Create a new XMLRPCTransport.
An instance of this class can be passed to
:py:class:`xmlrpclib.ServerProxy`
to use TLS with XML-RPC calls::
from tlslite import XMLRPCTransport
from xmlrpclib import ServerProxy
transport = XMLRPCTransport(user="alice", password="abra123")
server = ServerProxy("https://localhost", transport)
For client authentication, use one of these argument
combinations:
- username, password (SRP)
- certChain, privateKey (certificate)
For server authentication, you can either rely on the
implicit mutual authentication performed by SRP or
you can do certificate-based server
authentication with one of these argument combinations:
- x509Fingerprint
Certificate-based server authentication is compatible with
SRP or certificate-based client authentication.
The constructor does not perform the TLS handshake itself, but
simply stores these arguments for later. The handshake is
performed only when this class needs to connect with the
server. Thus you should be prepared to handle TLS-specific
exceptions when calling methods of :py:class:`xmlrpclib.ServerProxy`.
See the
client handshake functions in
:py:class:`~tlslite.tlsconnection.TLSConnection` for details on which
exceptions might be raised.
:type username: str
:param username: SRP username. Requires the
'password' argument.
:type password: str
:param password: SRP password for mutual authentication.
Requires the 'username' argument.
:type certChain: ~tlslite.x509certchain.X509CertChain
:param certChain: Certificate chain for client authentication.
Requires the 'privateKey' argument. Excludes the SRP arguments.
:type privateKey: ~tlslite.utils.rsakey.RSAKey
:param privateKey: Private key for client authentication.
Requires the 'certChain' argument. Excludes the SRP arguments.
:type checker: ~tlslite.checker.Checker
:param checker: Callable object called after handshaking to
evaluate the connection and raise an Exception if necessary.
:type settings: ~tlslite.handshakesettings.HandshakeSettings
:param settings: Various settings which can be used to control
the ciphersuites, certificate types, and SSL/TLS versions
offered by the client.
:type ignoreAbruptClose: bool
:param ignoreAbruptClose: ignore the TLSAbruptCloseError on
unexpected hangup.
