Mini tutorial for configuring client-side SSL certificates.

Client-side SSL

For excessively paranoid client authentication.


Updated Apr 5 2019:

because this is a gist from 2011 that people stumble into and maybe you should AES instead of 3DES in the year of our lord 2019.

some other notes:

Hi David,
I came across your profile online and wanted to reach out about Development

A way to integrate FosUserBundle and HWIOAuthBundle

I have managed to install this… and make it work. I implemented it for Facebook and Google, but you can extend it. My solution it is mostly as described in #116, with a bit of more code presented. The key aspects that lack in the #116 presentation (IMO) are:

  • the registration as service of your custom FOSUBUserProvider (with the necessary parameters)
  • set the service for oauth_user_provider in the security.yml with your custom created service

Here are the steps:

  1. Routing. In routing.yml I have added all the routes for both bundles.
  2. Configuration. I have set the config.yml mostly as it is presented in the HWIOAuthBundle.
  3. Security. I have set the security.yml mostly as it is presented in the HWIOAuthBundle (though my routes are using /login pattern, not /connect). Also, the oauth_user_provider is set for my custom service.

So, you want to run Chrome headless.

Update May 2017

Eric Bidelman has documented some of the common workflows possible with headless Chrome over in https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/04/headless-chrome.

Update

If you're looking at this in 2016 and beyond, I strongly recommend investigating real headless Chrome: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkgr/headless/README.md

Windows and Mac users might find using Justin Ribeiro's Docker setup useful here while full support for these platforms is being worked out.
