SSL on localhost?

Is it possible to run the localhost Meteor instance via SSL? Adding force-ssl does not help, as it still allows http connections for convenience.

Why do you want to have localhost with ssl?

I want to test the Firefox screen sharing feature. This insists on SSL, even on localhost. (Chrome does not.)

I guess you can’t do that then.

Hm, no way to do this? I’m trying ngrok now. Maybe this works.

Yes you can. Take look at https://github.com/nourharidy/meteor-ssl and https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/ssl-certificate-self
