   // if not present, this will generate a dummy CA in cache folder
const vault = new CA('.CA_cache_folder');

//to retrieve a cert/key pair (to use as SSL cert), juste use

const bundle = await vault.getBundle("somedomain.com");
console.log("Cert is", bundle.cert);
console.log("Key is", bundle.key);

// use it at https context if you want 
// file tree is now

const bundle = await vault.getBundle("somedomain.com");
console.log("Cert is", bundle.cert);
console.log("Key is", bundle.key);


//use await vault.getBundle("ca") to retrieve ca if necessary
