How to run jenkins with HTTPS on MacOS-CodePudding

I have a MacOS based Machine, and I am running a Jenkins instance on it. It run with HTTP protocol (http://127.0.0.1:8080). I would like to run it SSL security (https://127.0.0.1:8080).

How to achieve this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I tried running it on 8443 port (127.0.0.1:8443). It didn't work.

If you want your instance to just be available over https, you can configure that with the startup paramters, e.g.:

--httpPort=-1 \
--httpsPort=443 \
--httpsKeyStore=path/to/keystore \
--httpsKeyStorePassword=keystorePassword

The keystore is a Java keystore with your certificate - if you need one, you can use let's encrypt or a self signed one.

For a bigger instance, I would recommend a reverse proxy in front of Jenkins. The documentation how to do this can be found here: https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/system-administration/reverse-proxy-configuration-with-jenkins/
