as specified in the Node api doc I tried the first one with a self created and signed cert using openssl. Everything was going fine except the fact that the couldn't test the client side from an android because it was needed a ca certificate. When I try the second method (that with pfx and not with key,cert) https.createserver throws an error
crypto.js:145
c.context.loadPKCS12(pfx);
^

code from Node Api:
// curl -k https://localhost:8000/
var https = require('https');
var fs = require('fs');
var options = {
key: fs.readFileSync('test/fixtures/keys/agent2-key.pem'),
cert: fs.readFileSync('test/fixtures/keys/agent2-cert.pem')
};
https.createServer(options, function (req, res) {
res.writeHead(200);
res.end("hello world\n");
}).listen(8000);
Or
var https = require('https');
var fs = require('fs');
var options = {
pfx: fs.readFileSync('server.pfx')
};
https.createServer(options, function (req, res) {
res.writeHead(200);
res.end("hello world\n");
}).listen(8000);
well in the pfx case you should add the option
passphrase: 'password'
