| 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. |
