Challenges¶

ACME Identifier Validation Challenges.

class acme.challenges.Challenge(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: josepy.json_util.TypedJSONObjectWithFields

ACME challenge.

classmethod from_json(jobj)[source]¶

Deserialize ACME object from valid JSON object.

Raises:	josepy.errors.UnrecognizedTypeError – if type of the ACME object has not been registered.

class acme.challenges.ChallengeResponse(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: josepy.json_util.TypedJSONObjectWithFields

ACME challenge response.

class acme.challenges.UnrecognizedChallenge(jobj)[source]¶

Bases: acme.challenges.Challenge

Unrecognized challenge.

ACME specification defines a generic framework for challenges and defines some standard challenges that are implemented in this module. However, other implementations (including peers) might define additional challenge types, which should be ignored if unrecognized.

Variables:	jobj – Original JSON decoded object.

to_partial_json()[source]¶

Get JSON serializable object.

Returns:	Serializable JSON object representing ACME typed object. `validate()` will almost certainly not work, due to reasons explained in `josepy.interfaces.IJSONSerializable`.
Return type:	dict

classmethod from_json(jobj)[source]¶

Deserialize ACME object from valid JSON object.

Raises:	josepy.errors.UnrecognizedTypeError – if type of the ACME object has not been registered.

class acme.challenges.KeyAuthorizationChallengeResponse(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: acme.challenges.ChallengeResponse

Response to Challenges based on Key Authorization.

Parameters:	key_authorization (unicode) –

verify(chall, account_public_key)[source]¶

Verify the key authorization.

Parameters:	chall (KeyAuthorization) – Challenge that corresponds to this response. account_public_key (JWK) –
Returns:	`True` iff verification of the key authorization was successful.
Return type:	bool

to_partial_json()[source]¶

Get JSON serializable object.

Returns:	Serializable JSON object representing ACME typed object. `validate()` will almost certainly not work, due to reasons explained in `josepy.interfaces.IJSONSerializable`.
Return type:	dict

class acme.challenges.KeyAuthorizationChallenge(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: acme.challenges._TokenChallenge

Challenge based on Key Authorization.

Parameters:	response_cls – Subclass of `KeyAuthorizationChallengeResponse` that will be used to generate `response`. typ (str) – type of the challenge

key_authorization(account_key)[source]¶

Generate Key Authorization.

Parameters:	account_key (JWK) –
Rtype unicode:

response(account_key)[source]¶

Generate response to the challenge.

Parameters:	account_key (JWK) –
Returns:	Response (initialized `response_cls`) to the challenge.
Return type:	KeyAuthorizationChallengeResponse

validation(account_key, **kwargs)[source]¶

Generate validation for the challenge.

Subclasses must implement this method, but they are likely to return completely different data structures, depending on what’s necessary to complete the challenge. Interpretation of that return value must be known to the caller.

Parameters:	account_key (JWK) –
Returns:	Challenge-specific validation.

response_and_validation(account_key, *args, **kwargs)[source]¶

Generate response and validation.

Convenience function that return results of response and validation.

Parameters:	account_key (JWK) –
Return type:	tuple

class acme.challenges.DNS01Response(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: acme.challenges.KeyAuthorizationChallengeResponse

ACME dns-01 challenge response.

simple_verify(chall, domain, account_public_key)[source]¶

Simple verify.

This method no longer checks DNS records and is a simple wrapper around KeyAuthorizationChallengeResponse.verify.

Parameters:	chall (challenges.DNS01) – Corresponding challenge. domain (unicode) – Domain name being verified. account_public_key (JWK) – Public key for the key pair being authorized.
Returns:	`True` iff verification of the key authorization was successful.
Return type:	bool

class acme.challenges.DNS01(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: acme.challenges.KeyAuthorizationChallenge

ACME dns-01 challenge.

response_cls¶: alias of DNS01Response

LABEL = '_acme-challenge'¶: Label clients prepend to the domain name being validated.

validation(account_key, **unused_kwargs)[source]¶

Generate validation.

Parameters:	account_key (JWK) –
Return type:	unicode

validation_domain_name(name)[source]¶

Domain name for TXT validation record.

Parameters:	name (unicode) – Domain name being validated.

class acme.challenges.HTTP01Response(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: acme.challenges.KeyAuthorizationChallengeResponse

ACME http-01 challenge response.

PORT = 80¶

Verification port as defined by the protocol.

You can override it (e.g. for testing) by passing port to simple_verify.

WHITESPACE_CUTSET = '\n\r\t '¶: Whitespace characters which should be ignored at the end of the body.

simple_verify(chall, domain, account_public_key, port=None)[source]¶

Simple verify.

Parameters:	chall (challenges.SimpleHTTP) – Corresponding challenge. domain (unicode) – Domain name being verified. account_public_key (JWK) – Public key for the key pair being authorized. port (int) – Port used in the validation.
Returns:	`True` iff validation with the files currently served by the HTTP server is successful.
Return type:	bool

class acme.challenges.HTTP01(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: acme.challenges.KeyAuthorizationChallenge

ACME http-01 challenge.

response_cls¶: alias of HTTP01Response

URI_ROOT_PATH = '.well-known/acme-challenge'¶: URI root path for the server provisioned resource.

path¶

Path (starting with ‘/’) for provisioned resource.

Return type:	string

uri(domain)[source]¶

Create an URI to the provisioned resource.

Forms an URI to the HTTPS server provisioned resource (containing token).
