heare-ids 0.1.3

Stripe-like tokens in pure-python with no dependencies.

Heare IDs

A Python module for creating, validating, parsing, and manipulating tokens that are base-62 encoded.

Features

• Generate unique tokens with a prefix, generation character, timestamp, and entropy part
• Validate the structure and character set of tokens
• Parse tokens into their components (prefix, generation, timestamp, entropy)
• Swap the prefix of a token with a new prefix

Installation

pip install heare-ids

Usage

Generating Tokens

from heare import ids

# Generate a new token with default settings
token = ids.new('my_prefix')

# Generate a token with custom generation, timestamp, and entropy
token = ids.new('my_prefix', generation='A', timestamp=1234567890, entropy=15)

Validating Tokens

is_valid = ids.is_valid(token)

Parsing Tokens

parsed = ids.parse(token)
prefix = parsed.prefix
generation = parsed.generation
timestamp = parsed.timestamp
entropy = parsed.entropy

Swapping Prefixes

new_token = ids.swap_prefix(token, 'new_prefix')
