Installation and Requirements
*****************************


Installation
============

"$ pip install service-identity"


Requirements
============

Python 2.7, 3.5 and later, as well as PyPy are supported.

Additionally, the following PyPI packages are required:

* attrs

* pyOpenSSL ">= 0.14" ("0.12" and "0.13" may work but are not part of
  CI anymore)

* pyasn1

* pyasn1-modules

* ipaddress on Python 2.7

Optionally, idna ">= 0.6" can be used for internationalized domain
names (IDN), i.e. non-ASCII domains. Unfortunately it’s required
because Python’s IDN support in the standard library is outdated even
in the latest releases.

If you need Python 3.2 support, you will have to use the latest 0.2.x
release. If you need Python 2.6 or 3.3 support, you will have to use
the latest 14.0.x release. They will receive bug fix releases if
necessary but other than that no further development is planned.
