Certifi: Python SSL Certificates
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
Certifi provides Mozilla's carefully curated collection of Root Certificates for
|
|
validating the trustworthiness of SSL certificates while verifying the identity
|
|
of TLS hosts. It has been extracted from the `Requests`_ project.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
``certifi`` is available on PyPI. Simply install it with ``pip``::
|
|
|
|
$ pip install certifi
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
To reference the installed certificate authority (CA) bundle, you can use the
|
|
built-in function::
|
|
|
|
>>> import certifi
|
|
|
|
>>> certifi.where()
|
|
'/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/certifi/cacert.pem'
|
|
|
|
Or from the command line::
|
|
|
|
$ python -m certifi
|
|
/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/certifi/cacert.pem
|
|
|
|
Enjoy!

Addition/Removal of Certificates
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Certifi does not support any addition/removal or other modification of the
|
|
CA trust store content. This project is intended to provide a reliable and
|
|
highly portable root of trust to python deployments. Look to upstream projects
|
|
for methods to use alternate trust.
