Change in server certificate store

[hetangmodi-crest]

As a part of cloudconnectlib==3.1.0, the server certificate store has been changed from system certificates to how the requests library fetches the certificates. This change has been implemented as a part of #82. This change provides better and wider support for different OS platforms and flavors.

Impact

Who is impacted?

• Add-ons that support the usage of self-signed server certificates.

Guide to minimize the impact

• The add-on can provide that custom path under the verify parameter of CCEHTTPRequestTask class (it should be an absolute path). This certificate path will be used while making the API calls to the server and will be applicable to all the API calls made via this library.
• The add-on can either find the system trust store or ask one from the user. By default, the library uses the requests library mechanism to verify the server's TLS certificate while making an SSL connection.
