Looking at the code, ca_certs seems to be optional so i am not sure why i still run into this.

Although the sample parameter is optional, defaulting to roots.pem in the current path, I believe you still will need to retrieve the root certificate from Google e.g. wget https://pki.goog/roots.pem.

Ok i missed that. Should be mentioned in the README

Fixed in #1225
