Add support to a self signed certificate

[bilthon]

I've been trying to do this myself for the last couple of days but without much success. I've tried to follow the steps outlined here. Using my own certificate created by this command:

sudo openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /etc/ssl/nginx.key -out /etc/ssl/nginx.crt

I'm using an nginx frontend correctly configured, since I can access the parse-server urls via browser, albeit with the security exception warning.

Does anyone have any advice on how to proceed?

Use https://letsencrypt.org/ , it's free, pretty easy to use, open-source and takes only 1 hour to get used to it.

I am using Let's Encrypt but I got SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out when calling a cloud function. Not sure if it's really supported.
