The requests library in Python will check your certs.

Thanks. Did I miss the TOC or was that a hidden anchor?

Most sphinx documentation has a permalink if you hover over the title text. It will show up in this instance to the right.

Ahh. I couldn't figure that out to be honest, so I just viewed the source.

Why the hell is that advanced?

Nice to know, though. Thanks!

Changing which certificates are used and whether to check is advanced. The right thing is the default.
