PassTest

This is a simple beginning for some kind of library which saves password hashes in a relativly secure fashion. It actually saves a csv with a name (could be username or other identifier) and a sha1 hash and some salt.

When the class Hashes is initialized you have an object which relates to a csv file (by default ~/.PassTest).

With this object you can store, retrieve and test passwords.

Usage

Initialize

>>> from passtest import Hashes
>>> hashes = Hashes()

Create a few entries in the csv file

>>> hashes.new('SomeIdentifier', 'SomePassword')
>>> hashes.new('AnotherIdentifier', 'AnotherPassword')
>>> hashes.save()

Show me what you got

>>> hashes.items()
{'AnotherIdentifier': <Hash instance: AnotherIdentifier>, 'SomeIdentifier': <Hash instance: SomeIdentifier>}

Test a pass

>>> another_identifier = hashes.get('AnotherIdentifier')
>>> another_identifier.test_passwd('HelloWorld')  # Ouupps, wrong password
False
>>> another_identifier.test_passwd('AnotherPassword')  # Got it right this time
True

Example csv file

$ cat ~/.PassTest
