NAME

nng_tls_config_ca_file - load certificate authority from file

SYNOPSIS

#include <nng/nng.h>
#include <nng/supplemental/tls/tls.h>

int nng_tls_config_ca_file(nng_tls_config *cfg, const char *path);

DESCRIPTION

The nng_tls_config_ca_file() function configures the certificate authority certificate chain and optional revocation list by loading the certificates (and revocation list if present) from a single named file. The file must at least one X.509 certificate in PEM format, and may contain multiple such certificates, as well as zero or more PEM CRL objects. This information is used to validate certificates that are presented by peers, when using the configuration cfg.

Note	Certificates must be configured when using the authentication mode NNG_TLS_AUTH_MODE_REQUIRED.

Tip	This function may be called multiple times, to add additional chains to a configuration, without affecting those added previously.

RETURN VALUES

This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.

ERRORS

NNG_ENOMEM	Insufficient memory is available.
NNG_EBUSY	The configuration cfg is already in use, and cannot be modified.
NNG_EINVAL	The contents of path are invalid or do not contain a valid PEM certificate.
NNG_ENOENT	The file path does not exist.
NNG_EPERM	The file path is not readable.
