util Package

callback Module

Callback interface To be used when UI needs to be back to get info from user.

class pwman.util.callback.CLICallback

Bases: pwman.util.callback.Callback

getinput(question)

getnewsecret(question)

getsecret(question)

class pwman.util.callback.Callback

Bases: object

Callback interface. Callback classes must implement this.

error(error)

Present error to user

getinput(question)

Return text

getsecret(question)

Return key

notice(warning)

set_value(section, name, value)

exception pwman.util.config.ConfigException(message)

Bases: Exception

Basic exception for config.

exception pwman.util.config.ConfigNoConfigException(message)

Bases: pwman.util.config.ConfigException

pwman.util.config.get_pass_conf(config)

crypto_engine Module

class pwman.util.crypto_engine.CryptoEngine(salt=None, digest=None, algorithm='AES', timeout=-1, reader=None)

Bases: object

authenticate(password)

salt and digest are stored in a file or a database

callback

return call back function

changepassword(reader=<built-in function input>)

decrypt(cipher_text)

encrypt(text)

forget()

discard cipher

classmethod get(timeout=-1)

get_cryptedkey()

return _keycrypted

set_cryptedkey(key)

exception pwman.util.crypto_engine.CryptoException

Bases: Exception

pwman.util.crypto_engine.decode_AES(cipher, encoded_text)

pwman.util.crypto_engine.encode_AES(cipher, clear_text)

pwman.util.crypto_engine.generate_password(pass_len=8, uppercase=True, lowercase=True, digits=True, special_chars=True)

pwman.util.crypto_engine.get_cipher(password, salt)

Create a chiper object from a hashed password

pwman.util.crypto_engine.get_digest(password, salt)

Get a digest based on clear text password

pwman.util.crypto_engine.prepare_data(text, block_size)

prepare data before encryption so the lenght matches the expected lenght by the algorithm.

pwman.util.crypto_engine.zerome(string)

securely erase strings ... for windows: ctypes.cdll.msvcrt.memset
