Erce – The Easy Rest Client for EJBCA

Erce is a fully FOSS REST Client for EJBCA Community Edition. Its purpose is to act as a REST-based alternative to the EJBCA CLI and other enrollment protocols such as SCEP and CMP in environments where the UI is not available/optimal, but also to allow for further scripting by branching and extending this implementation. Erce is compatible with EJBCA 7.9.0.1 and later.

Get started

Erce is a fully self-contained Maven project. To build:

1. Check out a local branch
2. Build and package using Maven (-llr is for newer versions of maven to recognize the local repository in the lib directory):

mvn -llr clean package

3. Run the resulting .jar file with the --help flag to see the available commands.

java -jar target/erce-x.y.x-SNAPSHOT.jar --help

An example command can looks like:

java -jar target/erce-0.0.9-SNAPSHOT.jar enroll genkeys --authkeystore /opt/ejbca/p12/superadmin.p12 --authkeystorepass ****  --endentityprofile "Server" --certificateprofile "Server" --ca ServerCA --subjectaltname "dnsName=test-erces-01.test"  --hostname localhost --destination ./certs --subjectdn "C=SE,O=Keyfactor Community,CN=test-erces-01.test" --username test-erces-01.test -p --keyalg EC --keyspec P-256 --verbose
