How to start a RESTful web service on top of the service stack on the https (ssl) channel

Question

I looked at the documentation and examples in the service stack library and searched for it, but could not find a way to create the ssl web service (https). In particular, in the example, I run a console example (really cool) that extends the AppHostHttpListenerBase class. I would like to run it using https.

You must install the server certificate for the Http listener, here is an example of how to do this:
