# Example Python program that retrieves the statistics of

# loaded X.509 certificates into the SSLContext

import ssl

import socket

# Create an SSLContext

context = ssl.SSLContext();

# Get the certificate statistics as a Python dictionary

certStats = context.cert_store_stats();

print("Loaded certificates:");

print(certStats);

# Load the CA certificates

context.load_verify_locations("./DemoCA.pem");

# Load the X.509 certificate of the client

context.load_cert_chain(certfile="./DemoClt.crt", keyfile="./DemoClt.key");

# Get the updated certificate statistics as a Python dictionary

certStats = context.cert_store_stats();

print("Loaded certificates(updated):");

print(certStats);

Loaded certificates:

{'x509': 0, 'crl': 0, 'x509_ca': 0}

Loaded certificates(updated):

{'x509': 1, 'crl': 0, 'x509_ca': 1}
