-# x509-info
-
-At this point it's pretty clear that I'll never remember the syntax for `openssl` to show various information about a certificate. At last I will not have to google for that syntax ever again.
-
-## Usage
-
-```shell
-$ Usage: x509-info [OPTIONS] <DOMAIN>
-
-Arguments:
- <DOMAIN>
- Domain to check
-
-Options:
- -p, --port <PORT>
- Port to check
-
- [default: 443]
-
- -i, --insecure
- Accept invalid certificate
-
- -f, --format <FORMAT>
- [default: short]
-
- Possible values:
- - short: Format the output as one line of plain text
- - long: Format the output as plain text
-
- -h, --help
- Print help information (use `-h` for a summary)
-
- -V, --version
- Print version information
-```
-
-The default format will print a short message:
-
-```shell
-$ x509-info twitter.com
-twitter.com: Mon, 11 Dec 2023 15:59:59 -0800 (257 days left)
-```
-
-It's possible to get more details:
-
-```shell
-$ x509-info --format=long twitter.com
-certificate
- version: V3
- serial: 0a:2c:01:b8:2b:5d:47:73:9a:5a:01:1a:6f:dc:1a:20
- subject: C=US, ST=California, L=San Francisco, O=Twitter, Inc., CN=twitter.com
- issuer: C=US, O=DigiCert Inc, CN=DigiCert TLS RSA SHA256 2020 CA1
- validity
- not before : Sat, 10 Dec 2022 16:00:00 -0800
- not after : Mon, 11 Dec 2023 15:59:59 -0800
- validity days : 365
- remaining days: 257
- SANs:
- DNS:twitter.com
- DNS:www.twitter.com
-```
-
-You can also check expired certificates:
-
-```shell
-$ x509-info --insecure expired.badssl.com
-<no name>: Sun, 12 Apr 2015 16:59:59 -0700 (it expired -2907 days ago)
-```
-
-## Notes
-
-Could the same be achieved with a wrapper around `openssl` ? yes.
