Something like this for inspiration:
``` scala
implicit val system = ActorSystem()
implicit val mat = ActorMaterializer()
implicit val dispatcher = system.dispatcher
val sslConfig = AkkaSSLConfig().mapSettings { s =>
// TODO implement this: s.withServerKey
s
}
val https: HttpsConnectionContext = Http().createServerHttpsContext(sslConfig)
val routes: Route =
get {
complete("Hello world!")
}
// bind to default port for HTTPS (433):
Http().bindAndHandle(routes, "127.0.0.1", connectionContext = https)
```
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the Scala entry points named in the issue: AkkaSSLConfig, createServerHttpsContext, and bindAndHandle. Review how the proposed SSL-Config flow should supply server settings, then verify that the example can bind an HTTPS server through the connection context shown.
