===========================
httplib2.system-ca-certs-locater 0.1.2
===========================

This package provides a plug-in to httplib2 to tell it to use the
certificate authority file from the base OS instead of the one in the
httplib2 package. The file from httplib2 is used as a fallback, if the
expected OS-specific file is not found.

Installation
============
First install `pbr`_ package::

$ pip install pbr

Then run::

$ pip install httplib2.system-ca-certs-locater

Setup custom ca_certs file via environment variable
===================================================

You can specify custom path to ca_certs file using
``HTTPLIB_CA_CERTS_PATH``::

import os
os.environ['HTTPLIB_CA_CERTS_PATH'] = '/home/user/my_ca_certs.txt'

Supporting Additional Platforms
===============================

If you are on a platform with a different certificate authority file,
please submit a pull request via `github`_ to add the file to ``get()``.
