TLS parameters example ============================= This examples demonstrates a TLS session with RabbitMQ using mutual authentication. It was tested against RabbitMQ 3.6.10, using Python 3.6.1 and pre-release Pika `0.11.0` Note the use of `ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1`. The recent verions of RabbitMQ disable older versions of SSL due to security vulnerabilities. See https://www.rabbitmq.com/ssl.html for certificate creation and rabbitmq SSL configuration instructions. tls_example.py:: import ssl import pika import logging logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO) cp = pika.ConnectionParameters( ssl=True, ssl_options=dict( ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1, ca_certs="/Users/me/tls-gen/basic/testca/cacert.pem", keyfile="/Users/me/tls-gen/basic/client/key.pem", certfile="/Users/me/tls-gen/basic/client/cert.pem", cert_reqs=ssl.CERT_REQUIRED)) conn = pika.BlockingConnection(cp) ch = conn.channel() print(ch.queue_declare("sslq")) ch.publish("", "sslq", "abc") print(ch.basic_get("sslq")) rabbitmq.config:: %% Both the client and rabbitmq server were running on the same machine, a MacBookPro laptop. %% %% rabbitmq.config was created in its default location for OS X: /usr/local/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config. %% %% The contents of the example rabbitmq.config are for demonstration purposes only.
