讓 container 中的 ASP.NET Core 也有憑證

經 2021/03/04 測試,本文內容失效,請參考 ASP.NET Core gRPC 使用自發憑證

之前筆記 使用 ASP.NET Core middleware 進行 gRPC healthy check 使用 ASP.NET Core BackgroundService 進行 gRPC healthy check 以及 ASP.NET Core gRPC 無法在 macOS 上啟動?! 都有提到過 gRPC 的原生限制:採用 HTTP2 協定並預設使用 SSL,雖然可以使用 clear text 只是如此一來不僅失去安全性在設定上還是比較繁瑣些

與其老是想著要怎麼設定跟調整來避開 gRPC 的 HTTP2 SSL 問題,突然想轉個念:乾脆給個憑證 說不定還簡單些,今天就紀錄一下做法供比較參考囉

基本環境說明

  1. macOS Catalina 10.15.6
  2. docker desktop community 2.3.0.5(48029)
  3. .NET Core SDK 3.1.301
  4. docker images

設定步驟

  1. 建立開發用憑證

    官方文件在此: 使用 Docker over HTTPS 裝載 ASP.NET Core 映射

    • 語法

      dotnet dev-certs https -ep ${HOME}/.aspnet/https/aspnetapp.pfx -p {password}
      dotnet dev-certs https --trust
      
    • 範例

      dotnet dev-certs https -ep ${HOME}/.aspnet/https/aspnetapp.pfx -p pass.123
      dotnet dev-certs https --trust
      
  2. 將憑證 mount 給 container 並設定 Kestrel 監聽 port

    docker run --name poc -p 5001:5001 -e ASPNETCORE_URLS=https://+:5001 -e ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Password="pass.123" -e ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Path=/https/aspnetapp.pfx -v ${HOME}/.aspnet/https:/https/ yowko/healthcheck:nocert
    
  3. 實際使用

    http request 成功觸發 grpc call 並正確取得 grpc response

    3request

    2success

心得

  1. appsettings.json 中的 Kestrel ptotocol 不一定需要指定為 http2 使用預設的 http1andhttp2 亦可,重點是 certificate
  2. AppContext.SetSwitch("System.Net.Http.SocketsHttpHandler.Http2UnencryptedSupport", true); 無效,需使用 HttpClientHandler 設定

反覆測試了幾次,大致上歸納出目前的設定方式供參考
