Generate your TLS keys:

openssl genrsa -out key.pem 2048
openssl req -new -key key.pem -out request.pem
openssl x509 -req -days 36500 -in request.pem -signkey key.pem -out cert.pem

Environment variables with examples:

• GEMINI_SERVER_HOSTNAME="0.0.0.0:1965"
• GEMINI_SERVER_TLS_KEY_FILENAME="/where/you/put/key.pem"
• GEMINI_SERVER_TLS_CERT_FILENAME="/where/you/put/cert.pem"
• GEMINI_SERVER_ROOT_DIRECTORY="/files/to/serve"
• RUST_LOG="debug"

Example command:

GEMINI_SERVER_TLS_KEY_FILENAME=/home/user/server/key.pem \
GEMINI_SERVER_TLS_CERT_FILENAME=/home/user/server/cert.pem \
GEMINI_SERVER_ROOT_DIRECTORY=/gemini-root \
RUST_LOG=debug \
