ConnectionOptions.pskCallback - tls - Node documentation
method ConnectionOptions.pskCallback

Usage in Deno

import { type ConnectionOptions } from "node:tls";
ConnectionOptions.pskCallback(hint: string | null): PSKCallbackNegotation | null

When negotiating TLS-PSK (pre-shared keys), this function is called with optional identity hint provided by the server or null in case of TLS 1.3 where hint was removed. It will be necessary to provide a custom tls.checkServerIdentity() for the connection as the default one will try to check hostname/IP of the server against the certificate but that's not applicable for PSK because there won't be a certificate present. More information can be found in the RFC 4279.

Parameters

hint: string | null

message sent from the server to help client decide which identity to use during negotiation. Always null if TLS 1.3 is used.

Return Type

Return null to stop the negotiation process. psk must be compatible with the selected cipher's digest. identity must use UTF-8 encoding.
