- Description: This package provides a high level object oriented wrapper around libgnutls,
- as well as low level bindings to the GNUTLS types and functions via ctypes.
- The high level wrapper hides the details of accessing the GNUTLS library via
- ctypes behind a set of classes that encapsulate GNUTLS sessions, certificates
- and credentials and expose them to python applications using a simple API.
-
- The package also includes a Twisted interface that has seamless intergration
- with Twisted, providing connectTLS and listenTLS methods on the Twisted
- reactor once imported (the methods are automatically attached to the reactor
- by simply importing the GNUTLS Twisted interface module).
-
- The high level wrapper is written using the GNUTLS library bindings that are
- made available via ctypes. This makes the wrapper very powerful and flexible
- as it has direct access to all the GNUTLS internals and is also very easy to
- extend without any need to write C code or recompile anything.
