https

Purpose

This is a sample setup to demonstrate how to configure Orthanc with HTTPS.

In this demo, we are using self-signed certificate but, for a real life system, you should of course use certificate signed by a standard CA authority.

This demo also enables the OHIF viewer to validate that it works correctly in a HTTP environment (this is required for using e.g. SharedArrayBuffer)

Description

This demo contains:

• a script to generate self-signed certificate
• an Orthanc container.

Starting the setup

• First, you'll need to generate keys and certificates for all modules. Go in the tls folder and type generate-tls.sh
• To start the setup, type: docker-compose up

demo

• Orthanc UI is accessible at https://localhost/ui/app/. Since you are using self-signed certificate, your browser should complain that the connection is not secure.
• upload a study to Orthanc A
• once the study has been uploaded, open it in the OHIF viewer.
• note the IP address of your machine e.g: 192.168.0.10 and make sure your firewall does not block port 443
• from a remote computer, open https://192.168.0.10/ui/app/
