class TLSInitiatingInitializer(BaseFeatureInitiatingInitializer): (source)
Constructor: TLSInitiatingInitializer(xs, required, configurationForTLS)
TLS stream initializer for the initiating entity.
It is strongly required to include this initializer in the list of initializers for an XMPP stream. By default it will try to negotiate TLS. An XMPP server may indicate that TLS is required. If TLS is not desired, set the wanted attribute to False instead of removing it from the list of initializers, so a proper exception TLSRequired
can be raised.

configurationIOpenSSLClientConnectionCreator or None | An object which creates appropriately configured TLS connections. This is passed to startTLS on the transport and is preferably created using twisted.internet.ssl.optionsForClientTLS . If None, the default is to verify the server certificate against the trust roots as provided by the platform. See twisted.internet._sslverify.platformTrust . |
Start TLS negotiation.
This checks if the receiving entity requires TLS, the SSL library is available and uses the required and wanted instance variables to determine what to do in the various different cases.
For example, if the SSL library is not available, and wanted and required by the user, it raises an exception. However if it is not required by both parties, initialization silently succeeds, moving on to the next step.
