*WARNING*: Don’t do this at home!
As part of our GraphQL toolchain we are using graphql-codegen to generate the necessary typescript files from the GraphQL schema and the queries in our application.
GraphQL-codegen is a node.js application that is using graphql-toolkit behind the scenes.
When trying to parse the schema from a site hosted on localhost, the application failed with the following error message;
Unable to verify first certificate
We fixed it by applying a dirty hack:
set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0
Never do this on production!
