The code that fetches the tailwindcss binaries from github looks like this:

    # Ensures SSL certificate verification doesn't fail
    ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context
    urllib.request.urlretrieve(url, str(dest_filename))

This is called by the main() function.

This means anyone using pytailwindcss after installation will try and download binaries from github.com, but without making sure the binary files come from the correct host, which can lead to all kinds of attack (and defeats the purpose of using SSL in the first place).

If they are legitimate cases for the SSL verification to be skipped, I think the code above can be kept, but only if something like an --insecure option is passed. By the way, this is what both curl and wget do.

Feel free to tell me if I've missed something or if you need more information. I can also work on a patch if you like.

When I call tailwindcss in the command prompt I get this error:

Hi! After installing the package I run the command to generate the output css file but I get the following error:

(venv) [guillermo@arch guarde]$ tailwindcss -i input.css -o style.css --minify

warn - The `content` key is missing or empty. Please populate the content key as Tailwind generates utilities on-demand based on the files that use them. For more information see the documentation: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/content-configuration

Done in 233ms.

I'm guessing I must edit the content key in the tailwind.config.js file but I can't seem to find it inside my venv. Sorry if it's a silly issue... Cheers

after running: tailwindcss -i style.css -o output.css --watch

i get an warning about: warn - The content option in your Tailwind CSS configuration is missing or empty. warn - Configure your content sources or your generated CSS will be missing styles. warn - https://tailwindcss.com/docs/content-configuration

i though thar my content paths are wrong. and after trying every possible combination still get that warning and the css isnt working.

i found that that was an issue on: https://tagmerge.com/issue/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss/7210

but i don't know is it relevant.

Can you maybe chek it out? thanks.

I configured Flask-Assets to create the output css using Bundle. However in production the binary tailwindcss is not found. This is because after pip install pytailwindcss the binary is not yet created. Locally I can run tailwindcss to create the binary, however this is not possible when deploying to production. I can only list pytailwindcss in requirements.txt but this doesn't create the required binary. Can you make it so that pip install pytailwindcss also creates the binary, so that step 2 of the Get Started is obsolete?
