pip install fails mac os mojave with SSL error about jq.py HOT 4 CLOSED

This certificate failure could prevent the jq Python bindings from being used in corporate environments, so it would be great if someone could take a look into fixing this.

from jq.py.

What URL is the command failing on? The only URLs referenced directly in setup.py are GitHub URLs, which I'd expect to have valid certificates.

Are you sure you have certificates installed correctly? The release notes for Python 3.6 mention:

macOS users: If you are using the Python 3.6 from the python.org binary installer linked on this page, please carefully read the Important Information displayed during installation; this information is also available after installation by clicking on /Applications/Python 3.6/ReadMe.rtf. There is important information there about changes in the 3.6.0 installer-supplied Python, particularly with regard to SSL certificate validation.

If you haven't already, you might need to install the certificates e.g. for Python 3.6:

/Applications/Python\ 3.6/Install\ Certificates.command

If that doesn't work, I'm unlikely to have time to implement a fix in the bindings themselves in the near future.

We got around the SSL cert issue by downloading the files locally, but for some reason the setup.py is failing because it can't find jq.c. See make command below. Ran python setup.py install

I've added support for wheels on Linux and Mac OS X in the latest version. Hopefully they work for you, but shout if not!
