# GoCertifi: SSL Certificates for Golang
|
||
|
||
This Go package contains a CA bundle that you can reference in your Go code.
|
||
This is useful for systems that do not have CA bundles that Golang can find
|
||
itself, or where a uniform set of CAs is valuable.
|
||
|
||
This is the same CA bundle that ships with the
|
||
[Python Requests](https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests) library, and is a
|
||
Golang specific port of [certifi](https://github.com/kennethreitz/certifi). The
|
||
CA bundle is derived from Mozilla's canonical set.
|
||
|
||
## Usage
|
||
|
||
You can use the `gocertifi` package as follows:
|
||
|
||
```go
|
||
import "github.com/certifi/gocertifi"
|
||
|
||
cert_pool, err := gocertifi.CACerts()
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can use the returned `*x509.CertPool` as part of an HTTP transport, for example:
|
||
|
||
```go
|
||
import (
|
||
"net/http"
|
||
"crypto/tls"
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
// Setup an HTTP client with a custom transport
|
||
transport := &http.Transport{
|
||
TLSClientConfig: &tls.Config{RootCAs: cert_pool},
|
||
}
|
||
client := &http.Client{Transport: transport}
|
||
|
||
// Make an HTTP request using our custom transport
|
||
resp, err := client.Get("https://example.com")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Detailed Documentation
|
||
|
||
Import as follows:
|
||
|
||
```go
|
||
import "github.com/certifi/gocertifi"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Errors
|
||
|
||
```go
|
||
var ErrParseFailed = errors.New("gocertifi: error when parsing certificates")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Functions
|
||
|
||
```go
|
||
func CACerts() (*x509.CertPool, error)
|
||
```
|
||
CACerts builds an X.509 certificate pool containing the Mozilla CA Certificate
|
||
bundle. Returns nil on error along with an appropriate error code.
