Python implementation of https://github.com/defuse/password-hashing (v1.0)

Supports both Python >=v2.7.9 and >=3.4.

Please note, this code has not been scrutinized or peer-reviewed at all - though I’m interested, if anyone wants to look it over.

It is a naive attempt to re-implement PasswordHash.php.

# Installation

pip install password-hashing-python

# Usage

## Creating a hash-string `Python Console >>> import password_hashing >>> _hash = password_hashing.create_hash('your_password') >>> print _hash b'sha1:64000:18:B6oWbvtHvu8qCgoE75wxmvpidRnGzGFt:R1gkPOuVjqIoTulWP1TABS0H' >>> # snip: save `_hash` to a DB `

## Validating the password `Python Console >>> # snip: retrieve `_hash` from DB >>> import password_hashing >>> password_hashing.validate_password('your_password', _hash) True >>> password_hashing.validate_password('wrong_password', _hash) False `
