Request, Error: unable to verify the first certificate

Question

I wanted to make simple POST HTTP request by using request module:

var request = require("request");
var form = {form: {some: "form", attributes: "attrs"}}
request.post("https://example.com", form)
   .on('response', function(response) {

   if (response.statusCode === 200) {
     console.log("DONE");
   } else {
     console.log("FAIL");
   }
});

When I launch this code it throws me this error message:

Error: unable to verify the first certificate
at Error (native)
at TLSSocket.<anonymous> (_tls_wrap.js:1057:38)
at emitNone (events.js:67:13)
at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:166:7)
at TLSSocket._finishInit (_tls_wrap.js:596:8)

I think this is happening because url has https , but I don't know how to fix this error.

How to disable checking certificate?

Answer 1

Add "rejectUnauthorized": false as option:

request.post({url: "https://example.com", "rejectUnauthorized": false}, form)
   .on('response', function(response) {

   if (response.statusCode === 200) {
     console.log("DONE");
   } else {
     console.log("FAIL");
   }
});

Or add the appropiate certificate via https://www.npmjs.com/package/ssl-root-cas

require('ssl-root-cas').inject();

您可以尝试在 File->Settings Settings 图像下禁用 ssl 证书验证
