Edits your requirements.txt by hashing them in
Project description
Helps you write your requirements.txt with hashes so you can install with pip install --require-hashes -r ...
If you want to add a package or edit the version of one you’re currently using you have to do the following steps:
Go to pypi for that package
Download the .tgz file
Possibly download the .whl file
Run pip hash downloadedpackage-1.2.3.tgz
Run pip hash downloadedpackage-1.2.3.whl
Edit requirements.txt
This script does all those things. Hackishly wonderfully so.
A Word of Warning!
The whole point of hashing is that you vet the packages that you use on your laptop and that they haven’t been tampered with. Then you can confidently install them on a server.
This tool downloads from PyPI (over HTTPS) and runs pip hash on the downloaded files.
You should check that the packages that are downloaded are sane and not tampered with. The way you do that is to run hashin as normal but with the --verbose flag. When you do that it will print where it downloaded the relevant files and those files are not deleted. For example:
$ hashin --verbose bgg /tmp/reqs.txt https://pypi.python.org/pypi/bgg/json * Latest version for 0.22.1 * Found URL https://pypi.python.org/packages/2.7/b/bgg/bgg-0.22.1-py2-none-any.whl * Re-using /var/folders/1x/2hf5hbs902q54g3bgby5bzt40000gn/T/bgg-0.22.1-py2-none-any.whl * Hash e5172c3fda0e8a42d1797fd1ff75245c3953d7c8574089a41a219204dbaad83d * Found URL https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/b/bgg/bgg-0.22.1.tar.gz * Re-using /var/folders/1x/2hf5hbs902q54g3bgby5bzt40000gn/T/bgg-0.22.1.tar.gz * Hash aaa53aea1cecb8a6e1288d6bfe52a51408a264a97d5c865c38b34ae16c9bff88 * Editing /tmp/reqs.txt
You might not have time to go through the lines one by one but you should be aware that the vetting process is your responsibility.
Installation
This is something you only do or ever need in a development environment. Ie. your laptop:
pip install hashin
How to use it
Suppose you want to install futures. You can either do this:
hashin futures
Which will download the latest version tarball (and wheel) and calculate their pip hash and edit your requirements.txt file.
Or you can be specific about exactly which version you want:
hashin "futures==2.1.3"
You can also specify more than one package at a time:
hashin "futures==2.1.3" requests
Suppose you don’t have a requirements.txt right there in the same directory you can specify --requirements-file:
hashin futures --requirements-file=stuff/requirements/prod.txt
By default sha256 hashes are used, but this can be overridden using the --algorithm argument:
hashin futures --algorithm=sha512
If there’s no output, it worked. Check how it edited your requirements file.
Filtering releases by Python version
Some requirements have many releases built for different versions of Python and different architectures. These hashes aren’t useful in some cases, if those wheels don’t work with your project. hashin can filter on the Python version to skip these extraneous hashes.
For example, the cffi package offers wheels built for many versions of CPython from 2.6 to 3.5. To select only one of them, you can use the --python-version option:
hashin "cffi==1.5.2" --python-version 3.5
If you need to support multiple versions, you can pass this option multiple times:
hashin "cffi==1.5.2" --python-version 2.7 --python-version 3.5
hashin will expand these Python versions to a full list of identifers that could be found on PyPI. For example, 3.5 will expand to match any of 3.5, py3, py3.5, py2.py3, or cp3.5. You can also specify these exact identifiers directly, if you need something specific.
The source release is always automatically included. pip will use this as a fallback in the case a suitable wheel cannot be found.
Dry run mode
There are some use cases, when you maybe don’t want to edit your requirements.txt right away. You can use the --dry-run argument to show the diff, so you can preview the changes to your requirements.txt file.
Example:
hashin --dry-run requests==2.19.1
Would result in a printout on the command line:
--- Old +++ New @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +requests==2.19.1 \ + --hash=sha256:63b52e3c866428a224f97cab011de738c36aec0185aa91cfacd418b5d58911d1 \ + --hash=sha256:ec22d826a36ed72a7358ff3fe56cbd4ba69dd7a6718ffd450ff0e9df7a47ce6a
PEP-0496 Environment Markers
Requirements can use PEP-0496 style specifiers (e.g. like cffi==1.5.2; python_version >= '3.4') and these will be passed through when re-writing the requirements.txt file. hashin doesn’t parse the specifiers themselves and will take anything after the semicolon. If you are using python_version you will still need to pass appropriate options if you don’t want every available hash.
An example of this might be:
hashin "pywin32-ctypes ; sys_platform == 'win32'"
which will result it something like this in the requirements.txt file:
pywin32-ctypes==0.1.2; sys_platform == 'win32' \ --hash=sha256:4820b830f42e6889d34142bcd07b3896018c3620d8c31f5e13b72caf1f4d1d0f
And if you want to limit it to certain Python versions, here’s an example:
hashin "cffi==1.5.2; python_version >= '3.4'" -p 3.4 -p 3.5
Using as a Python library
Everything you can do with hashin on the command line you can do in running Python too. For example:
import hashin from pprint import pprint pprint(hashin.get_package_hashes('Django'))
This will print out:
{'hashes': [{'hash': 'fbc7ffaa45a4a67cb45f77dbd94e8eceecebe1d0959fe9c665dfbf28b41899e6', 'url': 'https://pypi.python.org/packages/41/c1/68dd27946b03a3d756b0ff665baad25aee1f59918891d86ab76764209208/Django-1.11b1-py2.py3-none-any.whl'}], 'package': 'Django', 'version': '1.11b1'}
Or with specific version, algorithm and certain Python versions:
import hashin from pprint import pprint pprint(hashin.get_package_hashes( 'Django', version='1.10', algorithm='sha512', python_versions=('3.5',) ))
Running tests
Simply run:
python setup.py test
Running tests with test coverage
To run the tests with test coverage, with pytest run something like this:
$ pip install pytest-cover $ pytest --cov hashin --cov-report html tests $ open htmlcov/index.html
Debugging
To avoid having to install hashin just to test it or debug a feature you can simply just run it like this:
touch /tmp/whatever.txt python hashin.py --verbose Django /tmp/whatever.txt
History
This program is a “fork” of https://pypi.python.org/pypi/peepin peepin was a companion to the program peep https://pypi.python.org/pypi/peep/ but the functionality of peep has been put directly into pip as of version 8.
Future
If this script proves itself to work and be useful, I hope we can put it directly into pip.
Version History
0.13.4
Ability to pass --dry-run which prints a diff of what it would do to your requirements file. See https://github.com/peterbe/hashin/pull/78
Better error message when no versions, but some pre-releases found. See https://github.com/peterbe/hashin/issues/76
Don’t show URLs when using --verbose if files don’t need to be downloaded. See https://github.com/peterbe/hashin/issues/73
- 0.13.3
Makes it possible to install nltk on Windows. Thanks @chrispbailey!
- 0.13.2
Match Python versions as py{major}{minor} additionally. Solves problem with installing packages with files like Paste-2.0.3-py34-none-any.whl. Thanks @danfoster!
- 0.13.1
Ability to pass --include-prereleases if you’re trying to add a package that only has pre-releases.
- 0.13.0
Two new dependencies for hashin: pip-api and packaging. This means we no longer need to import pip and rely on private APIs. Thanks @di! This also means you can no longer install hashin on Python 2.6 and Python <=3.3.
- 0.12.0
Switch from pypi.python.org/pypi/<package>/json to pypi.org/pypi/<package>/json which also means the sha256 hash is part of the JSON payload immediately instead of having to download and run pip to get the hash.
Testing no runs Python 2.6 and Python 3.3.
All hashes, per package, are sorted (by the hash) to make it more predictable.
- 0.11.5
You can now pass PEP-0496 Environment Markers together with the package name, and they get passed into the requirements.txt file. Thanks @meejah
- 0.11.4
PackageErrors happening in CLI suppressed just the error message out on stderr. No full traceback any more.
- 0.11.3
Better error if you typo the package name since it’ll 404 on PyPI.
- 0.11.2
Run continuous integration tests with Python 3.6 too.
- 0.11.1
Ability to run hashin --version to see what version of hashin is installed. See https://github.com/peterbe/hashin/issues/41
- 0.11.0
Cope with leading zeros in version numbers when figuring out what the latest version is. See https://github.com/peterbe/hashin/issues/39
- 0.10.0
Latest version is now figured out by looking at all version numbers in the list of releases from the JSON payload. The pre releases are skipped.
- 0.9.0
Fixed a bug where it would fail to install a package whose name is partially part of an existing (installed) package. E.g. installing redis==x.y.z when django-redis==a.b.c was already in the requirements file.

Important bug fix. As an example, if you had pytest-selenium==... already in your requirements.txt file and add selenium==x.y.z it would touch the line with pytest-selenium too.
- 0.4.1
Support for PyPI links that have a hash in the file URL.
- 0.4.1
Fix PackageError if no Python version is defined.
