Asked By CuriousCoder92 On

I'm trying to figure out the best way to inject SSL certificates into my Docker build process. Right now, I'm copying the certificates directly in the Dockerfile, which works, but I'd prefer to only include them during the production build process. Any advice or alternatives you can suggest? Thanks!

It sounds like you're looking for a way to handle certificates securely. Generally, it's better to map in certificates at runtime instead of building them into the image. You can use a volume mapping or some other method to inject them. Remember, certificate private keys are sensitive information and shouldn’t be a part of your stored image.

That makes sense! I tried doing it myself, but I still had to manually run `update-ca-certificates` in the container to make it work. Maybe I was just messing something up!
