Python interface to the OpenSSL library

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

Python wrapper around a small 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. 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.
