Introduction

Python Client Example, using python-tuf.

This Python Client Example implements the following actions:

  • Client Infrastructure Initialization
  • Download target files from TUF Repository

Repository

This example demonstrates how to use the python-tuf to build a client application.

The repository will use static files. The static files are available in the python-tuf source code repository in tests/repository_data/repository.

Run the repository using the Python3 built-in HTTP module, and keep this session running.

   $ python3 -m http.server -d tests/repository_data/repository
   Serving HTTP on :: port 8000 (http://[::]:8000/) ...
