armour
password securing, management and generation tools
userland tools
see pwdtools
pip install pwdtools
these tools use the armour library for user interaction, armour is just a library,
pwdtools, on the other hand, provides cli interface with this library such as pwdgen for
password generation and so on, source
proof
i've used armour in multiple projects already and i can say that armour is a great library for generating secure human-readable secrets and stuff like that with high security and entropy, and also keeping it shorter than just 10000 chars long
it is provably better than cryptographically secure bytes + base85 encoding, b85 has more characters and cryptographically secure bytes should be very random and unpredictable, i've even made a script to demonstrate that :
armour with 1498 win( s ) or 73.14453125 percent of the runs won
b85_shuf with 272 win( s ) or 13.28125 percent of the runs won
b85_norm with 272 win( s ) or 13.28125 percent of the runs won
pwgen with 6 win( s ) or 0.29296875 percent of the runs won
winner is armour with score 1498 or 73.14453125 percent of the runs won
script is located at tests/test_proof.py, it tests password strengths for same length passwords ( by default 2048 runs and 2048 character length passwords )
magic file
magic file is used by file cmd to get metadata about a file, if u want that, use scripts/gen_magic.py script
