pseudomatic 0.1.2

A tool for generating deterministic pseudonyms based on a seed string and selected language

Pseudomatic

Pseudomatic is a Python-based tool for generating pseudonyms based on a seed string and a selected language. It is useful for anonymizing data or creating unique, repeatable pseudonyms.

Features

• Supports multiple languages:
  • English (en)
  • Ukrainian (ua)
• Generates pseudonyms in the format: Adjective Noun (e.g., "Brave Fox" or "Хоробрий Лис").
• Deterministic output: the same seed and language will always produce the same pseudonym.

Installation

From PyPI

pip install pseudomatic

From Source

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd pseudomatic
   

2. Install in development mode:

   pip install -e .
   

Usage

As a Python Package

from pseudomatic import pseudonym

# Generate a pseudonym in English
pseudonym_en = pseudonym("JohnDoe", language="en")
print(pseudonym_en)  # Example: "Brave Fox"

# Generate a pseudonym in Ukrainian
pseudonym_ua = pseudonym("JohnDoe", language="ua")
print(pseudonym_ua)  # Example: "Хоробрий Лис"

# Use different themes
business_pseudonym = pseudonym("JohnDoe", language="en", theme="business")
market_pseudonym = pseudonym("JohnDoe", language="ua", theme="market")

From Command Line

Run the script directly:

python -m pseudomatic

This will generate example pseudonyms in English and Ukrainian using the 'market' theme.

Development and Deployment

Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment

This project uses GitHub Actions for CI/CD:

• When a new release is created on GitHub, the package is automatically built and published to PyPI.
• The workflow is defined in .github/workflows/publish.yml.

Creating a New Release

To create a new release:

1. Update the version number in pyproject.toml.
2. Create a new release on GitHub with a tag matching the version (e.g., v0.1.0).
3. The GitHub Actions workflow will automatically build and publish the package to PyPI.

PyPI Authentication

The GitHub Actions workflow requires a PyPI API token stored as a GitHub secret named PYPI_API_TOKEN. To set this up:

1. Create an API token on PyPI (https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/).
2. Add the token as a secret in your GitHub repository settings.
