The repository contains a solution to create X.509 certificates according to Avviso SPID n.29 v3.
NOTE: The solution is provided "AS-IS" and does not represent an official implementation from Agenzia per l'Italia Digitale.
-
Create and edit the
docker.env
file according to your needs (see Configuration parameters)$ cp public.env.example docker.env $ editor docker.env
-
Run the script
gencert-with-docker.sh
$ chmod +x gencert-with-docker.sh $ ./gencert-with-docker.sh
-
Enjoy with your new private key (
key.pem
) and self-signed certificate (crt.pem
)$ ls ./generated-certs/ crt.pem csr.pem key.pem
NOTE: This generates also a certificate signing request (
csr.pem
) that can be submitted to AgID in order to obtain a signed certificate.
-
Run the following commands to configure the environment according to your needs (see Configuration parameters)
$ cat > myenv.sh <<EOF export COMMON_NAME="Comune di Roma" export DAYS="3650" export ENTITY_ID="https://spid.comune.roma.it/metadata" export KEY_LEN="3072" export LOCALITY_NAME="Roma" export MD_ALG="sha512" export ORGANIZATION_IDENTIFIER="PA:IT-c_h501" export ORGANIZATION_NAME="Comune di Roma" EOF $ chmod +x myenv.sh && source myenv.sh
-
Generate the private key (
key.pem
), the self-signed certificate (crt.pem
) and the certificate signing request (csr.pem
) with the following command$ chmod +x gencert-public.sh $ ./gencert-public.sh
The output produced by the script (see the ASN.1 dumps) allows to check if the specifications were honoured.

Create and edit the
docker.env
file according to your needs (see Configuration parameters)$ cp private.env.example docker.env $ editor docker.env
-
Run the script
gencert-with-docker.sh
$ chmod +x gencert-with-docker.sh $ ./gencert-with-docker.sh
-
Enjoy with your new private key (
key.pem
) and CSR (csr.pem
)$ ls ./generated-certs/ csr.pem key.pem
-
Run the following commands to configure the environment according to your needs
$ cat > myenv.sh <<EOF export COMMON_NAME="Comune di Roma" export ENTITY_ID="https://spid.comune.roma.it/metadata" export KEY_LEN="3072" export LOCALITY_NAME="Roma" export MD_ALG="sha256" export ORGANIZATION_IDENTIFIER="VATIT-02438750586" export ORGANIZATION_NAME="Comune di Roma" EOF $ chmod +x myenv.sh && source myenv.sh
-
Generate the private key (
key.pem
) and the certificate signing request (csr.pem
) with the following command$ chmod +x gencert-private.sh $ ./gencert-private.sh
The following steps can be followed to verify the compliancy of certificates generated with the tools in this repository and certificates generated/obtained from third parties.
Run the script validate-crt-with-docker.sh
$ chmod +x validate-crt-with-docker.sh
$ ./validate-crt-with-docker.sh
By default, it will validate the certificate at
generated-certs/crt.pem
Such a default path can be modified by setting the CERT_FILE
envvar
$ chmod +x validate-crt-with-docker.sh
$ CERT_FILE=/absolute/path/to/your/crt.pem ./validate-crt-with-docker.sh
NOTE: The first script execution could take some time, because the Docker image needs to be built. Following execution will be immediate.
Install the required Python packages
$ cd validator
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Run the Python tests suite
$ ./validator.py
By default, it will validate the certificate at
./crt.pem
Such a default path can be modified by setting the CERT_FILE
envvar
$ CERT_FILE=/path/to/your/crt.pem ./validator.py
This section documents the configuration parameters that can be set as environment variable.
