Python Binding
========================================
.. versionadded:: 1.11.14
.. highlight:: python
.. py:module:: botan
The Python binding is based on the `ffi` module of botan and the
`ctypes` module of the Python standard library.
Versioning
----------------------------------------
.. py:function:: version_major()
Returns the major number of the library version (currently, 1)
.. py:function:: version_minor()
Returns the minor number of the library version (currently, 11)
.. py:function:: version_patch()
Returns the patch number of the library version (currently, 14)
.. py:function:: version_string()
Returns a free form version string for the library
Random Number Generators
----------------------------------------
.. py:class:: rng(rng_type = 'system')
Type 'user' also allowed (userspace HKDF RNG seeded from system
rng). The system RNG is very cheap to create, as just a single file
handle or CSP handle is kept open, from first use until shutdown,
no matter how many 'system' rng instances are created. Thus it is
easy to use the RNG in a one-off way, with `botan.rng().get(32)`.
.. py:method:: get(length)
Return some bits
.. py:method:: reseed(bits = 256)
Meaningless on system RNG, on userspace RNG causes a reseed/rekey
Hash Functions
----------------------------------------
.. py:class:: hash_function(algo)
Algo is a string (eg 'SHA-1', 'SHA-384', 'Skein-512')
.. py:method:: clear()
Clear state
.. py:method:: output_length()
.. py:method:: update(x)
Add some input
.. py:method:: final()
Returns the hash of all input provided, resets
for another message.
Message Authentication Codes
----------------------------------------
.. py:class:: message_authentication_code(algo)
Algo is a string (eg 'HMAC(SHA-256)', 'Poly1305', 'CMAC(AES-256)')
.. py:method:: clear()
.. py:method:: output_length()
.. py:method:: set_key(key)
Set the key
.. py:method:: update(x)
Add some input
.. py:method:: final()
Returns the MAC of all input provided, resets
for another message with the same key.
Ciphers
----------------------------------------
.. py:class:: cipher(object, algo, encrypt = True)
The algorithm is spcified as a string (eg 'AES-128/GCM',
'Serpent/OCB(12)', 'Threefish-512/EAX').
Set the second param to False for decryption
.. py:method:: tag_length()
Returns the tag length (0 for unauthenticated modes)
.. py:method:: default_nonce_length()
Returns default nonce length
.. py:method:: update_granularity()
Returns update block size
.. py:method:: is_authenticated()
Returns True if this is an AEAD mode
.. py:method:: valid_nonce_length(nonce_len)
Returns True if nonce_len is a valid nonce len for
this mode
.. py:method:: clear()
Resets all state
.. py:method:: set_key(key)
Set the key
.. py:method:: start(nonce)
Start processing a message using nonce
.. py:method:: update(txt)
Consumes input text and returns output
.. py:method:: finish(txt = None)
Finish processing (with an optional final input). May throw if
message authentication checks fail, in which case all plaintext
previously processed must be discarded. Alternately, always
call finish with the entire message, avoiding calls to update
entirely.
Bcrypt
----------------------------------------
.. py:function:: bcrypt(passwd, rng, work_factor = 10)
Provided the password and an RNG object, returns a bcrypt string
.. py:function:: check_bcrypt(passwd, bcrypt)
Check a bcrypt hash against the provided password, returning True
iff the password matches.
PBKDF
----------------------------------------
.. py:function:: pbkdf(algo, password, out_len, iterations = 100000, salt = rng().get(12))
Runs a PBKDF2 algo specified as a string (eg 'PBKDF2(SHA-256)', 'PBKDF2(CMAC(Blowfish))').
Runs with n iterations with meaning depending on the algorithm.
The salt can be provided or otherwise is randomly chosen. In any case it is returned
from the call.
Returns out_len bytes of output (or potentially less depending on
the algorithm and the size of the request).
Returns tuple of salt, iterations, and psk
.. py:function:: pbkdf_timed(algo, password, out_len, ms_to_run = 300, salt = rng().get(12))
Runs for as many iterations as needed to consumed ms_to_run
milliseconds on whatever we're running on. Returns tuple of salt,
iterations, and psk
KDF
----------------------------------------
.. py:function:: kdf(algo, secret, out_len, salt)
Public Key
----------------------------------------
.. py:class:: public_key(object)
.. py:method:: fingerprint(hash = 'SHA-256')
.. py:class:: private_key(algo, param, rng)
Constructor creates a new private key. The paramater type/value
depends on the algorithm. For "rsa" is is the size of the key in
bits. For "ecdsa" and "ecdh" it is a group name (for instance
"secp256r1"). For "ecdh" there is also a special case for group
"curve25519" (which is actually a completely distinct key type
with a non-standard encoding).
.. py:method:: get_public_key()
Return a public_key object
.. py:method:: export()
Public Key Operations
----------------------------------------
.. py:class:: pk_op_encrypt(pubkey, padding, rng)
.. py:method:: encrypt(msg, rng)
.. py:class:: pk_op_decrypt(privkey, padding)
.. py:method:: decrypt(msg)
.. py:class:: pk_op_sign(privkey, hash_w_padding)
.. py:method:: update(msg)
.. py:method:: finish(rng)
.. py:class:: pk_op_verify(pubkey, hash_w_padding)
.. py:method:: update(msg)
.. py:method:: check_signature(signature)
.. py:class:: pk_op_key_agreement(privkey, kdf)
.. py:method:: public_value()
Returns the public value to be passed to the other party
.. py:method:: agree(other, key_len, salt)
Returns a key derived by the KDF.
