TLS¶

Enabling feature¶

openssl is not a pure Rust library so you need enable a feature and install the proper package.

To enable the tls feature add in Cargo.toml:

scylla = { version = "0.4", features = ["ssl"] }
openssl = "0.10.32"

Then install the package with openssl:

• Debian/Ubuntu:

  apt install libssl-dev pkg-config
  

• Fedora:

  dnf install openssl-devel
  

• Arch:

  pacman -S openssl pkg-config
  

Using TLS¶

To use tls you will have to create an openssl SslContext and pass it to SessionBuilder

For example, if database certificate is in the file ca.crt:

use scylla::{Session, SessionBuilder};
use openssl::ssl::{SslContextBuilder, SslMethod, SslVerifyMode};
use std::path::PathBuf;

let mut context_builder = SslContextBuilder::new(SslMethod::tls())?;
context_builder.set_ca_file("ca.crt")?;
context_builder.set_verify(SslVerifyMode::PEER);

let session: Session = SessionBuilder::new()
    .known_node("127.0.0.1:9142") // The the port is now 9142
    .ssl_context(Some(context_builder.build()))
    .build()
    .await?;
