hibpython

A simple module for haveibeenpwnd.com written in python which checks if the password has been compromised or found in a data leak using the API from haveibeenpwnd.com. Please report any bugs/flaws and suggestions to my twitter

Usage

• Clone the repository or download the zip file and extract the file to your folder with your python program

import hibpython.hibp as hibp

example_variable = hibp.checkpwn("123456")

• This will return the value (True, '37509543') where True means the password is compromised and the value 37509543 is the number of times the password was seen in the haveibeenpwnd.com database

Features

Right now the module has only one function since the API requires a paid API key.

checkpwn(password)

The user should pass the password as argument while calling this function. This function will check if the password has been compromised and returns True along with the number of times it was seen on the database.Else it returns False.

check, pwncount = hibp.checkpwn(password)

We can get the pwn count of the password in the above stated way as the checkpawn() function returns two values.

I am planning on adding one more function soon :D
