ct-submit
=========

Introduction
------------

`ct-submit` is a program that submits X.509 certificate chains to
[Certificate Transparency][ct] log servers. It returns the Signed Certificate
Timestamp structure in a format suitable for use with Apache's
[mod\_ssl\_ct][apache] module and [nginx-ct][nginx].

Building
--------

`ct-submit` is written in [Go][go]. Just run `go build` to build it.

Usage
-----

`ct-submit` takes a single argument - the URL of the log server. If the scheme
is not specified it defaults to `https://`. It reads the certificate chain in
PEM format from `stdin`. The leaf certificate should be the first certificate
in the chain, followed by any intermediate certificates and, optionally, the
root certificate.

The encoded SCT structure is written in binary to `stdout`.

The following example demonstrates submitting the chain in `gpe.pem` to
Google's pilot log server. The SCT is written to `gpe.sct`, which is in a format
suitable for use with Apache's mod\_ssl\_ct module and nginx-ct.

$ ./ct-submit ct.googleapis.com/pilot gpe.sct
$ xxd gpe.sct
