5.5.4. Class Certificate

The Certificate class stores a certificate, its private key, and optionally a passphrase for the private key. The certificate must be in PEM format.

When configuring Vela manually using its configuration file, use the regular constructor of the Certificate class to load a certificate from a string. To load a certificate from a file, use the Certificate.fromFile method.

Example 5.18. Loading a certificate

The following example loads a certificate from the configuration file.

my_certificate = "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
