## hashPassword

hashPassword(password, digestMod=hashlib.sha512, iterations=10000, saltSize=32)

Module function to hash a password according to the PBKDF2 specification.

password
  clear text password (string)
digestMod
  hash function
iterations
  number of times hash function should be applied (integer)
saltSize
  size of the salt (integer)

Returns:
  hashed password entry according to PBKDF2 specification (string)

Up

## hashPasswordTuple

hashPasswordTuple(password, digestMod=hashlib.sha512, iterations=10000, saltSize=32)

Module function to hash a password according to the PBKDF2 specification.

password
  clear text password (string)
digestMod
  hash function
iterations
  number of times hash function should be applied (integer)
saltSize
  size of the salt (integer)

Returns:
  tuple of digestname (string), number of iterations (integer), salt (bytes) and hashed password (bytes)

Up

## pbkdf2

pbkdf2(password, salt, iterations, digestMod)

Module function to hash a password according to the PBKDF2 specification.

password
  clear text password (bytes)
salt
  salt value (bytes)
iterations
  number of times hash function should be applied (integer)
digestMod
  hash function

Returns:
  hashed password (bytes)

Up

## rehashPassword

rehashPassword(password, hashParameters)

Module function to recreate a password hash given the hash parameters.

password
  clear text password (string)
hashParameters
  hash parameters in the form 'digestmod$iterations$salt' (string)

Returns:
  hashed password (bytes)

Raises ValueError:
  the hash parameters string is not of the expected format or the digest is not one of the known ones

Up

## verifyPassword

verifyPassword(password, pwHash)

Module function to verify a password against a hash encoded password.

password
  clear text password (string)
pwHash
  hash encoded password in the form 'digestmod$iterations$salt$hashed_password' as produced by the hashPassword function (string)

Returns:
  flag indicating a successfull verification (boolean)

Raises ValueError:
  the hash is not of the expected format or the digest is not one of the known ones
