Command line PCAP decyryption with TLS Key log file

I have a PCAP file I am trying to decrypt, and a TLS keylog file produced by nodejs (using the --tls-keylog option)

I am trying to convert the HTTP messaging inside the PCAP file into WARC format, but cannot figure out how to use the command line tshark util to decrypt the relevant traffic. I can do so in the Wireshark UI by updating TLS PMS setting and then right clicking and choosing to follow the HTTP stream, how can I recreate this behaviour with tshark?

I'd also like to print out the "follow" view for _all_ HTTP connections in a PCAP file (including HTTPS and HTTP2), in JSON format if possible? thanks!

Breaking this into "TLS keys" and "how to follow".

Peter's slides available here Debugging TLS issues with Wireshark.

Also check the Wireshark wiki page for TLS. Sections for Embedding decryption secrets in a pcapng file and Preference Settings (hint: tls.keylog_file)

The tshark man page documents the follow option:

-z follow,prot,mode,filter[,range]
Displays the contents of a TCP or UDP stream between two nodes. The data sent by the second node is prefixed with a tab to differentiate it from the data sent by the first node.

prot specifies the transport protocol. It can be one of:

tcp   TCP
udp   UDP
tls   TLS or SSL
http  HTTP streams
http2 HTTP/2 streams
quic  QUIC streams
