pyOpenSSL 18.0.0

Python wrapper module around the OpenSSL library

Note: The Python Cryptographic Authority strongly suggests the use of pyca/cryptography where possible. If you are using pyOpenSSL for anything other than making a TLS connection you should move to cryptography and drop your pyOpenSSL dependency.

High-level wrapper around a subset of the OpenSSL library. Includes

• SSL.Connection objects, wrapping the methods of Python’s portable sockets
• Callbacks written in Python
• Extensive error-handling mechanism, mirroring OpenSSL’s error codes

… and much more.

You can find more information in the documentation. Development takes place on GitHub.
