You can use your own certificate but to create a self signed certificate follow the steps below:
openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024
openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr
cp server.key server.key.orig
openssl rsa -in server.key.orig -out server.key
openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out server.crt
cp server.crt server.pem
cat server.key >> server.pem
add the following lines to your input file
web.server.ssl_enable = True
web.server.path_to_ssl_cert = "server.pem"
Where server.pem is the path to the server.pem file you created when creating a SSL certificate
Now that ssl encryption is enabled, to access you webserver use https://localhost.ssl:8888 instead of http and wss://localhost.ssl:8888 for http and ws protocals respectively.
