Namespace: "sysadm"
Name: "settings"
Arguments structure needs the "action" variable/value for all calls:
Action: "list_ssl_certs"
- No additional input needed: will list the known/registered certificates organized by <username> : { <public_key> : <certificate as text> }
Action: "register_ssl_cert"
Example Payload: {"action" : "register_ssl_cert", "pub_key" : <public_key> }
The <public_key> string needs to match the public key of one of the certificates currently loaded into the server/client connection. This will register that certificate on the server and allow that user to authenticate without a password as long as that same certificate is loaded up in any future connections. No special outputs are send back (just overall error/ok status).
Action: "revoke_ssl_cert"
Example Payload: {"action" : "revoke_ssl_cert", "pub_key" : <public_key>, "user" : <optional-username> }
The <public_key> string needs to match one of the keys given by the list function (does not need to match any currently-loaded certs). The "user" field is optional, and allows a connection with full admin privileges to revoke certs belonging to other users.
Note about current user/connection permissions level:
If the current user has full admin access, the "list_ssl_certs" API call will return the registered certificates for all users on the system - otherwise it will only return the certificates for the current user. Similarly, the "revoke_ssl_cert" may be used to remove certs registered to other users only if the current user/connection has full admin access - otherwise it may only be used to manage the current user's certificates.
