v2.1.0
3c04e48

Changes:

  • New webauthn.helpers.parse_registration_options_json() and webauthn.helpers.parse_authentication_options_json() methods have been added to help replace use of Pydantic's .parse_obj() on this library's PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions and PublicKeyCredentialRequestOptions classes in projects upgrading to webauthn>=2.0.0. See Refactor Guidance below for more info (#210)
  • Updated dependencies to cryptography==42.0.5 (#212)

Refactor Guidance

Taking an example from registration: imagine a py_webauthn v1.11.1 scenario in which a project using this library wanted to retrieve output from generate_registration_options(), serialized to JSON using webauthn.helpers.options_to_json() and then stored in a cache or DB, and turn it back into an instance of PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions:

# webauthn==1.11.1
json_reg_options: dict = get_stored_registration_options(session_id)
parsed_reg_options = PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions.parse_obj(
    json_reg_options,
)

py_webauthn v2.0.0+ removed use of Pydantic so .parse_obj() is no longer available on PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions. It will become possible to refactor away this use of .parse_obj() with the new webauthn.helpers.parse_registration_options_json() in this release:

# webauthn==2.1.0
from webauthn.helpers import parse_registration_options_json

json_reg_options: dict = get_stored_registration_options(session_id)
parsed_reg_options: PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions = parse_registration_options_json(
    json_reg_options,
)

This same logic applies to calls to PublicKeyCredentialRequestOptions.parse_obj() - these calls can be replaced with the new webauthn.helpers.parse_authentication_options_json() in this release as well.
