Hello All, I have been trying to make an https client with python, but it seems that, to do this, one needs to have the socket module compiled with ssl. This is not the default. So I have a couple of questions.
1. Where do I specify to compile socket with ssl? I found no obvious option in configure or setup.py or several other files I checked. 2. Is there a way to do this without re-compiling all of python? Also, I have done numerous combinations of searches with ssl, https, & python as terms, but I haven't found a page outlining the steps to make a certificate and key that python understands. Has anyone been successful at this? Did you use openssl? I want to make sure I am doing this part correctly. Thanks in advance for any help.
