How do I use a self-signed certificate?

General
1

I have a debian machine with silverbullet on a docker in my local network. Used to be that I would access it over lan and it would work, but now it doesn’t. I get the HTTPS limitation, but it does break my workflow and now I can’t use the tool.

I followed the linked tutorial on how to create a self-signed certificate with openssl. it’s straightforward enough. However there’s still one lingering issue that isn’t addressed at all: what do I do with the certificates?

I have no clue and the average person reading the tutorial won’t either. How does it integrate with my docker container?

Thanks to anyone reading this and willing to give me a tip, I am at a loss here.

You have multiple options to use a Silverbullet with HTTPS I made couple of easy to follow guides to cover some of these possibilities:

Using caddy

Using Nginx Proxy Manager

Acces SB from outside your Network through Twingate

Thanks for your quick reply.
I also found out that you can do it really easily with apache (I have an apache server running on that machine) and now I feel dumb.
