httpx-pki¶
PKCS#12 client-certificate (mTLS) sessions for httpx2 and httpx.
httpx-pki gives you an httpx client that presents a client certificate, loaded
from wherever your certificate actually lives — a .p12/.pfx bundle, a PEM
file, a separate key and cert, the Windows certificate store, or the macOS
keychain — without hand-rolling an ssl.SSLContext or writing the private key
to a temporary file.
from httpx_pki import PKIClient
with PKIClient("client.p12", password="secret") as client:
r = client.get("https://mtls.example.com/")
Backend
Since 0.8, httpx-pki depends on httpx2 and PKIClient subclasses
httpx2.Client. The original httpx remains fully supported as a fallback —
see Backends: httpx2 and httpx.
Where to start¶
Install, load a certificate, make a request.
Every source format, identity selection, server trust, rotation.
Every public class, function, exception, and warning.
What happens between your bundle and the TLS handshake.
