Python Cryptonight
Project description
Python binding for Monero hash functions cn_fast_hash, cn_slow_hash.
cn_fast_hash is used mainly for hashing to scalars / EC points.
cn_slow_hash is CryptoNight hash function used for mining and encryption key derivation for encrypted wallet files.
Supports CNv1, CNv2, CNv4
JIT tested on OSX + LLVM, experimental
Py2, Py3 compatible + tests with Monero test vectors.
pip install py-cryptonight
Usage
import binascii
import pycryptonight
pycryptonight.cn_fast_hash(b'1')
# hexcoded: b'c89efdaa54c0f20c7adf612882df0950f5a951637e0307cdcb4c672f298b8bc6

Build problems
The extension builds with AES extension by default. To disable this, rebuild with:
MONERO_NO_AES=1 python setup.py install
JIT
The JIT optimization is disabled by default as the implementation was not properly tested. If you want to experiment with JIT you need to compile with:
MONERO_NO_JIT=0 python setup.py install
MONERO_USE_CNV4_JIT=1 ./test.sh
To rebuild locally and test:
MONERO_NO_AES=0 MONERO_NO_JIT=0 python setup.py develop
MONERO_USE_CNV4_JIT=0 ./test.sh # JIT disabled
MONERO_USE_CNV4_JIT=1 ./test.sh # JIT enabled
