wincertstore 0.1

Example

import wincertstore
for storename in ("CA", "ROOT"):
    with wincertstore.CertSystemStore(storename) as store:
        for cert in store.itercerts():
            print(cert.get_pem().decode("ascii")

For Python versions without the with statement:

for storename in ("CA", "ROOT"):
    store = wincertstore.CertSystemStore(storename)
    try:
        for cert in store.itercerts():
            print(cert.get_pem().decode("ascii")
    finally:
        store.close()

See CertOpenSystemStore

CertFile helper:

import wincertstore
import atexit
import ssl

certfile = wincertstore.CertFile()
certfile.addstore("CA")
certfile.addstore("ROOT")
atexit.register(certfile.close) # cleanup and remove files on shutdown)

ssl_sock = ssl.wrap_socket(sock,
                           ca_certs=certfile.name,
                           cert_reqs=ssl.CERT_REQUIRED)
