How to specify port for HTTPS

[antchau]

Hello,

We are looking into using HTTPS for our deployment of knowledge repo. I looked in the config_defaults.py file and it said we would need to specify the port manually. Is there a built-in way to specify this port for the application?

Thanks.

Looks like you can pass the port you would like to use with the --port argument when running the knowledge_repo command

knowledge-repo/scripts/knowledge_repo

Line 185 in f026ad2

preview.add_argument('--port', default=7000, type=int, help="Specify the port on which to run the web server")

Does this help?

We did see that port option when deploying. But, doesn't this port option specify the port on which to run the web server? Can we also specify a distinct port for HTTPS? `

knowledge-repo/knowledge_repo/app/config_defaults.py

	# Set DEPLOY_HTTPS to True if you want to enable encrypted
	# communication with Flask. When enabled, you must provide
	# your ssl certificate, which consists of a .crt and .key
	# file.
	# Note: Even if you set DEPLOY_HTTPS to True, you still need
	# to set the port to 443 manually.
	DEPLOY_HTTPS = False
	SSL_CERT = {
	'cert': '/path/to/cert',
	'key': '/path/to/key'
