pipenv: SSL certificates not used by pipenv lock

I am trying to use pipenv at work and am running into SSL certificate errors despite my company’s certificates working in other applications, including pip and in requests:

Python 3.6.5 (default, Apr 14 2018, 13:17:30) 
[GCC 7.3.1 20180406] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import requests
>>> requests.get('https://pypi.org')
<Response [200]>
>>>

pipenv is able to download packages just fine, but locking runs into SSL problems. I was directed to open a new issue after checking my TLS version (it is 1.2) here: https://github.com/pypa/pipenv/issues/591.

Please run $ python -m pipenv.help, and paste the results here.

Setting the environment variable worked. I wonder why requests worked on its own without that set?

Hey @edwardreed81, sorry I missed this issue when it started. The problem you’re hitting is two separate versions of Requests. The one bundled with pipenv is Requests 2.11.1 which still had certificates packaged with Requests vs the Requests you have installed is (likely) Requests 2.18.4 which will detect certs on your machine. This is why you’re seeing variance between the two imports.

This was a fundamental change we made in Requests and is expected behaviour. We need to get our vendored copy of Requests updated in pipenv or simply removed if possible. We’ll look into getting the issue resolved tomorrow hopefully.

We bundle requests with our own PEM and so does pip. Try installing requests[security] as this may add relevant libraries

(It still might not, in which case set REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE=/path/to/company/certificates.pem and then try)
