python-modhex 0.0.2

Very simple modhex library when working with yubikey OTPs.

python_modhex

When working with yubikeys, you get OTPs in modhex, which according to https://developers.yubico.com/OTP/Modhex_Converter.html

is similar to hex encoding but with a different encoding alphabet.

The alphabet is ALPHABET = "cbdefghijklnrtuv".

This module merely does what https://developers.yubico.com/OTP/Modhex_Converter.html offers as well:

• Convert a modhex string to hex.
• Convert a hex string to modhex.

Installation

pip install python_modhex
