hi,

why not simply read certificate related stuff from file/env and add
proper configuration using

    https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qsslconfiguration.html

and when expiration is about to happen, reload the whole and configure
again?

regards,
alex

Hi all,

I have a secure websocket server based on the Qt example:

https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtwebsockets-sslechoserver-example.html

It requires a certificate and a key which are compiled into the server and it 
functions well.

However, whenever the certificate expires (such as Let’s encrypt after 90 days) 
I need to recompile the server with the renewed certificate.

In order to avoid this process I wonder if it is possible to somehow externally 
point to the the new certificates without integration at compilation time.

Thanks for any hint,
best

Alex
