Decorators for filtering InsecureRequestWarnings in requests and urllib3 apps
Project description
Decorators for filtering InsecureRequestWarnings in requests and other urllib3-based Python 3 modules
NOTE: tested only for Python3.
When developing applications/modules using the requests module (or using urllib3 directly), it is sometimes useful to disable certificate validation, or to permit consumers/users to do so. However, doing so makes each request issue an InsecureRequestWarning, which is a lot of noise.
filter-certwarning provides two decorators to make this behavior more reasonable.
@filter_certwarning.warnonce causes the warning to be issued only warnonce, the first time the decorated function is called
@filter_certwarning.silent is an alias for @filter_certwarning('ignore'), and causes the warning to be entirely suppressed for that function call
- Examples:
A requests-based app with verification off that issues the warning only warnonce:
import requests import filter_certwarning ... @filter_certwarning.warnonce sub get_data(): # the next line will fire an InsecureRequestWarning the first time this # function is called, but subsequent calls to this function will be silent resp = requests.get('https://localhost/status', verify=False)
The following supresses the warning entirely. This is not recommended unless you’ve given a lot of thought to the security implications and trade-offs.:
import requests import filter_certwarning ... @filter_certwarning.silent sub get_data(): # the next line will fire an InsecureRequestWarning the first time this # function is called, but subsequent calls to this function will be silent resp = requests.get('https://localhost/status', verify=False)
