twisted.protocols.amp._NoCertificate class documentation

Part of twisted.protocols.amp (View In Hierarchy)

This is for peers which don't want to use a local certificate. Used by AMP because AMP's internal language is all about certificates and this duck-types in the appropriate place; this API isn't really stable though, so it's not exposed anywhere public.

For clients, it will use ephemeral DH keys, or whatever the default is for certificate-less clients in OpenSSL. For servers, it will generate a temporary self-signed certificate with garbage values in the DN and use that.

Method __init__ Create a _NoCertificate which either is or isn't for the client side of the connection.
Method options Behaves like twisted.internet.ssl.PrivateCertificate.options().
def __init__(self, client):

Create a _NoCertificate which either is or isn't for the client side of the connection.

ParametersclientTrue if we are a client and should truly have no certificate and be anonymous, False if we are a server and actually have to generate a temporary certificate. (type: bool)
def options(self, *authorities):

Behaves like twisted.internet.ssl.PrivateCertificate.options().
