CertStream-Java

See SSL certs as they're issued live.

This is a library for interacting with the certstream network to monitor an aggregated feed from a collection of Certificate Transparency Lists.

For this project I used only the very bare necessities to avoid causing dependency issues for folks downstream. The three libraries are:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.java-websocket</groupId>
            <artifactId>Java-WebSocket</artifactId>
            <version>1.4.0</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
            <version>1.7.30</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.google.code.gson</groupId>
            <artifactId>gson</artifactId>
            <version>2.8.6</version>
        </dependency>

You need a java version later than Java 8u101 - earlier ones don't support the Let's Encrypt certificates used on our server.

You will note that there is no SLF4J appender in that list. The logging is up to you. If you're using SLF4J already it will just spit out the messages. If you aren't it is super cool and I very deeply hope you consider taking a look, it will make your logging better and your life richer. When I started working on this project I stuggled for a while with how to write the interface. I've mostly written abandonware or corporate stuff so I wasn't really sure where to start. Then someone (who wishes to remain nameless) suggested that I write an interface I would want to use and then write the implementation around that. So I did. I hope you like how it turned out.

Installing

Step 1: Add Repository to pom.xml:

<repository>
    <id>jitpack.io</id>
    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
</repository>

Step 2: Add dependency to pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.CaliDog</groupId>
    <artifactId>certstream-java</artifactId>
    <version>0.3</version>
</dependency>

Usage

The main interface for this project is two functions, both of which take a single Consumer (read Lambda) as an argument. All you have to do is say what you want to do with the data and this library does the rest. Either pass a Consumer<String> into CertStream.onMessageString() or a Consumer<CertStreamMessage> into CertStream.onMessage(). All you have to to is use the -> or the ::. No really, take a look:

package example;

import com.google.gson.Gson;
import io.calidog.certstream.CertStream;

/**
 * Prints out Messages
 */
public class ExampleClient {

    /**
     * Main method
     * @param args unused
     */
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        //string version of the message
        CertStream.onMessageString(System.out::println);


        CertStream.onMessage(msg -> System.out.println(new Gson().toJson(msg)));
    }
}

Example data structure

The data structure coming from CertStream looks like this:

    "data": {
