Revocation openssl client #141

Closed Werxis closed 1 year ago

mukrop commented 1 year ago

The client seems generally well done. As discussed before, I'd appreciate adjusting the code to take two CLI arguments instead of one (take a port as the second and if not provided, assume 443) and extending the default help message displayed when run with no arguments (see other Linux commands as a manifestation of the de facto standards). As a detail, the git ignore file should include the built binary as well as downloaded temporary files.

When finalized, the client should be easily downloadable as a zip file from the site. I can help you with automatic zipping using Make if you want. However, the final bundle should be self-contained: Apart from the code, it should also contain the license and a simple ReadMe file indicating the author and use notes (such as those stated in the description of #139).
