I’m currently using
Express 2.x
Node 0.8.x
Do I have to pass
key and cert parameters to express.createServer() to handle SSL by Node.js?
Or SSL is handled by Nginx on Heroku?
Nope, SSL termination happens at the load balancer, before encrypted traffic reaches your node app:
You can check
req.headers['x-forwarded-proto'] === 'https'to see which protocol the request came in with.Related: configure jetty ssl in heroku
