A comprehensive Python framework for building secure medical and business applications with Brazilian market support.

Python 3.12+ License: MIT

Features

  • Security First: Field-level encryption, XSS protection, rate limiting, CSRF tokens
  • Medical Ready: Encrypted medical fields, LGPD compliance features
  • Brazilian Support: CPF/CNPJ validators, phone formatting, Portuguese error messages
  • Multi-Database: MongoDB and PostgreSQL support with consistent API
  • Smart Caching: Redis-based intelligent caching with fallback
  • Modern UI: Built on Flet (Flutter for Python)
  • Type Safe: Full type hints and Pydantic validation
  • Laboratory System: Import, store and analyze lab test results with encryption

Installation

# Basic installation
pip install essencia

# With security extras (bcrypt, argon2)
pip install essencia[security]

# With PostgreSQL support
pip install essencia[postgresql]

# All features
pip install essencia[all]

Quick Start

Environment Setup

Create a .env file:

# Required for encryption features
ESSENCIA_ENCRYPTION_KEY="your-base64-encoded-32-byte-key"

# Database connections (optional, defaults to localhost)
MONGODB_URL="mongodb://localhost:27017"
REDIS_URL="redis://localhost:6379"

Generate an encryption key:

python -c "import secrets; import base64; print(base64.b64encode(secrets.token_bytes(32)).decode())"

Basic Usage

from essencia import MongoModel, CPFValidator, EncryptedCPF
from essencia.fields import DefaultDateTime

# Define a model with encrypted fields
class Patient(MongoModel):
    COLLECTION_NAME = "patients"
    
    name: str
    cpf: EncryptedCPF  # Automatically encrypted/decrypted
    created_at: DefaultDateTime
    
# Validate Brazilian data
try:
    CPFValidator.validate("123.456.789-09")
except ValidationError as e:
    print(f"Invalid CPF: {e}")

# Use the model
patient = Patient(name="João Silva", cpf="123.456.789-09")
patient.save_self()  # CPF is encrypted in database

Security Features

from essencia.security import sanitize_input, RateLimiter
from essencia.cache import IntelligentCache

# Input sanitization
clean_html = sanitize_input("<script>alert('xss')</script>Hello")
# Result: "Hello"

# Rate limiting
rate_limiter = RateLimiter()
if rate_limiter.is_allowed("user-123", "login"):
    # Process login
    pass

# Intelligent caching
cache = IntelligentCache()
cache.set("user:123", user_data, ttl=3600)

Service Pattern

from essencia.services import EnhancedBaseService

class PatientService(EnhancedBaseService):
    model_class = Patient
    collection_name = "patients"
    
    async def find_by_cpf(self, cpf: str):
        # CPF is automatically encrypted for search
        return await self.find_one({"cpf": cpf})

Laboratory Data Management

from essencia.models import LabTest, LabTestAnalyzer
from essencia.utils import LabCSVImporter

# Import lab results from CSV
importer = LabCSVImporter(patient_key="patient_123", doctor_key="dr_smith")
success_count, errors = importer.import_csv("lab_results.csv")

# Analyze test trends
glucose_trend = LabTestAnalyzer.get_test_trend("patient_123", "Glicemia Jejum")
print(f"Latest: {glucose_trend['latest']} mg/dL, Trend: {glucose_trend['trend']}")

# Get abnormal results
abnormal = LabTestAnalyzer.get_abnormal_results("patient_123")
