# HTTPS Package for Prometheus
The `https` directory contains a Go package and a sample configuration file for running `node_exporter` with HTTPS instead of HTTP.
When running a server with TLS use the flag `--web.config`
e.g. `./node_exporter --web.config="web-config.yml"`
If the config is kept within the https directory.
The config file should be written in YAML format, and is reloaded on each connection to check for new certificates and/or authentication policy.
##Sample Config:
```
tlsConfig :
# Certificate and key files for server to use to authenticate to client
tlsCertPath : <filename>
tlsKeyPath : <filename>
# Server policy for client authentication. Maps to ClientAuth Policies
# For more detail on clientAuth options: [ClientAuthType](https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#ClientAuthType)
[ clientAuth : <string> | default = "NoClientCert" ]
# CA certificate for client certificate authentication to the server
[ clientCAs : <filename> ]
```
