- [ ] Verify configuration is in place
- [ ] Start application
```bash
./start.sh
```
### Initial Verification (First 5 minutes)
- [ ] Application starts without errors
- [ ] Check logs for startup messages
- [ ] Verify no SSL connection errors immediately
- [ ] Check that certificate wasn't attempted to download (if server is unreachable, this is expected)
---
## Post-Deployment Testing
### Connection Test
- [ ] Open settings UI on player
- [ ] Enter server details (if not pre-configured)
- [ ] Click "Test Connection" button
- [ ] Connection succeeds with green checkmark
- [ ] Error message is clear if connection fails
### Playlist Operations
- [ ] Playlist fetches successfully from HTTPS server
- [ ] Media files download without SSL errors
- [ ] Playlist updates trigger correctly
- [ ] No "CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED" errors in logs
### Certificate Management
- [ ] Certificate file created: `~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem`
- [ ] Certificate info file created: `~/.kiwy-signage/cert_info.json`
- [ ] Certificate can be verified:
```bash
openssl x509 -in ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem -text -noout
```
### API Operations
- [ ] Authentication succeeds over HTTPS
- [ ] Playlist retrieval works
- [ ] Media downloads work
- [ ] Status feedback sends successfully
- [ ] Heartbeat messages send without errors
---
## Monitoring (24-48 hours)
### Log Review
- [ ] Check application logs for SSL-related messages
- [ ] Look for:
- [ ] "Using saved certificate" or "Using system CA bundle"
- [ ] "✓ Server certificate installed" (if auto-downloaded)
- [ ] No SSL errors after certificate is loaded
- [ ] All API operations succeeded
### Error Scenarios
- [ ] If `SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`:
- [ ] Check server certificate is valid
- [ ] Check `/api/certificate` endpoint returns proper certificate
- [ ] Consider `verify_ssl: false` for testing (temporary only)
- [ ] If connection timeout:
- [ ] Check network connectivity
- [ ] Verify HTTPS port 443 is open
- [ ] Check server is responding
- [ ] Consider increasing timeout value
### Performance
- [ ] HTTPS connections perform at acceptable speed
- [ ] Media downloads at expected speed
- [ ] No CPU spikes from SSL operations
- [ ] Memory usage stable
---
## Rollback Plan (if needed)
If HTTPS deployment has issues:
1. **Quick Fallback to HTTP:**
```json
{
"use_https": false,
"port": "5000"
}
```
2. **Steps:**
- [ ] Update `app_config.json` with HTTP settings
- [ ] Stop player: `./stop_player.sh`
- [ ] Start player: `./start.sh`
- [ ] Verify connection works
3. **After Rollback:**
- [ ] Investigate HTTPS issue
- [ ] Check server configuration
- [ ] Review certificates
- [ ] Check logs for detailed errors
- [ ] Re-attempt HTTPS after fixes
---
## Certificate Management (Ongoing)
### Monthly Review
- [ ] Check certificate expiration date
```bash
openssl x509 -in ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem -noout -dates
```
- [ ] If expiring soon:
- [ ] Update server certificate
- [ ] Remove old certificate from player
- [ ] Player will download new certificate on next connection
### Updating Certificate
1. Update server certificate
2. Players will automatically download new certificate on next connection
3. Or manually delete old certificate:
```bash
rm ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem
```
4. Next connection will download new certificate
### Monitoring Certificate Changes
- [ ] Watch logs for "downloading server certificate"
- [ ] Verify new certificate fingerprint in logs
- [ ] Confirm all players successfully updated
---

"port": "443",
"screen_ip": "tv-terasa",
"quickconnect_key": "8887779",
"use_https": true,
"verify_ssl": true,
...
}
```
---
## Implementation Details
### SSL Certificate Flow
1. **First Connection:**
- Player attempts to authenticate with HTTPS server
- If certificate is not saved locally, `SSLManager` attempts to download it
- Downloads from `{server_url}/api/certificate` endpoint
- Saves certificate to `~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem`
- All subsequent connections use saved certificate
2. **Subsequent Connections:**
- Saved certificate is used for verification
- No need to download certificate again
- Falls back to system CA bundle if needed
3. **Certificate Storage:**
- Location: `~/.kiwy-signage/`
- Files:
- `server_cert.pem` - Server certificate in PEM format
- `cert_info.json` - Certificate metadata (issuer, validity dates, etc.)
### Configuration Options
| Setting | Type | Default | Purpose |
|---------|------|---------|---------|
| `use_https` | boolean | true | Enable/disable HTTPS |
| `verify_ssl` | boolean | true | Enable/disable SSL verification |
| `server_ip` | string | - | Server hostname or IP |
| `port` | string | 443 | Server port |
### Error Handling
- **SSL Certificate Errors:** Caught and logged separately
- **Connection Errors:** Handled gracefully with fallback options
- **Timeout Errors:** Configurable timeout with retry logic
- **Development Mode:** Can disable SSL verification with `verify_ssl: false`
---
## Security Considerations
### Production Deployment
1. **Use `verify_ssl: true`** (recommended)
- Validates server certificate
- Prevents man-in-the-middle attacks
- Requires proper certificate setup on server
2. **Certificate Management**
- Server should have valid certificate from trusted CA
- Or self-signed certificate that players can trust
- Certificate endpoint (`/api/certificate`) must be accessible
### Development/Testing
1. **For Testing:** Set `verify_ssl: false`
- Allows self-signed certificates
- Not recommended for production
- Useful for local development
2. **Certificate Distribution**
- Use `/api/certificate` endpoint to distribute certificates
- Certificates stored in secure location on device
- Certificate update mechanism available
---
## Testing Checklist
### Basic Connectivity
- [ ] Player connects to HTTPS server
- [ ] Certificate is downloaded automatically on first connection
- [ ] Subsequent connections use saved certificate
- [ ] Certificate info is displayed correctly
### Playlist Operations
- [ ] Playlist fetches work with HTTPS
- [ ] Media files download via HTTPS
- [ ] Playlist updates without SSL errors
- [ ] Status feedback sends successfully
### Error Scenarios
- [ ] Handles self-signed certificates gracefully
- [ ] Appropriate error messages for SSL failures
- [ ] Fallback works when `verify_ssl: false`
- [ ] Connection errors logged properly
### Configuration
- [ ] `use_https: true` forces HTTPS URLs

- Test playlist fetch works
### Step 4: Monitor for Issues
- Watch for SSL-related errors in logs
- Verify all API calls work (playlist, feedback, heartbeat)
- Monitor player performance
### Troubleshooting
**Issue:** `SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`
- Solution: Set `verify_ssl: false` temporarily or ensure server certificate is valid
**Issue:** `Connection refused` on HTTPS
- Solution: Check HTTPS port (443) is open, verify nginx is running
**Issue:** Certificate endpoint not accessible
- Solution: Ensure server has `/api/certificate` endpoint, check firewall rules
---
## Future Enhancements

# HTTPS Implementation Quick Reference
## Configuration
### app_config.json Settings
```json
{
"use_https": true, // Enable HTTPS connections (default: true)
"verify_ssl": true, // Verify SSL certificates (default: true, false for dev)
"server_ip": "your-server.com",
"port": "443" // Use 443 for HTTPS, 5000 for HTTP
}
```
---
## Code Usage Examples
### 1. Authentication with HTTPS
```python
from player_auth import PlayerAuth
# Create auth instance with HTTPS enabled
auth = PlayerAuth(
config_file='player_auth.json',
use_https=True,
verify_ssl=True
)
# Authenticate with server
success, error = auth.authenticate(
server_url='https://your-server.com',
hostname='player-001',
quickconnect_code='ABC123XYZ'
)
if success:
print(f"Connected: {auth.get_player_name()}")
else:
print(f"Error: {error}")
```
### 2. Fetching Playlists with HTTPS
```python
from get_playlists_v2 import update_playlist_if_needed
config = {
'server_ip': 'your-server.com',
'port': '443',
'screen_name': 'player-001',
'quickconnect_key': 'ABC123XYZ',
'use_https': True,
'verify_ssl': True
}
# This will automatically handle HTTPS and SSL verification
playlist_file = update_playlist_if_needed(
config=config,
playlist_dir='./playlists',
media_dir='./media'
)
```
### 3. Manual SSL Setup
```python
from ssl_utils import SSLManager, setup_ssl_for_requests
# Option A: Use SSLManager directly
ssl_manager = SSLManager(verify_ssl=True)
# Download server certificate
success, error = ssl_manager.download_server_certificate(
server_url='https://your-server.com'
)
if success:
# Use session for requests
session = ssl_manager.get_session()
response = session.get('https://your-server.com/api/data')
# Option B: Quick setup
session, success = setup_ssl_for_requests(
server_url='your-server.com',
use_https=True,
verify_ssl=True
)
```
### 4. Handling SSL Errors
```python
try:
response = session.get('https://your-server.com/api/data')
except requests.exceptions.SSLError as e:
print(f"SSL Error: {e}")
# Options:
# 1. Ensure certificate is valid
# 2. Download certificate from /api/certificate
# 3. Set verify_ssl=False for testing only
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError as e:
print(f"Connection Error: {e}")
```
---
## Common Configuration Scenarios
### Scenario 1: Production with Proper Certificate
```json
{
"server_ip": "production-server.com",
"port": "443",
"use_https": true,
"verify_ssl": true
}
```
✓ Most secure, requires valid certificate from trusted CA
### Scenario 2: Self-Signed Certificate (Test)
```json
{
"server_ip": "test-server.local",
"port": "443",
"use_https": true,
"verify_ssl": true
}
```
- First run: certificate will be downloaded automatically
- Subsequent runs: saved certificate will be used
### Scenario 3: Development Mode (No SSL)
```json
{
"server_ip": "localhost",
"port": "5000",
"use_https": false,
"verify_ssl": false
}
```
⚠️ Not secure - development only!
### Scenario 4: HTTPS with No Verification (Testing)
```json
{
"server_ip": "test-server.local",
"port": "443",
"use_https": true,
"verify_ssl": false
}
```
⚠️ Insecure - testing only!
---
## Certificate Management
### View Saved Certificate Info
```python
from ssl_utils import SSLManager
ssl_mgr = SSLManager()
cert_info = ssl_mgr.get_certificate_info()
print(cert_info)
# Output: {
# 'subject': '...',
# 'issuer': '...',
# 'valid_from': '...',
# 'valid_until': '...',
# 'fingerprint': '...'
# }
```
### Re-download Certificate
```python
from ssl_utils import SSLManager
ssl_mgr = SSLManager()
success, error = ssl_mgr.download_server_certificate(
server_url='https://your-server.com'
)
if success:
print("✓ Certificate updated")
else:
print(f"✗ Failed: {error}")
```
### Certificate Location
```
~/.kiwy-signage/
├── server_cert.pem # The actual certificate
└── cert_info.json # Certificate metadata
```
---
## Troubleshooting
### Problem: `SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`
**Cause:** Certificate validation failed
**Solutions:**
1. Ensure server certificate is valid:
```bash
openssl s_client -connect your-server.com:443
```
2. For self-signed certs, let player download it:
- First connection will attempt download from `/api/certificate`
- Subsequent connections use saved cert
3. Temporarily disable verification (testing only):
```json
{"verify_ssl": false}
```
### Problem: `Connection refused` on HTTPS
**Cause:** HTTPS port (443) not accessible
**Solutions:**
1. Verify HTTPS is enabled on server
2. Check firewall rules allow port 443
3. Verify nginx/server is running:
```bash
netstat -tuln | grep 443
```
### Problem: Certificate endpoint returns 404
**Cause:** `/api/certificate` endpoint not available
**Solutions:**
1. Verify server has certificate endpoint implemented
2. Check server URL is correct
3. Ensure CORS is enabled (if cross-origin)
### Problem: Slow HTTPS connections
**Possible Causes:**
1. SSL handshake timeout - increase timeout:
```python
auth.authenticate(..., timeout=60)
```
2. Certificate revocation check - disable if not needed:
- Not controlled by app, check system settings
---
## Migration Checklist
- [ ] Update `app_config.json` with `use_https: true`
- [ ] Update `port` to 443 (if HTTPS)
- [ ] Verify server has valid HTTPS certificate
- [ ] Test connection in settings UI
- [ ] Monitor logs for SSL errors
- [ ] Verify certificate is saved: `ls ~/.kiwy-signage/`
- [ ] Test playlist fetch works
- [ ] Test media downloads work
- [ ] Test status feedback works
---
## Debug Logging
Enable detailed logging for debugging HTTPS issues:
```python
import logging
# Enable debug logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
logger = logging.getLogger('ssl_utils')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
# Now run your code and check logs
auth = PlayerAuth(use_https=True, verify_ssl=True)
auth.authenticate(...)
```
Look for messages like:
- `Using saved certificate: ~/.kiwy-signage/server_cert.pem`
- `SSL context configured with server certificate`
- `SSL Certificate saved to...`
- `SSL Error: ...` (if there are issues)

# Player Code HTTPS Integration Guide
## Server-Side Improvements Implemented
All critical and medium improvements have been implemented on the server:
### ✅ CORS Support Enabled
- **File**: `app/extensions.py` - CORS extension initialized
- **File**: `app/app.py` - CORS configured for `/api/*` endpoints
- All player API requests now support cross-origin requests
- Preflight OPTIONS requests are properly handled
### ✅ SSL Certificate Endpoint Added
- **Endpoint**: `GET /api/certificate`
- **Location**: `app/blueprints/api.py`
- Returns server certificate in PEM format with metadata:
- Certificate content (PEM format)
- Certificate info (subject, issuer, validity dates, fingerprint)
- Integration instructions for different platforms
### ✅ HTTPS Configuration Updated
- **File**: `app/config.py` - ProductionConfig now has:
- `SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True`
- `SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE = 'Lax'`
- **File**: `nginx.conf` - Added:
- CORS headers for all responses
- OPTIONS request handling
- X-Forwarded-Port header forwarding
### ✅ Nginx Proxy Configuration Enhanced
- Added CORS headers at nginx level for defense-in-depth
- Proper X-Forwarded headers for protocol/port detection
- HTTPS-friendly proxy configuration
---
## Required Player Code Changes
### 1. **For Python/Kivy Players Using Requests Library**
**Update:** Import and use certificate handling:
```python
import requests
from requests.adapters import HTTPAdapter
from requests.packages.urllib3.util.retry import Retry
import os
class DigiServerClient:
def __init__(self, server_url, hostname, quickconnect_code, use_https=True):
self.server_url = server_url
self.hostname = hostname
self.quickconnect_code = quickconnect_code
self.session = requests.Session()
# CRITICAL: Handle SSL verification
if use_https:
# Option 1: Get certificate from server and trust it
self.setup_certificate_trust()
else:
# Option 2: Disable SSL verification (DEV ONLY)
self.session.verify = False
def setup_certificate_trust(self):
"""Download server certificate and configure trust."""
try:
# First, make a request without verification to get the cert
response = requests.get(
f"{self.server_url}/api/certificate",
verify=False,
timeout=5
)
if response.status_code == 200:
cert_data = response.json()
# Save certificate locally
cert_path = os.path.expanduser('~/.digiserver/server_cert.pem')
os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(cert_path), exist_ok=True)
with open(cert_path, 'w') as f:
f.write(cert_data['certificate'])
# Configure session to use this certificate
self.session.verify = cert_path
print(f"✓ Server certificate installed from {cert_data['certificate_info']['issuer']}")
print(f" Valid until: {cert_data['certificate_info']['valid_until']}")
except Exception as e:
print(f"⚠️ Failed to setup certificate trust: {e}")
print(" Falling back to unverified connection (not recommended for production)")
self.session.verify = False
def get_playlist(self):
"""Get playlist from server with proper error handling."""
try:
response = self.session.get(
f"{self.server_url}/api/playlists",
params={
'hostname': self.hostname,
'quickconnect_code': self.quickconnect_code
},
timeout=10
)
response.raise_for_status()
return response.json()
except requests.exceptions.SSLError as e:
print(f"❌ SSL Error: {e}")
# Log error for debugging
print(" This usually means the server certificate is not trusted.")
print(" Try running: DigiServerClient.setup_certificate_trust()")
raise
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError as e:
print(f"❌ Connection Error: {e}")
raise
except Exception as e:
print(f"❌ Error: {e}")
raise
def send_feedback(self, status, message=''):
"""Send player feedback/status to server."""
try:
response = self.session.post(
f"{self.server_url}/api/player-feedback",
json={
'hostname': self.hostname,
'quickconnect_code': self.quickconnect_code,
'status': status,
'message': message,
'timestamp': datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
},
timeout=10
)
response.raise_for_status()
return response.json()
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error sending feedback: {e}")
return None
```
### 2. **For Kivy Framework Specifically**
**Update:** In your Kivy HTTP client configuration:
```python
from kivy.network.urlrequest import UrlRequest
from kivy.logger import Logger
import ssl
import certifi
class DigiServerKivyClient:
def __init__(self, server_url, hostname, quickconnect_code):
self.server_url = server_url
self.hostname = hostname
self.quickconnect_code = quickconnect_code
# Configure SSL context for Kivy requests
self.ssl_context = self._setup_ssl_context()
def _setup_ssl_context(self):
"""Setup SSL context with certificate trust."""
try:
# Try to get server certificate
import requests
response = requests.get(
f"{self.server_url}/api/certificate",
verify=False,
timeout=5
)
if response.status_code == 200:
cert_data = response.json()
cert_path = os._get_cert_path()
with open(cert_path, 'w') as f:
f.write(cert_data['certificate'])
# Create SSL context
context = ssl.create_default_context()
context.load_verify_locations(cert_path)
Logger.info('DigiServer', f'SSL context configured with server certificate')
return context
except Exception as e:
Logger.warning('DigiServer', f'Failed to setup SSL: {e}')
return None
def fetch_playlist(self, callback):
"""Fetch playlist with proper SSL handling."""
url = f"{self.server_url}/api/playlists"
params = f"?hostname={self.hostname}&quickconnect_code={self.quickconnect_code}"
headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'User-Agent': 'Kiwy-Signage-Player/1.0'
}
request = UrlRequest(
url + params,
on_success=callback,
on_error=self._on_error,
on_failure=self._on_failure,
headers=headers
)
return request
def _on_error(self, request, error):
Logger.error('DigiServer', f'Request error: {error}')
def _on_failure(self, request, result):
Logger.error('DigiServer', f'Request failed: {result}')
```
### 3. **Environment Configuration**
**Add to player app_config.json or environment:**
```json
{
"server": {
"url": "https://192.168.0.121",
"hostname": "player1",
"quickconnect_code": "ABC123XYZ",
"verify_ssl": false,
"use_server_certificate": true,
"certificate_path": "~/.digiserver/server_cert.pem"
},
"connection": {
"timeout": 10,
"retry_attempts": 3,
"retry_delay": 5
}
}
```

## Testing Checklist
### Server-Side Tests
- [ ] Verify CORS headers present: `curl -v https://192.168.0.121/api/health`
- [ ] Check certificate endpoint: `curl -k https://192.168.0.121/api/certificate`
- [ ] Test OPTIONS preflight: `curl -X OPTIONS https://192.168.0.121/api/playlists`
- [ ] Verify X-Forwarded headers: `curl -v https://192.168.0.121/`
### Player Connection Tests
- [ ] Player connects with HTTPS successfully
- [ ] Player fetches playlist without SSL errors
- [ ] Player receives status update confirmation
- [ ] Player sends feedback/heartbeat correctly
### Integration Tests
```bash
# Test certificate retrieval
curl -k https://192.168.0.121/api/certificate | jq '.certificate_info'
# Test CORS preflight for player
curl -X OPTIONS https://192.168.0.121/api/playlists \
-H "Origin: http://192.168.0.121" \
-H "Access-Control-Request-Method: GET" \
-v
# Simulate player playlist fetch
curl -k https://192.168.0.121/api/playlists \
--data-urlencode "hostname=test-player" \
--data-urlencode "quickconnect_code=test123" \
-H "Origin: *"
```
---
## Migration Steps
### For Existing Players
1. **Update player code** with new SSL handling from this guide
2. **Restart player application** to pick up changes
3. **Verify connection** works with HTTPS server
4. **Monitor logs** for any SSL-related errors
### For New Players
1. **Deploy updated player code** with SSL support from the start
2. **Configure with HTTPS server URL**
3. **Run initialization** to fetch and trust server certificate
---
## Troubleshooting
### "SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED"
- Player is rejecting the self-signed certificate
- **Solution**: Run certificate trust setup or disable SSL verification
### "Connection Refused"
- Server HTTPS port not accessible
- **Solution**: Check nginx is running, port 443 is open, firewall rules
### "CORS error"
- Browser/HTTP client blocking cross-origin request
- **Solution**: Verify CORS headers in response, check Origin header
### "Certificate not found at endpoint"
- Server certificate file missing
- **Solution**: Verify cert.pem exists at `/etc/nginx/ssl/cert.pem`
---
## Security Recommendations
1. **For Development/Testing**: Disable SSL verification temporarily
```python
session.verify = False
```
2. **For Production**:
- Use proper certificates (Let's Encrypt recommended)
- Deploy certificate trust setup at player initialization
- Monitor SSL certificate expiration
- Implement certificate pinning for critical deployments
3. **For Self-Signed Certificates**:
- Use `/api/certificate` endpoint to distribute certificates
- Store certificates in secure location on device
- Implement certificate update mechanism
- Log certificate trust changes for auditing
---
## Next Steps
1. **Implement SSL handling** in player code using examples above
2. **Test with HTTP first** to ensure API works
3. **Enable HTTPS** and test with certificate handling
4. **Deploy to production** with proper SSL setup
5. **Monitor** player connections and SSL errors
