Enabling SSL in GRPC setup on Springboot about grpc-spring HOT 4 CLOSED

just a note: there is ":" instead of "=" on the 2nd and third property. Just in case you missed it.

Thanks for noting this, I will check.

I checked the code and certificatePath actually refers to the privateKeyPath.

AFAICT a certificate is just a public key with some metadata that is send to the client, so that he can encrypt the bytes with it. The server then needs the private key to decrypt those bytes. The certificate chain is used to verify whether the server is trustworthy by checking if at least one certificate in that chain is trusted by the client.

I'm not sure whether you can write Spring properties using kebab-case the properties are spelled like this:

• grpc.server.security.enabled
• grpc.server.security.certificateChainPath
• grpc.server.security.certificatePath

and can be assigned like this in properties file:

key=value

Other combinations/cases might work as well, but I haven't checked which of them actually do.
In YAML other ways might be possible.

You can read more about that here: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/boot-features-external-config.html

I assume the underlying issue is fixed with the property being renamed and the additional docs.

I guess this issues can be closed now.
