Project description
Simple RSA
A straightforward API to perform basic RSA-based operations.
Rationale
Any cryptographic library exposes all possibilities, and it should. But sometimes you just want a simple sign
and validate
API. That is what this wrapper module around the Cryptography module is. Nothing more, nothing less.
Getting Started
The module basically exposes the following functions:
generate_key_pair()
returning a tuple of private and public keysencode(key)
returning an encoded keydecode(pem)
returning a keysign(payload, key)
returning a signaturevalidate(payload, signature, key)
returning True or an Exception
