how can i integrate ssl in express:

var credentials = {key: privateKey, cert: certificate};

in this code to enable https?: 

var express = require('express');
var app = express();

app.use(express.static('webcontent', {'index': ['client.html']}));

var server = app.listen(8000, function () {
  var host = server.address().address;
  var port = server.address().port;
  console.log('Webserver app listening at http://%s:%s', host, port);
});

the problem is, that i use express.static. and I dont find any sulution how to use it with https.

To enable HTTPS you need to do the following.

var express = require('express');
var https = require('https');
var http = require('http');
var app = express();

http.createServer(app).listen(80);
https.createServer(options, app).listen(443);

app.use(express.static('webcontent', {'index': ['client.html']}));
