                create a self signed wildcard ssl cert for testing with nginx.conf example
              
          
        
      
        
  
      
    just change out app_name for your purposes
openssl genrsa 2048 > app_name-wildcard.key

openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha1 -days 3650 -key app_name-wildcard.key > app_name-wildcard.cert

# Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:*.app_name.com

openssl x509 -noout -fingerprint -text &lt; app_name-wildcard.cert &gt; app_name-wildcard.info
