Certifi provides Mozilla's carefully curated collection of Root Certificates forvalidating the trustworthiness of SSL certificates while verifying the identityof TLS hosts. It has been extracted from theRequests project.

certifi is available on PyPI. Simply install it withpip:

$ pip install certifi

To reference the installed certificate authority (CA) bundle, you can use thebuilt-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!

Certifi does not support any addition/removal or other modification of theCA trust store content. This project is intended to provide a reliable andhighly portable root of trust to python deployments. Look to upstream projectsfor methods to use alternate trust.
