sh script in the scripts folder to generate certificates.
  2. Add root-ca.pem to Authorities in certificate manager (search for "view certificates" in the firefox settings) and check This certificate can identify website when importing
  3. If still not work, try disabling security.certerrors.mitm.auto_enable_enterprise_roots and security.enterprise_roots.enabled in about:config
  4. Finally run aria2c --enable-rpc --rpc-secret=topsecret --rpc-certificate=server.p12 --rpc-secure
Setup self-signed ssl/tls certificate in chromium
  1. Run genssl.sh script in the scripts folder to generate certificates.
  2. Add root-ca.pem to Authorities tab in Manage certificates (search for "manage certificates" in the search bar) and check Trust this certificate for identifying websites when importing
  3. Finally run aria2c --enable-rpc --rpc-secret=topsecret --rpc-certificate=server.p12 --rpc-secure
Import certificate in windows
  1. Run $ cat genssl.sh | tr -d '\r' | sh - using WSL then rename the generated root-ca.pem to root-ca.cer, double click the file and install certificate.
  2. Store to Local Machine, next, and place the certificate in "Trusted Root Certification Authorities" folder.

Tips

  • If you got socket error when using aria2 cli in Windows try adding --disable-ipv6 flag.
  • For SSL certificate error when downloading, try adding --check-certificate=false flag.

Building

Node.js v18 or newer should work.

  1. pnpm install or npm install
  2. npm run build

dist folder will be generated in the root of the project directory with firefox and chromium folder inside.

Translation

Currently no plan for it since it's just fun little project for me to solve my own problem but let's see if userbase is growing or tell me if you need it I'll make the abstraction for the translator.
