<config_file>: file path to the configuration file.
If -config is not specified, the default value helper.conf is assumed.
The flag -exitWhenReady is also supported.

cmd |
The path to the process to launch. | "ghostunnel" |
cmd_args |
The arguments of the process to launch. | "server --listen localhost:8002 --target localhost:8001--keystore certs/svid_key.pem --cacert certs/svid_bundle.pem --allow-uri-san spiffe://example.org/Database" |
cert_dir |
Directory name to store the fetched certificates. This directory must be created previously. | "certs" |
exit_when_ready |
Fetch x509 certificate and then exit(0) | true |
add_intermediates_to_bundle |
Add intermediate certificates into Bundle file instead of SVID file. | true |
renew_signal |
The signal that the process to be launched expects to reload the certificates. It is not supported on Windows. | "SIGUSR1" |
svid_file_name |
