requests-pkcs12 1.27

Usage

For simple one-off requests you can use this library as a drop-in replacement for the requests library:

from requests_pkcs12 import get

r = get('https://example.com/test', pkcs12_filename='clientcert.p12', pkcs12_password='correcthorsebatterystaple')

If you are using requests sessions, use the Pkcs12Adapter:

from requests import Session
from requests_pkcs12 import Pkcs12Adapter

with Session() as s:
    s.mount('https://example.com', Pkcs12Adapter(pkcs12_filename='clientcert.p12', pkcs12_password='correcthorsebatterystaple'))
    r = s.get('https://example.com/test')

Installation

This library is available as PyPI package:

pip install requests-pkcs12

Alternatively, you can retrieve the latest development version via Git:

git clone https://github.com/m-click/requests_pkcs12

Arguments

The following keyword arguments are supported:

• pkcs12_filename is a byte string or unicode string that contains the file name of the encrypted PKCS#12 certificate.

  • Either this argument or pkcs12_data must be provided.

• pkcs12_data is a byte string that contains the encrypted PKCS#12 certificate data.

  • Either this argument or pkcs12_filename must be provided.

• pkcs12_password is a byte string or unicode string that contains the password.

  • This argument must be provided whenever pkcs12_filename or pkcs12_data is provided.

• ssl_protocol is a protocol version from the ssl library.

  • This argument is optional and defaults to ssl.PROTOCOL_TLS.

If you use these parameters, don’t use the built-in cert parameter of requests at the same time. However, do use the other parameters. In particular, do use the “verify” parameter to verify the server-side certificate.
