Installation and Requirements

Installation

$ pip install service_identity

Requirements

Python 2.7, 3.4 and later, as well as PyPy are supported.

Additionally, the following PyPI modules are required:

• attrs
• pyOpenSSL >= 0.14 (0.12 and 0.13 may work but are not part of CI anymore)
• pyasn1
• pyasn1-modules

Optionally, idna >= 0.6 can be used for internationalized domain names (IDN), i.e. non-ASCII domains. Unfortunately it’s required because Python’s IDN support in the standard library is outdated even in the latest releases.

If you need Python 3.2 support, you will have to use the latest 0.2.x release. If you need Python 2.6 or 3.3 support, you will have to use the latest 14.0.x release. They will receive bug fix releases if necessary but other than that no further development is planned.
