It lets you start a responder, register certificates it should approve, and revoke certificates as needed. The package depends on PyOpenSSL for certificate parsing and requires OpenSSL itself to be installed on your machine.\n\nThe project is in alpha stage and has been abandoned since 2021-12-30, with no updates or maintenance activity since then. It targets Python 2.7 according to its classifiers. No documentation is available, and the repository has zero stars, suggesting minimal adoption or community validation.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last update 2021-12-30), targets only Python 2.7, has high install friction (requires system OpenSSL), and shows no adoption (zero repository stars). The lack of documentation and maintenance history makes it unsuitable for production or reliable development use. Consider using established OCSP libraries or managing OpenSSL directly instead."},"id":"openssl-ocsp-responder","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openssl-ocsp-responder","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openssl-ocsp-responder.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/openssl-ocsp-responder/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-12-30","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"openssl-ocsp-responder","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Simple wrapper for OpenSSL OCSP server"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":112743,"position":12359,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.1"}
