Python library for connecting to CertStream

CertStream-Python

See SSL certs as they're issued live.

Certstream-python is a library for interacting with the certstream network to monitor an aggregated feed from a collection of Certificate Transparency Lists.

It leverages the excellent 2/3 compatible websocket-client library and supports reconnecting automatically.

Installing

pip install certstream

Usage

Usage is about as simple as it gets, simply import the certstream module and register a callback with certstream.listen_for_events. Once you register a callback it will be called with 2 arguments - message, and context.

import logging
import sys
import datetime
import certstream

def print_callback(message, context):
    logging.debug("Message -> {}".format(message))

    if message['message_type'] == "heartbeat":
        return

    if message['message_type'] == "certificate_update":
        all_domains = message['data']['leaf_cert']['all_domains']

        if len(all_domains) == 0:
            domain = "NULL"
        else:
            domain = all_domains[0]

        sys.stdout.write(u"[{}] {} (SAN: {})\n".format(datetime.datetime.now().strftime('%m/%d/%y %H:%M:%S'), domain, ", ".join(message['data']['leaf_cert']['all_domains'][1:])))
        sys.stdout.flush()

logging.basicConfig(format='[%(levelname)s:%(name)s] %(asctime)s - %(message)s', level=logging.INFO)

certstream.listen_for_events(print_callback, url='wss://certstream.calidog.io/')

You can also register an on_open and on_error handler as well, which do exactly what you'd expect:

import certstream

def print_callback(message, context):
    print("Received messaged -> {}".format(message))

def on_open():
    print("Connection successfully established!")

def on_error(instance, exception):
    # Instance is the CertStreamClient instance that barfed
    print("Exception in CertStreamClient! -> {}".format(exception)) 

certstream.listen_for_events(print_callback, on_open=on_open, on_error=on_error, url='wss://certstream.calidog.io/')

We also support connection via http proxy:

import certstream

def print_callback(message, context):
    print("Received messaged -> {}".format(message))

certstream.listen_for_events(print_callback, url='wss://certstream.calidog.io/', http_proxy_host="proxy_host", http_proxy_port=8080, http_proxy_auth=("user", "password"))

Need more connection options? Take a look at **kwargs in certstream.listen_for_events. We pass it to run_forever method of websocket-client.

e.g. to skip SSL/TLS verification

import certstream
import ssl

certstream.listen_for_events(print_callback, url='wss://certstream.calidog.io/', sslopt={"cert_reqs":ssl.CERT_NONE})

Example data structure
