Custom CA file (Self signed Certificate)

[jhnnsrs]

Hey everyone,

Amazing work. First time that I run a webrtc framework and it just works :) I am however wondering if there is any plans on supporting custom ca files in the rust (and by extension in the python) client? Or is there any pitfalls that I might be forgetting about?

About my scenario: I would love to run livekit in a local network and stream video feeds (microscopy data) centrally to the server and then to a electron app. Custom certificates shouldn't be a problem in electron land but I am struggling to connect my python based microscope !

Also happy to work on a PR if that could help?

Hey @jhnnsrs, I believe the SDK will load any ca-certs that are installed on the system. Did you try to install it on the system?

also, it sounds like an awesome use case!

hey @davidzhao , again thanks for the great work. i love the simplicity ❤️ .

Did you try to install it on the system?

That would be the dream: I wish we had so much control over the clients on the network. Sadly writing to ca-store needs priviledged access in most OSs, which in most scientific environments is not guaranteed by the system administrators (and changing their minds will not be an option :D) . Maybe allowing an ENV overwrite for the CA-store or preferably beeing able to pass it from python would be amazing. But again maybe i am not seing any other limitations to that approach !
