ACME is Automatic Certificate Management Environment, a protocol that allows clients and certificate authorities to automate verification and certificate issuance. The ACME protocol is used by the free Let's Encrypt Certificate Authority.
txacme is an implementation of the protocol for Twisted, the
event-driven networking engine for Python.
txacme is still under heavy development, and currently only an
implementation of the client side of the protocol is planned; if you are
interested in implementing or have need of the server side, please get in
touch!
txacme’s documentation lives at Read the Docs, the code on GitHub.
It’s lightly tested on Python 3.6+, and PyPy3.
