2 years ago - when HTTPS is enabled on the server, the Rockblocks can no longer send data
- Rockblock data is sent over HTTP_POST
- need to find a way to redirect HTTP_POST output to the new HTTPS
- reqbin.com for API testing
Rockblock web services manual
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Adding an HTTPS certificate will make the website more secure, more professional looking, and potentially increase our visibility on search engines
Describe the solution you'd like Certbot is a tool developed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation to provide a simple, command line utility for administering Let's Encrypt HTTPS certificates
Additional context I used this tool successfully to encrypt connections to the Cape Cod Fisheries Trust web interface. It's pretty straightforward (at least on Ubuntu) and prompts action when it is required (e.g. for renewing certificates)
