Library for generating signature keys and signing messages using nilVM and nilDB.

PyPI version and link. Read the Docs documentation status. GitHub Actions status. Coveralls test coverage summary.

Description and Purpose

This library provides client-side functions that interact with nilVM and nilDB clusters to perform signature key generation and message signing.

Installation and Usage

The library can be imported in the usual ways:

import nilsig
from nilsig import *

Example

An example workflow that demonstrates use of the library is presented below:

import nilsig

Development

All installation and development dependencies are fully specified in pyproject.toml. The project.optional-dependencies object is used to specify optional requirements for various development tasks. This makes it possible to specify additional options (such as docs, lint, and so on) when performing installation using pip:

python -m pip install ".[docs,lint]"

Documentation

The documentation can be generated automatically from the source files using Sphinx:

python -m pip install ".[docs]"
cd docs
sphinx-apidoc -f -E --templatedir=_templates -o _source .. && make html

Testing and Conventions

All unit tests are executed and their coverage is measured when using pytest (see the pyproject.toml file for configuration details):

python -m pip install ".[test]"
python -m pytest

The subset of the unit tests included in the module itself and can be executed using doctest:

python src/nilsig/nilsig.py -v

Style conventions are enforced using Pylint:

python -m pip install ".[lint]"
python -m pylint src/nilsig

In order to contribute to the source code, open an issue or submit a pull request on the GitHub page for this library.
