Drop-in Replacement to certifi that includes ICP Brasil root certificates

Project description

PyPI version Build Status

certifi + ICP Brasil

This package is meant to act as a drop-in replacement to certifi for use with requests that includes all of the same Mozilla root CA certificates, but also includes all of the ICP Brasil root CAs made available here.

The reason why this package exists is that for regulatory and political reasons, many Brazilian government websites use the country-specific ICP Brasil certification scheme, which is not distributed by default by major browsers and operating system distributions. This causes a lot of problems for developers that need to programatically interact with those services.

This is an example of the sort of issue you’ll encounter by default:

>>> import requests
>>> requests.get('https://portalunico.siscomex.gov.br/')

Usage

The recommended way of using this package is to take advange of the verify parameter used throughout requests to allow the default root CAs file to be overridden:

>>> import requests
>>> import certifi_icpbr
>>> requests.get('https://portalunico.siscomex.gov.br/', verify=certifi_icpbr.where())
<Response [200]>

Alternatively, it is possible to monkey-patch requests so that it uses this package’s root CAs file by default. This is risky and can stop working in future versions ofrequests, so it is strongly recommended you use the first approach if possible. This is the same example using that approach:

>>> import certifi_icpbr
>>> certifi_icpbr.patch_requests()
>>> import requests
>>> requests.get('https://portalunico.siscomex.gov.br/')
<Response [200]>
