Configure TLS on an HTTP server

Set the tls key to configure TLS. Both key and cert are required. The key should be the contents of your private key; cert should be the contents of your issued certificate. Use Bun.file() to read the contents.

server.ts
const server = Bun.serve({
  fetch: request => new Response("Welcome to Bun!"),
  tls: {
    cert: Bun.file("cert.pem"),
    key: Bun.file("key.pem"),
  },
});

By default Bun trusts the default Mozilla-curated list of well-known root CAs. To override this list, pass an array of certificates as ca.

server.ts
const server = Bun.serve({
  fetch: request => new Response("Welcome to Bun!"),
  tls: {
    cert: Bun.file("cert.pem"),
    key: Bun.file("key.pem"),
    ca: [Bun.file("ca1.pem"), Bun.file("ca2.pem")],
  },
});
