pyargon2
Simultaneously the simplest and most powerful implementation of Argon2 in Python.
Installation
pip install pyargon2
Basic Usage
The hash function supports basic password hashing using the Argon2id variant and mandates password and salt strings. The resulting hash returned is hex encoded.
from pyargon2 import hash
password = 'a strong password'
salt = 'a unique salt'
hex_encoded_hash = hash(password, salt)
Advanced Usage
Function Parameters
The hash function takes in the following parameters:
Positional
- password : A string representing a password.
- salt : A string representing a unique salt.
Keyword
- pepper : A secret string to fold into the hash of the password.
- hash_len : The length in bytes of the resulting hash.
- time_cost : The number of iterations to perform.
- memory_cost : The number of kibibytes in memory to utilise.
- parallelism : The number of independent computations chains (lanes) to run.
- flags : Flags to determine which fields are securely wiped.
- variant : Argon2 algorithm variant ('i', 'd', or 'id').
- version : Argon2 algorithm version number.
- encoding : Encoding for the returned hash type ('raw', 'hex' or 'b64').
Function Exceptions
Exceptions generated by the underlying Argon2 hashing function are raised under the Argon2Error class which can be imported as follows:
from pyargon2 import Argon2Error
