I have a small node program.

console.log("Program Started");
var http = require('http');

//Configure our HTTP server to respond with Hello World to all requests.
var server = http.createServer(function (request, response) {      
    console.log("Processing Request for URL" + request.url);
    response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/html"});
    response.end("Hello World \n");
});

// Listen on port 8000, IP defaults to 127.0.0.1
server.listen(8000); 
console.log("Program Ended");

If I run this program on my MacBook and access the following URL, I see my Hello World message.

http://localhost:8000/

However, I'd like to have this URL responding to HTTPS connections as well.

https://localhost:8000/

How can I do this with NodeJS?

Can the native http library do this for me? Or will I need Express?
