SSLContext Kickstart is a library which provides a High-Level SSLFactory class for configuring a http client or a server to communicate over SSL/TLS for one way authentication or two-way authentication. It is designed to be as lightweight as possible by having minimized the external dependencies. The core library only depends on the SLF4J logging API.
As a Java developer I worked for different kinds of clients. Most of the time the application required to call other microservices within the organization or some other http servers. These requests needed to be secured, and therefore it was required to load the ssl materials into the http client. Each http client may require different input value to enable https requests, and therefore I couldn't just copy-paste my earlier configuration into the new project. The resulting configuration was in my opinion always verbose, not reusable, hard to test and hard to maintain.
As a developer you also need to know how to properly load your file into your application and consume it as a KeyStore instance. Therefore, you also need to understand how to properly create for example a KeyManager and a TrustManager for you SSLContext. The sslcontext-kickstart library is taking the responsibility of creating an instance of SSLContext from the provided arguments, and it will provide you all the ssl materials which are required to configure 40+ different Http Client for Java, Scala and Kotlin. I wanted the library to be as easy as possible to use for all developers to give them a kickstart when configuring their Http Client. So feel free to provide feedback or feature requests. The library also provides other utilities such as:
- CertificateExtractingClient
- CertificateUtils
- HostnameVerifierUtils
- KeyStoreUtils
- KeyManagerUtils
- TrustManagerUtils
- PemUtils
- ProviderUtils
- SSLContextUtils
- SSLFactoryUtils
- SSLParametersUtils
- SSLSessionUtils
- SSLSocketUtils
See the javadoc for all the options.
I would like to thank Cody A. Ray for his contribution to the community regarding loading multiple Keystores into the SSLContext. The limitation of the JDK is to only support one keystore for the KeyManagerFactory and only one keystore for the TrustManagerFactory. The code snippets which Cody has shared are now available within this library and can be found here: AggregatedX509ExtendedKeyManager and AggregatedX509ExtendedTrustManager
The original content can be found here:
- No need for low-level SSLContext configuration anymore
- No knowledge needed about SSLContext, TrustManager, TrustManagerFactory, KeyManager, KeyManagerFactory and how to create it.
- Above classes will all be created with just providing an identity and a trust material
- Load multiple identities/trustStores/keyManagers/trustManagers
- Hot reload ssl material without need of restarting/recreating Http Client or Server
- Identity material: A KeyStore or KeyManager which holds the key pair also known as private and public key
- Trust material: A KeyStore or TrustManager containing one or more certificates also known as public key. This KeyStore contains a list of trusted certificates
- One way authentication (also known as one way tls, one way ssl): Https connection where the client validates the certificate of the counter party
- Two way authentication (also known as two way tls, two way ssl, mutual authentication): Https connection where the client as well as the counter party validates the certificate, also known as mutual authentication

By default, the TrustManager ships with default validations to validate if the counterparty is trusted during the SSL Handshake. If needed the default behaviour can be overruled by custom validators. If a custom validator is specified and if the condition evaluates to true, then the certificate of the counterparty will be trusted. If the condition evaluates to false, than it will fall back to the default behaviour of the TrustManager.
SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withTrustEnhancer(trustManagerParameters -> {
X509Certificate[] chain = trustManagerParameters.getChain();
return chain[0].getIssuerX500Principal().getName().equals("Foo")
&& chain[0].getSubjectX500Principal().getName().equals("Bar");
})
.build();
By default, a server exposes the list of trusted certificate names if requested by the client. The list of trusted certificate names can be requested with:
openssl s_client -showcerts -servername 127.0.0.1 -connect 127.0.0.1:8443The output will be under Acceptable client certificate CA names:
For some end-user this might lead into information leaks and security risks. This information can be hidden away so the client cannot request it anymore with an additional option within the SSLFactory#withConcealedTrustMaterial(). An example usage would be:
SSLFactory updatedSslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/identity.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/truststore.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withConcealedTrustMaterial()
.build();
Which will result into the following output:
SSLFactory.builder()
.withUnsafeTrustMaterial()
.build();
SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withUnsafeHostnameVerifier()
.build();
SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withSystemTrustMaterial()
.build();
If you are using java 11 or newer, than you are also able to use TLSv1.3 as encryption protocol by default.
SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withProtocols("TLSv1.3", "TLSv1.2")
.withCiphers("TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384", "TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384")
.withHostnameVerifier(hostnameVerifier)
.withSecureRandom(secureRandom)
.build();
If you want to improve or whitelist certain hostnames from the default hostname verifier, you can apply the snippet bellow. If the method body returns true the hostname will be trusted by default
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withHostnameVerifierEnhancer(parameters -> "localhost".equals(parameters.getHostname()))
.build();
SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-1.jks", password)
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-2.jks", password)
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-3.jks", password)
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-4.jks", password)
.withTrustMaterial("truststore-1.jks", password)
.withTrustMaterial("truststore-2.jks", password)
.withTrustMaterial("truststore-3.jks", password)
.withTrustMaterial("truststore-4.jks", password)
.build();
In some use cases multiple identities can fail to work. If that happens please try to add the additional SSLFactory option of identity route. See here for more: Routing identity to specific host
X509ExtendedKeyManager keyManager = ...
X509ExtendedTrustManager trustManager = ...
SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(keyManager)
.withTrustMaterial(trustManager)
.build();
In some use cases it may be useful to use a dummy identity or trust material. An example use case would be to create a base SSLFactory with the dummies which can be swapped afterwords. See below for a refactored version of Support for swapping KeyManager and TrustManager at runtime.
SSLFactory baseSslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDummyIdentityMaterial()
.withDummyTrustMaterial()
.withSwappableIdentityMaterial()
.withSwappableTrustMaterial()
.build();

.sslParameters(sslFactory.getSslParameters())

.build()
Runnable sslUpdater = () -> {
SSLFactory updatedSslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/identity.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/truststore.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.build();
SSLFactoryUtils.reload(baseSslFactory, updatedSslFactory);
};
// initial update of ssl material to replace the dummies
sslUpdater.run();
// update ssl material every hour
Executors.newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor().scheduleAtFixedRate(sslUpdater, 1, 1, TimeUnit.HOURS);
HttpResponse<String> response = httpClient.send(aRequest, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString());
KeyStore keyStore = ...
X509ExtendedKeyManager keyManager = KeyManagerUtils.createKeyManager(keyStore, Map.of(
"foo","foo-password".toCharArray(),
"bar","bar-password".toCharArray(),
"lorum-ipsum","lorum-ipsum-password".toCharArray()
));
SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(keyManager)
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.build();
PrivateKey privateKey = ...
char[] privateKeyPassword = ...
Certificate[] certificateChain = ...
Certificate trustedCertificate = ...
SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(privateKey, privateKeyPassword, certificateChain)
.withTrustMaterial(trustedCertificate)
.build();
It is possible to reload or update the ssl configuration while already using it with your client or server without the need of restarting your application or recreating it with SSLFactory. The identity and trust material may expire at some point in time and needs to be replaced to be still functional. Restart of the application with a traditional setup is unavoidable and can result into a downtime for x amount of time. A restart is not needed when using the setup below. The below example is a high-level method of reloading the ssl configuration, if you prefer to use a low-level setup please have a look at the following example displayed here: Hot swap KeyManager and TrustManager at runtime.
SSLFactory baseSslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDummyIdentityMaterial()
.withDummyTrustMaterial()
.withSwappableIdentityMaterial()
.withSwappableTrustMaterial()
.build();
HttpClient httpClient = HttpClient.newBuilder()
.sslParameters(sslFactory.getSslParameters())
.sslContext(sslFactory.getSslContext())
.build()
Runnable sslUpdater = () -> {
SSLFactory updatedSslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/identity.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/truststore.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.build();
SSLFactoryUtils.reload(baseSslFactory, updatedSslFactory);
};
// initial update of ssl material to replace the dummies
sslUpdater.run();
// update ssl material every hour
Executors.newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor().scheduleAtFixedRate(sslUpdater, 1, 1, TimeUnit.HOURS);
HttpResponse<String> response = httpClient.send(aRequest, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString());
See here for a basic reference implementation for a server: GitHub - Instant SSL Reloading The code example above cleans the cache instantly which forces any client or server to create a new ssl session and so it requires a new ssl handshake. If you prefer to use existing ssl session for existing connection, but want to use a new ssl session for new clients or servers, then you can use the following snippet below. In that way existing connections which already have done the ssl handshake won't require to do another handshake till the ssl session expires with the default timeout.
SSLFactoryUtils.reload(baseSslFactory, updatedSslFactory, false);
See also here for other examples:

- Instant Server SSL Reloading with Spring Boot and Tomcat
- Instant Server SSL Reloading with Vert.x
- Instant Server SSL Reloading with Netty
- Instant Server SSL Reloading with gRPC
- Instant Server SSL Reloading with Spring Boot and Jetty and Database
- Instant Server SSL Reloading with Quarkus
Additionally the SSL parameters can also be reloaded such as ciphers. A basic example is demonstrated below:
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/identity.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/truststore.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withSwappableSslParameters()
.build();
sslFactory.getSslParameters().setCipherSuites(new String[]{"TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256"})
Please note that this might not work for all http clients and servers. It works out of the box with Jetty, but for Netty it needs some additional configuration see the code snippet below. It basically depends on how the http client or server uses the ciphers or other ssl properties during the ssl handshake. Please be aware that this option has some limitations/drawbacks. It might cause other options of a server not to work, so it is advised to test this option in dept. If it breaks your server configuration such as ALPN I would not recommend to use reloadable ssl parameters. Updating your server properties and running a rolling update/restarting your server would be a better option.
The option below might be needed for some servers/clients to reload ssl parameters, for example Netty Server.
SSLFactory sslFactory = ... // your initialized SSLFactory similar to the above one with SwappableSslParameters
Provider provider = ProviderUtils.create(sslFactory);
Security.insertProviderAt(provider, 1);
// Initialize your server at this point
It is possible to swap a KeyManager and TrustManager from a SSLContext, SSLSocketFactory and SSLServerSocketFactory while already using it within your client or server at runtime. This option will enable to refresh the identity and trust material of a server or client without the need of restarting your application or recreating it with SSLFactory. The identity and trust material may expire at some point in time and needs to be replaced to be still functional. Restart of the application with a traditional setup is unavoidable and can result into a downtime for x amount of time. A restart is not needed when using the setup below.
SSLFactory baseSslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/identity.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/truststore.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withSwappableIdentityMaterial()
.withSwappableTrustMaterial()
.build();
HttpClient httpClient = HttpClient.newBuilder()
.sslParameters(sslFactory.getSslParameters())
.sslContext(sslFactory.getSslContext())
.build()
// execute https request
HttpResponse<String> response = httpClient.send(aRequest, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString());
SSLFactory updatedSslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/identity.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/truststore.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.build();
// swap identity and trust materials and reuse existing http client
KeyManagerUtils.swapKeyManager(baseSslFactory.getKeyManager().get(), updatedSslFactory.getKeyManager().get());
TrustManagerUtils.swapTrustManager(baseSslFactory.getTrustManager().get(), updatedSslFactory.getTrustManager().get());
// Cleanup old ssl sessions by invalidating them all. Forces to use new ssl sessions which will be created by the swapped KeyManager/TrustManager
SSLSessionUtils.invalidateCaches(baseSslFactory.getSslContext());
HttpResponse<String> response = httpClient.send(aRequest, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString());
See here for a basic reference implementation for a server: GitHub - Instant SSL Reloading
Although it is possible to reload the complete trust material as shown before in Reloading SSL at runtime and Hot swap KeyManager and TrustManager at runtime, in some occasions you might want the trust additional new certificates without reloading all the trust material as it might be redundant. Especially if you want to keep other trust material intact which is already loaded to your SSLFactory and you don't want it to be reloaded. An example use case would be using the JDK and OS trusted Certificates Authorities and your custom truststore which can grow over time. See below for two examples:
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withSystemTrustMaterial()
.withInflatableTrustMaterial()
.build();
List<X509Certificate> certificates = ... ; // after some point in time you have a couple of new CA which you want to trust
TrustManagerUtils.addCertificate(sslFactory.getTrustManager().get(), certificates);
With the option below your newly trusted certificates will be also stored on the file-system. If the file exists then it will first read and append to it. The predicate is thread-safe and can be used for example prompting the user to trust the certificate if integrated in a GUI.
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withSystemTrustMaterial()
.withInflatableTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/truststore.p12"), "password".toCharArray(), "PKCS12", trustManagerParameters -> {
// do some validation to decide whether to trust this certificate
return true;
})
.build();
A proof-of-concept is available here: GitHub - Trust Me which demonstrates how it can be integrated in a GUI and prompting the end-user to either trust or reject the server certificate. It will be applied instantly and the ssl configuration will be reloaded.
It may occur that the client is sending the wrong certificate to the server when using multiple identities. This will happen when the client certificate has insufficient information for the underlying ssl engine (the KeyManager) and therefore it cannot select the right certificate. Recreating the certificates can resolve this issue. However, if that is not possible you can provide an option to the engine to use a specific certificate for a given server. Below is an example setup for correctly routing the client identity based on the alias which can be found within the KeyStore file.
SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-1.jks", password)
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-2.jks", password)
.withTrustMaterial("truststore.jks", password)
.withIdentityRoute("client-alias-one", "https://localhost:8443/", "https://localhost:8453/")
.withIdentityRoute("client-alias-two", "https://localhost:8463/", "https://localhost:8473/")
.build();
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-1.jks", password)
.withIdentityMaterial("identity-2.jks", password)
.withTrustMaterial("truststore.jks", password)
.withIdentityRoute("client-alias-one", "https://localhost:8443/", "https://localhost:8453/")
.withIdentityRoute("client-alias-two", "https://localhost:8463/", "https://localhost:8473/")
.build();
X509ExtendedKeyManager keyManager = sslFactory.getKeyManager().get()
// Add additional routes next to the existing ones
KeyManagerUtils.addIdentityRoute(keyManager, "client-alias-one", "https://localhost:8463/", "https://localhost:8473/")
// Override existing routes
KeyManagerUtils.overrideIdentityRoute(keyManager, "client-alias-two", "https://localhost:9463/", "https://localhost:9473/")
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial("identity.jks", "password".toCharArray())
.withTrustMaterial("truststore.jks", "password".toCharArray())
.withSessionTimeout(3600) // Amount of seconds until it will be invalidated
.withSessionCacheSize(1024) // Amount of bytes until it will be invalidated
.build();
SSLContext sslContext = sslFactory.getSslContext();
// Caches can be invalidated with the snippet below
SSLSessionUtils.invalidateCaches(sslContext);
// or any other option:
SSLSessionUtils.invalidateCachesBefore(
sslContext,
ZonedDateTime.of(LocalDateTime.of(2021, JANUARY, 1, 15, 55), ZoneOffset.UTC)
);
SSLSessionUtils.invalidateCachesAfter(
sslContext,
ZonedDateTime.of(LocalDateTime.of(2021, FEBRUARY, 10, 8, 14), ZoneOffset.UTC)
);
SSLSessionUtils.invalidateCachesBetween(
sslContext,
ZonedDateTime.now().minusHours(2), // from
ZonedDateTime.now() // up till
);

List<X509Certificate> certificates = CertificateUtils.getCertificatesFromExternalSource(proxy, passwordAuthentication, "https://github.com/");
All previous examples are also available for extracting the server certificates as pem. The method has an additional asPem suffix. See below for all of the examples:
// single

// proxy
Proxy proxy = new Proxy(Proxy.Type.HTTP, new InetSocketAddress("my-custom-host", 1234));
certificates = CertificateUtils.getCertificatesFromExternalSource(proxy, "https://github.com/");
// proxy + authentication
PasswordAuthentication passwordAuthentication = new PasswordAuthentication("foo", "bar".toCharArray());
certificates = CertificateUtils.getCertificatesFromExternalSource(proxy, passwordAuthentication, "https://github.com/");

X509ExtendedKeyManager keyManager = PemUtils.loadIdentityMaterial("certificate.pem", "private-key.pem", "secret".toCharArray());
Below is an example of the classic configuration for enabling ssl for your application.
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/path/to/truststore.jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=changeit
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreProvider=SunJSSE
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=/path/to/keystore.jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStoreType=jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=changeit
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStoreProvider=SunJSSE
-Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.3
-Dhttps.cipherSuites=TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
SSLFactory can be used with these properties together with the existing properties with the following snippet:
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withSystemPropertyDerivedIdentityMaterial()
.withSystemPropertyDerivedTrustMaterial()
.withSystemPropertyDerivedProtocols()
.withSystemPropertyDerivedCiphers()
.build();
SSLContext.setDefault(sslFactory.getSslContext());
The SSLFactory returnable values can be supplied to the http client as shown here
If it is not possible to adjust the ssl configuration of a server or client because it is using the default ssl configuration or using a pre-configured, then you can give the snippet below a try.
The snippet below will ensure the default SSLContext will be the one which is constructed by SSLFactory and the Security utility of Java will also use the SSLContext of SSLFactory if it is initialized with SSLContext.getInstance("TLS") or any of the following protocols: SSL, SSLv2, SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3
See also a working demo here: Bypassing and overruling SSL configuration of libraries
// The SSLFactory below is just an example, use your own custom initialized one here
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.withSystemTrustMaterial()
.build();
Provider provider = ProviderUtils.create(sslFactory);
Security.insertProviderAt(provider, 1);
SSLContext.setDefault(sslFactory.getSslContext());
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withTrustMaterial(Paths.get("/path/to/your/truststore.jks"), "password".toCharArray())
.withLoggingTrustMaterial()
.build();
// run your server or client and analyse the logs
You will get a log message which is similar to the following one:
Validating the certificate chain of the server[google.com:443] with authentication type RSA, while also using the SSLEngine. See below for the full chain of the server:

The SSLFactory can be mapped easily if it needs additional intermediate steps before it can be used fully used, such as using it with a Netty or Apache client. Below is an example for Netty with Spring WebClient.
import io.netty.handler.ssl.SslContext;
import nl.altindag.ssl.SSLFactory;
import nl.altindag.ssl.netty.util.NettySslUtils;
import org.springframework.http.client.reactive.ReactorClientHttpConnector;
import org.springframework.web.reactive.function.client.WebClient;
import reactor.netty.http.client.HttpClient;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLException;
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) throws SSLException {
WebClient webClient = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.build()
.map(NettySslUtils::forClient)
.map(SslContextBuilder::build)
.map(sslContext -> HttpClient.create().secure(sslSpec -> sslSpec.sslContext(sslContext)))
.map(ReactorClientHttpConnector::new)
.map(httpConnector -> WebClient.builder().clientConnector(httpConnector).build())
.get();
}
}The SSLFactory provides different kinds of returnable values, see below for all the options:
import nl.altindag.ssl.SSLFactory;
import nl.altindag.ssl.model.KeyStoreHolder;
import javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLContext;

import java.util.List;
import java.util.Optional;
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withIdentityMaterial("keystore.p12", "secret".toCharArray(), "PKCS12")
.withTrustMaterial("truststore.p12", "secret".toCharArray(), "PKCS12")
.build();
SSLContext sslContext = sslFactory.getSslContext();
HostnameVerifier hostnameVerifier = sslFactory.getHostnameVerifier();
Optional<X509ExtendedKeyManager> keyManager = sslFactory.getKeyManager();
Optional<X509ExtendedTrustManager> trustManager = sslFactory.getTrustManager();
Optional<KeyManagerFactory> keyManagerFactory = sslFactory.getKeyManagerFactory();
Optional<TrustManagerFactory> trustManagerFactory = sslFactory.getTrustManagerFactory();
List<X509Certificate> trustedCertificates = sslFactory.getTrustedCertificates();
SSLSocketFactory sslSocketFactory = sslFactory.getSslSocketFactory();
SSLServerSocketFactory sslServerSocketFactory = sslFactory.getSslServerSocketFactory();
SSLEngine sslEngine = sslFactory.getSslEngine(host, port);
SSLParameters sslParameters = sslFactory.getSslParameters();
List<String> ciphers = sslFactory.getCiphers();
List<String> protocols = sslFactory.getProtocols();
}
}Some http clients relay on different ssl classes from third parties and require mapping from SSLFactory to those libraries. Below you will find the maven dependency which will provide the mapping and also the SSLFactory library. When using one of the below libraries, it is not required to also explicitly include sslcontext-kickstart into your project. The additional mappers for specific libraries below won't provide transitive dependencies on Netty, Jetty or Apache. This has been decided to prevent dependency hell on your side.
Some know http clients which relay on netty libraries are: Spring WebFlux WebClient Netty, Async Http Client and Dispatch Reboot Http Client.
<dependency>
<groupId>io.github.hakky54</groupId>
<artifactId>sslcontext-kickstart-for-netty</artifactId>
<version>8.3.7</version>
</dependency>Example setup for Spring WebClient with Netty:

import org.springframework.http.client.reactive.ReactorClientHttpConnector;
import org.springframework.web.reactive.function.client.WebClient;
import reactor.netty.http.client.HttpClient;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLException;
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) throws SSLException {
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()
.withDefaultTrustMaterial()
.build();
SslContext sslContext = NettySslUtils.forClient(sslFactory).build();
HttpClient httpClient = HttpClient.create()
.secure(sslSpec -> sslSpec.sslContext(sslContext));
WebClient webClient = WebClient.builder()
.clientConnector(new ReactorClientHttpConnector(httpClient))
.build();
}

public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SSLFactory sslFactory = SSLFactory.builder()

.build();
SslContextFactory.Client sslContextFactory = JettySslUtils.forClient(sslFactory);
HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient(sslContextFactory);
WebClient webClient = WebClient.builder()
.clientConnector(new JettyClientHttpConnector(httpClient))
.build();
}
}Apache Http Client works with javax.net.ssl.SSLContext, so an additional mapping to their library is not required, see here. However it is still possible to configure the http client with their custom configuration class. you can find below an example configuration for that use case:
